First make the 62.4% as a decimal which is 0.624. Next you want to realize that the word "is" stands in place of an equal sign and the word "of" shows that you need to multiply. You can come up with the formula,
17.16 = 0.624x
and all you need to do is divide both sides by 0.624 and you get your answer.
x = 27.5
Constant. more ... A fixed value. In Algebra, a constant is a number on its own, or sometimes a letter such as a, b or c to stand for a fixed number. Example: in "x + 5 = 9", 5 and 9 are constants.
Answer:
SAS postulate
Step-by-step explanation:
Since they want the unit of volume to be cm^3, first we have to convert the values given from inch into cm
=> 12 in = 30.48cm
4 in = 10.16cm
14 in = 35.56cm
Since both of the figures are cylinders, we have to find them one by one
Find the volume of the upper cylinder
Formula: V = pi*r^2*h
We know, pi = 3,
radius = diameter of base/2
=> r = 30.48cm/2 = 15.24cm
height = 30.48cm
We get V=3*(15.24)^2*30.48=21237.6cm^3
Find the volume of lower cylinder
Formula: V = pi*r^2*h
We know, pi = 3,
radius = diameter of base/2
=> r = 35.56cm/2 = 17.78cm
height = 10.16cm
We get
V = 3*(17.78)^2*10.16 = 9635.6cm^3
Therefore, the volume of the object is
V = 21237.6cm^3 + 9635.6cm^3
= 30873.2cm^3.
