Answer:

x is equal to 2.5 and -4.5

Step-by-step explanation:

-4(x + 1)² - 3 = -51

-4(x² + 2x + 1) - 3 = -51

-4x² - 8x -3 - 3 = -51

-4x² - 8x - 6 = -51

-4x² - 8x = -45

-4(x^2 + 2x) = -45

-4(x^2 + 2x + 1) = -49

-4(x + 1)² = -49

(x + 1)² = 49/4

x + 1 = ± √(49/4)

x + 1 = ± 7/2

x = -1 ± 3.5

x = 2.5, -4.5

The shapes are similar.
When two figures are similar, the ratios of the lengths of their corresponding sides are equal.
Therefore,
$\frac{42}{(15 + 42)} = \frac{x}{10 + x}$

Simplify:
$\frac{42}{57} = \frac{x}{10 + x}$
Cross multiply:
42(10+x) = 57x
420 + 42x = 57x
420 = 57x - 42x
420 = 15x
x = (420÷15)
x = 28

A cone and a sphere both have a radius of 1. If you fill the cone with liquid, and pour it into the sphere, it fits exactly. Wha

PtichkaEL [24]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

First, solve for the volume of the sphere, then solve for the height of the cone using the volume of the sphere (which is said to be equal to the volume of the cone) and the radius given.

Volume formula of Sphere

V = $\frac{4}{3} \pi r^2$

Substitute 1 in for r

$\frac{4}{3} \pi (1)^2 = \frac{4}{3} \pi = 4.189$ = Volume

Finding the Height of a Cone

Volume formula for Cone: $V = \pi r^2\frac{h}{3}$

Solve for h

Multiply both sides by 3, then divide by pi and r^2.

$h = \frac{3V}{\pi r^2}$

Plug in the volume and the radius.

$h = \frac{3(4.189)}{\pi (1)^2}$

Simplify

$h = \frac{12.567}{\pi }$

h ≈ 4

4 is approximately the height.

Teach me how to add this problem

Arada [10]

start with the ones and every time it goes over ten take the first number and add it to the tens for example 1+8+4+8=21 take the one and put it in the one spot below. Then take the 2 and add it to the six in the tens spot so it would be Instead of 6+8+3+2 it would be 8+8+3+2 which would equal 21 then put the 1 u=in the ten spot below add the 2 to the hundreds spot making is 5+5+7=4=14 put the 4 Below and add the 1 the the thousands making it 3+4+5+1=13 put the one on the ten thousands and put the three below the whole problem would be 13,411.
