Answer:

Solution: Convert the lot dimensions to feet

35 yards ×3 feet1 yard=105 feet

50 yards ×3 feet1 yard=150 feet

So the area of the entire lot is 105 feet×150 feet=15,750 square feet.

Therefore the percent of the lot NOT covered by Dana's house will be

15,750−160015,750≈0.898≈90%.

Solution: Convert the house area to square yards

Step-by-step explanation:

1 yard=3 feet,

so

1 square yard=3 feet×3 feet=9 square feet.

Therefore, Dana's house covers

1600 square feet×1 square yard9 square feet≈177.8 square yards.

On the other hand, Dana's lot is 35 yards×50 yards=1,750 yards.

The percentage of Dana's lot NOT covered by her house is:

1,750−177.81,750≈0.898≈90%

The top of a cylinder is sliced off by a plane. Determine volume of the bottom portion of the cylinder.
notka56 [123]

Answer:

Volume of bottom of cylinder = Volume of entire cylinder - Volume of top of cylinder

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have the volume of a cylinder given by

Volume of a cylinder = πr²h

Where the cylinder is cut by a plane into portions of heights, bottom a and top b we have

Height of bottom of is then

Height = h - b

Therefore, volume of bottom of cylinder = π·r²h = π·r²(h - b)

Volume of bottom of cylinder = π·r²·h - π·r²b

Volume of bottom of cylinder = Volume of entire cylinder - Volume of top of cylinder.

Step-by-step explanation:

you <u>subtract the y-values</u> (-1-1=-2) then <u>subtract the x-values</u> (6-4=2) then divide the sum of the y-values by the sum of the x-values

\frac{-2}{2} which simplifies to a slope of -1
