Two containers designed to hold water are side by side, both in the shape of a cylinder. Container A has a radius of 11 feet and

a height of 18 feet. Container B has a radius of 12 feet and a height of 14 feet. Container A is full of water and the water is pumped into Container B until Conainter B is completely full.
To the nearest tenth, what is the percent of Container A that is full after the pumping is complete?

Answer: The percentage ≅ 48.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise how to find the volume of a container shaped cylinder

- The volume of any container = area of its base × its height

- The base of the cylinder is a circle, area circle = 2 π r,

where r is the length of its radius

* In container A:

∵ r = 13 feet , height = 13 feet

∴ Its volume = π (13)² × (13) = 2197π feet³

* In container B:

∵ r = 9 feet , height = 14 feet

∴ Its volume = π (9)² × (14) = 1134π feet³

* So to fill container B from container A, you will take from

container A a volume of 1134π feet³

- The volume of water left in container A = 2197π - 1134π = 1063π feet³

* To find the percentage of the water that is full after pumping

is complete, divide the volume of water left in container A

by the original volume of the container multiplied by 100

∴ The percentage = (1063π/2197π) × 100 = 48.3841 ≅ 48.4%

Answer:

400 square meters

Step-by-step explanation:

We can first solve this problem with each unit representing 1 centimeter, and then scale up at the very end. The shape that we have a parallelogram. The base is 8 cm, and the height is 2 cm. The formula for the area of a parallelogram is just $bh$ , so the area of the parallelogram is 16 square centimeters. However, now we scale up. Since each centimeter correlates to 5 meters, each little box will correlate to 25 square meters. Therefore, $16 \cdot 25 = \boxed{400}$ square meters is our answer

A student moves into a bigger apartment that rents for $550 per month. That rent is $300 less than twice what she had been payin

Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Her former rent is $ x

Twice the former rent: 2*x = 2x

$300 less than 2x: 2x - 300

2x - 300 = 550

Add 300 to both sides

2x - 300 + 300 = 550 + 300

2x = 850

Divide both sides by 2

2x/2 = 850/2

x = 425

Her former rent = $425

Use the divergence theorem to find the outward flux of the vector field F(xyz)= 4x^2 i + 4y^2 j + 3z^2 k across the boundary of

Pavel [41]

$\vec F(x,y,z)=4x^2\,\vec\imath+4y^2\,\vec\jmath+3z^2\,\vec k\implies\nabla\cdot\vec F=8x+8y+6z$

Let $S$ be the surface of the rectangular prism bounded by the planes $x=0$ , $x=a$ , $y=0$ , $y=b$ , $z=0$ , and $z=c$ . By the divergence theorem, the integral of $\vec F$ over $S$ is given by the integral of $\nabla\cdot\vec F$ over the interior of $S$ (call it $R$ ):

$\displaystyle\iint_S\vec F\cdot\mathrm d\vec S=\iiint_R(\nabla\cdot\vec F)\,\mathrm dV$

$=\displaystyle\int_0^c\int_0^b\int_0^a(8x+8y+6z)\,\mathrm dx\,\mathrm dy\,\mathrm dz=\boxed{abc(4a+4b+3c)}$

|3x-7| + 7 = 9 What is the first solution?<br><br> Plzzz help

posledela

Answer:

3 and 5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Solving in steps:</u>

|3x-7| + 7 = 9
|3x-7| = 2

<u>1. If 3x - 7 > 0</u>

3x - 7 = 2
3x = 9
x = 3

<u>2. If 3x - 7 < 0</u>

3x - 7 = -2
3x = 5
x = 5/3
