Answer:

y ≈ 12.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the SOH CAH TOA identity to get the value of y as shown;

sin theta = opposite/hypotenuse

opposite = y

hypotenuse = 15cm

theta = 180-(35+90)

theta = 180-125

theta = 55 degrees

sin 55 = y/15

y = 15sin55

y = 12.287

y ≈ 12.3 (to the nearest tenth)

Carl has two cylinders that are the same height, but the volume of the second cylinder is 36 times the volume of the first cylin

Natasha2012 [34]

Let radius of first cylinder is r and that of other is R and their height is h.
so vol.of first cylinder×36
=vol.of second cylinder
36×pi×r^2×h=pi×R^2×h
now pi and h cancel on both sides
so r^2×36=R^2
Squareroot36r^2=R
6r=R
so radius of second cylinder = 6 times radius of first cylinder

Which function has the same y-intercept as the line graphed below?

KatRina [158]

Answer:

D. y + 4 = 2x

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph has a y-intercept at (0, -4).

A. y=16 - 3x/4

if x = 0, y = 16. FALSE.

B. 24 + 3y = 6x

If x = 0, 24 + 3y = 0
