Answer:
d=7/2
Step-by-step explanation:
3/4d-1/2=3/8+1/2d
multiply all by 8, to make them into whole numbers (makes it easier)
6d-4=3+4d
move terms
6-d-4d=2d
3+4=7
7=2d
d=7/2
Table B and Graph B is the correct answer
Basically apply your radius and slant height to the formula to find the surface area of a cone which is S=3.14r^2+3.14rl
Shorter <span>piece = x
longer </span><span>piece = 4x
x + 4x = 48.5
5x = 48.5
x = 48.5/5
x = 9.7 cm </span>← shorter piece
longer piece = 4x = 4 * 9.7 = 38.8 cm
