Answer: The original number is 175

Step-by-step explanation:

The number will be represent by x .

The number is being divided by 5 so we can represent by the expression x/5.

After than is being added to 18 so we will add 18 to the expression.

x/5 + 18 .

It has to equal to 9 less than 62 and 9 less than 62 is the same as the expression 62 -9.

Whole equation will be x/5 + 18 = 62 - 9

$\frac{x}{5}$ + 18 = 62 - 9 Combine like terms on the right side

x/5 + 18 = 53 Subtract 18 from both sides

-18 -18

x/5 = 35 Multiply both side by 5.

x = 175

This means the original number is 175.

Find the missing dimension of the cone

larisa86 [58]

Answer:

h=1ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cone is:

v=πr^h/3

plug in the values (I am assuming not 1/18π but 1/18×π):

1/18π= π1/3^2h/3

Get rid of the radius:

1/3^2=1/9

Continue:

π/18= πh/3*1/9= πh/18

Remove the denominators:

π=πh

Divide both sides by π :

h=1
