Answer:

x = 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

0.75(4x + 2) = 5 - (x + 1.5)

3x + 1.5 = 5 - x - 1.5

3x + 1.5 = -x + 3.5

3x + x = 3.5 - 1.5

4x = 2

x = 0.5

A sphere and a cylinder have the same radius and height. The volume of the cylinder is 21m. what is the volume of the sphere.

Goshia [24]

Answer:

The volume of the sphere is 14m³

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Volume of the cylinder = $21m^3$

Required

Volume of the sphere

Given that the volume of the cylinder is 21, the first step is to solve for the radius of the cylinder;

Using the volume formula of a cylinder

The formula goes thus

$V = \pi r^2h$

Substitute 21 for V; this gives

$21 = \pi r^2h$

Divide both sides by h

$\frac{21}{h} = \frac{\pi r^2h}{h}$

$\frac{21}{h} = \pi r^2$

The next step is to solve for the volume of the sphere using the following formula;

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

Divide both sides by r

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

Expand Expression

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

Substitute $\frac{21}{h} = \pi r^2$

$\frac{V}{r} = \frac{4}{3} * \frac{21}{h}$

$\frac{V}{r} = \frac{84}{3h}$

$\frac{V}{r} = \frac{28}{h}$

Multiply both sided by r

$r * \frac{V}{r} = \frac{28}{h} * r$

$V = \frac{28r}{h}$ ------ equation 1

From the question, we were given that the height of the cylinder and the sphere have equal value;

This implies that the height of the cylinder equals the diameter of the sphere. In other words

$h = D$ , where D represents diameter of the sphere

Recall that $D = 2r$

So, $h = D = 2r$

$h = 2r$

Substitute 2r for h in equation 1

$V = \frac{28r}{2r}$

$V = \frac{28}{2}$

$V = 14$

Hence, the volume of the sphere is 14m³

Given point B is located at

ELEN [110]

Answer: $\Large\boxed{Point~B'~=~(-4,~-2)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information

Point B = (-2, -4)

Reflection line: y = x

Concept:

When reflecting over the line y = x, the position of y and x in the original coordinate switches places.

This is because it is " y = x ", assuming that they could interchange

Find the coordinate of Point B'

Original (x, y) = (-2, -4)

Point B' = (x', y') = (y, x) = $\Large\boxed{(-4,~-2)}$

Please refer to the attachment below for a graphical understanding

Hope this helps!! :)

Answer:

Cost of five blouses = $145

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = cost of blouse

y = cost of skirt

15x + 2y = 505 (1)

5x + 2y = 215 (2)

Subtract (2) from (1) to eliminate y

15x - 5x = 505 - 215

10x = 290

x = 290/10

x = 29

Substitute x = 29 into (2)

5x + 2y = 215 (2)

5(29) + 2y = 215

145 + 2y = 215

2y = 215 - 145

2y = 70

y = 70/2

y = 35

x = cost of blouse = $29

y = cost of skirt = $35

How much do 5 such blouses cost?

cost of a blouse = $29

Cost of five blouses = $29 × 5

= $145

Cost of five blouses = $145
