Step-by-step explanation:
The standard form of a quadratic is
We will use the x and y values from each of our 3 points to find a, b, and c. Filling in the x and y values from each point:
First point (-5, 0):
and
0 = 25a - 5b + c
Second point (9, 0):
and
0 = 81a + 9b + c
Third point (8, -39):
and
-39 = 64a + 8b + c
Use the elimination method of solving systems on the first 2 equations to eliminate the c. Multiply the first equation by -1 to get:
-25a + 5b - c = 0
81a + 9b + c = 0
When the c's cancel out you're left with
56a + 14b = 0
Now use the second and third equations and elimination to get rid of the c's. Multiply the second equation by -1 to get:
-81a - 9b - c = 0
64a + 8b + c = -39
When the c's cancel out you're left with
-17a - 1b = -39
Between those 2 bolded equations, eliminate the b's. Do this by multiplying the second of the 2 by 14 to get:
56a + 14b = 0
-238a - 14b = -546
When the b's cancel out you're left with
-182a = -546 and
a = 3
Use this value of a to back substitute to find b:
56a + 14b = 0 so 56(3) + 14b = 0 gives you
168 + 14b = 0 and 14b = -168 so
b = -12
Now back sub in a and b to find c:
0 = 25a - 5b + c gives you
0 = 75+ 60 + c so
0 = 135 + c and
c = -135
Put that all together into the standard form equation to get
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
Find the volume of the cylinder
The volume of the cylinder is equal to
we have
---> the radius is half the diameter
substitute
step 2
Find the volume of the cone
The volume of the cone is equal to
we have
we have
---> the radius is the same that the radius of the cylinder
substitute
step 3
Find the volume of the plastic object
we know that
The volume of the plastic object is equal to the volume of the cylinder minus the volume of the cone
so
assume
