The stalactites become 0.004 + 0.006 = 0.01 inches closer each year, and begin 10 feet apart, or 120 inches apart.
let y be the distance between them, and x be the number of years that go by:
y = -0.01x + 120
We want to find where y = 0, where they meet:
0 = -0.01x + 120 Add 0.01x to both sides
0.01x = 120 Multiply both sides by 100
x = 12,000
The stalagmite and stalactite will meet in 12,000 years
Answer:
The area of the circle is 19.5 in²
Step-by-step explanation:
First of all to solve this problem we have to know the formula to calculate the volume of a cone
v = volume = 52 in³
r = radius
h = height = 8 in
π = 3.14
v = 1/3 * π * r² * h
we solve r
3 * v /h * π = r²
we replace the known values
3 * 52 in³ / 3.14 * 8 in = r²
156 in³ / 25.12 in = r²
6.21 in² = r²
√6.21 in² = r
2.49 in = r
now that we have the radius we need to use the area formula of a circle:
a = area
r = radius = 2.49 in
π = 3.14
a = π * r²
we replace the known values
a = 3.14 * (2.49 in)²
a = 3.14 * 6.21 in²
a = 19.5 in²
The area of the circle is 19.5 in²
Answer:
23
Step-by-step explanation:
[ - 6 * x^2 * y^8 + 12* x * y^3 - 36 * x * y^2 ] / [6*x*y^2] =
[-6x^2 y^8 ] / [6xy^2] + [12x y^3] / [6xy^2] - [36xy^2] / [6xy^2] =
- xy^6 + 2y - 6
Answer: - xy^6 + 2y - 6
