Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

You have 2 points to solve the equation y = mx + b. After finding m, use either of the points to find b.

Formula

y = mx + b

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

Solution

y2 = 13
y1 = 5
x2 = 0
x1 = 24

m = (13 - 5)/(0 - 24)

m = 8 / - 24

m = - 1/3

y = mx + b

y = -1/3 x + b

Use (0,13) as the point.

13 = -1/3 * 0 + b

13 = b

The y intercept = (0,13)

A cylinder has a height of 6 meters and a radius of 3 meters. What is its volume? Use ≈ 3.14 and round your answer to the near

bija089 [108]

Answer:

169.56 m³

Step-by-step explanation:

» Concepts

The volume of a cylinder is how much space there is inside the cylinder. The formula to find the volume is πr²h, where r = radius and h = height. Once you get the volume, you have to add <unit>³.

» Application

We are given the radius as three meters and the height as six meters; we also have to use π as 3.14. Now, we just have to plug in these values into the aforementioned formula.
