I cannot see your picture, but if the plane cutting the cylinder is indeed perpendicular to the cylinder's base, then the cross section must be square or rectangular. Going by the shape of most cylinders, I would guess that it is rectangular.
There are 12 months in a yr so 12/3=4 then 1/3x4=4/3 so 1ft and 1/3 erode each yr. C is the correct answer<span />
To solve for the slope given two lines, use the formula:
(y₂ - y₁)
----------
(x₂ - x₁)
Set one of the points as (x₁, y₁), and the other as (x₂, y₂).
(x₁, y₁) = <span>(0,32)
</span>(x₂, y₂) <span>= (100,212)
plug into corresponding places:
</span>(y₂ - y₁) (212 - 32) (180)
---------- = -------------- = -------
(x₂ - x₁) (100 - 0) (100)
180/100 is your slope
If you want simplified, it will be: 9/5
hope this helps
