Answer:

26.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, BD is a median. As it divides the AC equally, that's why it will AD=CD. Given, AD= 6x+10 and CD= 2x+12

Now, AD= CD

or, 6x+10=2x+12

or, 6x-2x= 12-10

or, 4x= 2

or, x= 1/2

So the value of x is 1/2. As BD divided AC equally, both AD and CD will be equal and AD+CD= AC.

So, 6x+10+2x+12= AC

or, 8x+22= AC

or, 8 X (1/2) + 22= AC

or, 4+22 = AC

or, AC= 26.=

Select the correct answer.

Kaylis [27]

For this case we have that by definition, the volume of a rectangular prism is given by:

$V = A_ {b} * h$

Where:

$A_ {b}:$ It is the area of the base of the prism

h: It is the height

$A_ {b} = w * l$

Where:

w: is the width

l: is the length

According to the data of the statement we have:

$w = 16 \ in\\l = 4h\\V = 4,096 \ in ^ 3$

Substituting the data we have:

$A_ {b} = 16 * 4h = 64h\\64h * h = 4,096\\64h ^ 2 = 4,096\\h ^ 2 = \frac {4096} {64}\\h ^ 2 = 64\\h = \pm \sqrt {64}\\$

We choose the positive value: $h = 8$

So the height is $8 \ in$

Answer:

$8 \ in$

The ratio of the Areas of the bases of these cones is 9 to 4.

Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is something you learn in Geometry. Gotta love Geometry and all of its hundreds of rules for triangles and circles and all that good stuff!!

The rule for similar figures is

ratio of perimeter (one-to-one)-->area (square the one-to-one)-->volume (cube the one-to-one).

We are given area. You CANNOT CUBE THE AREA MEASURES TO GET TO THE VOLUME!! You have to find the one-to-one first and then go forward from there.

If the area is the one-to-one squared, then

$\frac{\sqrt{9} }{\sqrt{4} }=\frac{3}{2}$

The one-to-one is 3:2. To get to the volume now, cube those one-to-one values:

$\frac{3^3}{2^3}=\frac{27}{8}$
