So the ration is 4:7

The total of houses is 32 new houses. What I did was I divided 32 by 4:

32/4 = 8

That means that the ratio (4:7) would be multiplied by 8 (only the :7 part):

7 * 8 = 56

There are 56 old houses (the ratio is now 32:56)

Thank you and can you please give me brainly :3

Find the volume of a cylinder with diameter 8 inches and height 9 1/2 inches

marta [7]

Answer:

$V=152\pi in^{2}$ in terms or pi

$V=477.52in^{2}$ simplified

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we are using the Cylinder's volume formula:

$V=\pi r^{2} h$

where

$V$ is the volume of the cylinder

$r$ is the radius of the cylinder

Remember that radius is half the diameter, so we can divide the diameter of our cylinder by 2 to find its radius: $r=\frac{d}{2} =\frac{8in}{2} =4in$ . Now, 9 1/2 inches is 9 and a half inches, so $h=9.5in$ .

Replacing values:

$V=\pi (4in)^{2} (9.5in)$

$V=\pi (16in^{2})(9.5in)$

$V=152\pi in^{2}$

$V=477.52in^{2}$

We can conclude that the volume of our cylinder is $V=152\pi in^{2}$ in terms of pi, or $V=477.52in^{2}$ simplified.

Solving systems of equations using substitution/elimination

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define Systems

y = -7x + 6

y = -10x

Step 2: Solve for x

Substitution

Substitute in y [1st Equation]: -10x = -7x + 6
[Addition Property of Equality] Add 7x on both sides: -3x = 6
[Division Property of Equality] Divide -3 on both sides: x = -2

Step 3: Solve for y

Substitute in x [2nd Equation]: y = -10(-2)
Multiply: y = 20
