If 2x − 4(x + 1) = −12, evaluate x2 − 1.

1 answer:

6 0

2x-4(x+1)=-13
1) we solve this equation:
2x-4(x+1)=-12
2x-4x-4=-12
-2x=-12+4
-2x=-8
x=-8/-2
x=4

2) we evalute x²-1
x²-1=4²-1=16-1=15

Answer:

$V=97.6\ in^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the volume of the cylinder

The volume of the cylinder is equal to

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

we have

$r=4/2=2\ in$ ---> the radius is half the diameter

$h=8\ in$

substitute

$V=\pi (2)^{2}(8)\\\\V=32\pi\ in^3$

step 2

Find the volume of the cone

The volume of the cone is equal to

$V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2} h$

we have

$r=2\ in$ ---> the radius is the same that the radius of the cylinder

$h=0.70\ in$

substitute

$V=\frac{1}{3}\pi (2)^{2} (0.70)\\\\V=0.93\pi\ in^3$

step 3

Find the volume of the plastic object

we know that

The volume of the plastic object is equal to the volume of the cylinder minus the volume of the cone

$V=32\pi-0.93\pi=31.07\pi\ in^3$

assume

$\pi=3.1416$

$V=31.07(3.1416)=97.6\ in^3$
