One number is 9 more than twice another. If their difference is 22, what is the larger number?

1 answer:

4 0

Let, the numbers are: x, y
So, Equations will be: x - y = 22
x = 2y + 9

Substitute the value of x in first equation,
2y + 9 - y = 22
y = 22 - 9
y = 13

x - 13 = 22
x = 22 + 13 = 35

In short, Larger number would be 35

Hope this helps!

A volcano in the approximate shape of a cone has a diameter of 16 km and a height of 1.95 km. Which estimate best approximates t

masha68 [24]

To find the approximate volume of the volcano, you will use the formula for finding the volume of a cone.

V = 1/3 x pi x r^2 x h
1/3 x 3.14 x 8^2 x 1.95
V = 130.624

The approximate volume of the volcano is 131 cubic kilometers.
