An hourglass consists of two sets of congruent composite figures on either end. Each composite figure is made up of a cone and a

cylinder, as shown below:

Each cone of the hourglass has a height of 18 millimeters. The total height of the sand within the top portion of the hourglass is 54 millimeters. The radius of both cylinder and cone is 8 millimeters. Sand drips from the top of the hourglass to the bottom at a rate of 10π cubic millimeters per second. How many seconds will it take until all of the sand has dripped to the bottom of the hourglass?

Answer: third option 268.8

Explanation:

For this kind of proble it is very important that you attach the figure because it contains important information to understand the question.

I have attached the figure for better understanding.

1) The top portion (and the bottom is congruent but rotated 180°) of the hourglass is a figure equivalent to a cylinder on top and a cone on bottom.

So the total volume contained in the top portion is the volume of a cylinder + the volume of a cone.

This is how you calculate the volume of the top portion:

1) The height of the cylinder is 54 mm - 18 mm = 36 mm

2) The formula for the volume of a cylinder is V = π (radius)^2 * height

radius = 8 mm
height = 36 mm

=> V = π(8mm)^2 * 36 mm = 2304π (mm)^3

3) The formula for the volume of a cone is V = (1/3)π(radius)^2 * height

radius = 8 mm
height = 18 mm

V = (1/3)π(8mm)^2 * 18 mm = 384π (mm)^3

4) The total volume of the top portion is volumen of the cylindrical part + voume of the cone:

Total voluem = 2304π (mm)^3 + 384π (mm)^3 = 2688π (mm)^3

5) To find the number of seconds <span>it take until all of the sand has dripped to the bottom of the hourglass you have to divide the total volumen of sand by the rate:

time in seconds = total volume of sand / rate of dripping

time in seconds = [2688 π (mm)^3 ] / [10π (mm)^3 / s] = 268.8 s

That is the answer: 268.8 s

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First expand the expression so you know the coefficients of x and y.

4(2x+y+2y) = 4(2x+3y) = 8x+12y

8x+12y  =  8x+12y

6x+7y  ≠  6x+12y

8x+y+2y  = 8x + 3y ≠  8x+12y

8x+4y+8y = 8x+12y = 8x+12y

Answer

x>21.2

Step-by-step explanation:

7.55x+100>160

-100 on both sides

7.55x>60

/ 7.55 on both sides

x>21.2

That is a bit of a high number, but im pretty sure that I did the math right

> is less than or equal to in this equation bc idk how to make the real sign

7x-3y=-7 slope of line perpendicular
kap26 [50]

Answer: -3/7

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to find the slope of the line

y = mx + c where m is the slope of the line
Rearrange the equation and we get

3y = 7x + 7
y = 7x/3 + 7/3

So the slope of the line 7x - 3y = -7 is 7/3

There is another rule that states: The product of the slopes of two lines perpendicular to each other is -1

So, the slope of the line perpendicular to 7x - 3y = -7 is -1/(7/3) = -3/7

The answer is option B "<span>The difference between 6 and 4 is doubled in 2." Since how 6-4=2 then 2×2=4 which means it is split into two different parts.

Would be solved this way:
