Mathematics

kirza4 [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

2 times as large

Step-by-step explanation:

For the original cylinder, we can say that the volume of a cylinder is equal to V= πr²h. For this cylinder, we can say that  V = π * radius² * height. The radius is equal to 1/2 of the diameter, so the original radius is 8/2 = 4. Therefore, the volume of the original cylinder is V = π * radius² * height = π * 4² * 8 = π * 16 * 8 = π * 128

For the new cylinder, "twice as wide" means that the diameter is twice as big as the original one. Half the height means that the height is halved. The new diameter is therefore 8 * 2 = 16 (meaning that the new radius is 16/2=8) while the new height is 8/2 = 4. The new volume is thus

V = π * radius² * height = π * 8² * 4 = π * 64 * 4 = π * 256

To see how much larger the new tank volume is, we can divide (new tank volume) by (old tank volume), resulting in

π * 256 / (π *128) = 2

Triangles WSR and TVR are similar. Find x.
Vlad [161]

They are similar. Set the proportions equal to each other

(x + 8)/8 = (x+14)/12

Cross multiply

(x + 8)/8 (8)(12) = (x + 14)/12 (12)(8)

12(x + 8) = 8(x + 14)

Distribute the 12 and 8 to the corresponding monomials inside the parenthesis

12(x + 8) = 12x + 96

8(x + 14) = 8x + 112

12x + 96 = 8x + 112

Isolate the x. Subtract 8x from both sides and 96 from both sides

12x (-8x) + 96 (-96) = 8x (-8x) + 112 (-96)

12x - 8x = 112 - 96

4x = 16

Isolate the equal sign. Divide 4 from both sides

4x/4 = 16/4

x = 16/4

x = 4

4 is your answer for x
