Answer:

x=-5

Step-by-step explanation:

4-2(x+7)=3(x+5)

Distribute

4 - 2x -14 = 3x +15

Combine like terms

-2x-10 = 3x+15

Add 2x to each side

-2x -10 +2x = 3x+2x+15

-10 =5x+15

Subtract 15 to each side

-10-15 =5x-15+15

-25 = 5x

Divide each side by 5

-25/5 = 5x/5

-5 =x

How does the volume of an oblique cone change if the height is reduced to 2/3 of its original size and the radius is doubled

spayn [35]

The volume of oblique cone = $\frac{1}{3} \pi r^{2} h$

Now radius is doubled is now it is 2r

And height is reduced to 2/3 of its original size that is 2/3 h

So plugging the values we get volume

New Volume = $\frac{1}{3} \pi (2r)^2 (\frac{2}{3} h)$

= $\frac{1}{3} \pi 4r^2 (\frac{2}{3} h) = \frac{8}{6} \pi r^{2} h =\frac{8}{2} (\frac{1}{3} \pi r^{2} h )$ $=4*(\frac{1}{3} \pi r^{2} h )$

It means the volume becomes 4 times

It should be a 10% tip. To simplify the answer, The decimal moves one space (which would be equal to a tenth) so it’s a 10%
