Answer:

4(x + 5)(x - 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

4x² + 8x - 60 ← factor out 4 from each term

= 4(x² + 2x - 15) ← factor the quadratic

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 15) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (+ 2)

The factors are + 5 and - 3 , since

+ 5 × - 3 = - 15 and + 5 - 3 = + 2, then

x² + 2x - 15 = (x + 5)(x - 3)

Then

4x² + 8x - 60 = 4(x + 5)(x - 3) ← in factored form

Answer: 3617.28 cubic millimeters.

Step-by-step explanation: I used the formula of a sphere since a gumball is a shape of a sphere and plugged the radius into the formula.

I got that the volume of a single gumball is 288π cubic millimeters.

Since there are 4 gumballs, i multiplied the volume by 4.

The total volume of the four gumballs add up to be 1152π .

Lastly, I multiplied 1152 by pi

and got the answer to be 3617.28 cubic millimeters

Hi! I need help with the attached question in calc. Thank you:)

Elena L [17]

Answer:

3π square units.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the disk method.

Since we are revolving around AB, we have a vertical axis of revolution.

So, our representative rectangle will be horizontal.

R₁ is bounded by y = 9x.

So, x = y/9.

Our radius since our axis is AB will be 1 - x or 1 - y/9.

And we are integrating from y = 0 to y = 9.

By the disk method (for a vertical axis of revolution):

$\displaystyle V=\pi \int_a^b [R(y)]^2\, dy$

So:

$\displaystyle V=\pi\int_0^9\Big(1-\frac{y}{9}\Big)^2\, dy$

Simplify:

$\displaystyle V=\pi\int_0^9(1-\frac{2y}{9}+\frac{y^2}{81})\, dy$

Integrate:

$\displaystyle V=\pi\Big[y-\frac{1}{9}y^2+\frac{1}{243}y^3\Big|_0^9\Big]$

Evaluate (I ignored the 0):

$\displaystyle V=\pi[9-\frac{1}{9}(9)^2+\frac{1}{243}(9^3)]=3\pi$

The volume of the solid is 3π square units.

Note:

You can do this without calculus. Notice that R₁ revolved around AB is simply a right cone with radius 1 and height 9. Then by the volume for a cone formula:

$\displaystyle V=\frac{1}{3}\pi(1)^2(9)=3\pi$

We acquire the exact same answer.

Answer:

(2.54×12) ×5280

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are 2.54cm in an inch, multiply 2.54 by 12 to find out how many cm there are in a foot. Then you multiply that by 5280
