Answer:

x=92 y=23

Step-by-step explanation:

Let them be x and y respectively

so given

x-y=69

and

x/y=4 x=4y

so we can write

x-y=69

4y-y=69 3y=69 y= 69/3 = 23

now y is 23

so putting in any equation will give the value of x

x-23=69 x=92

A cube has a volume of 512 cubic mm. If all sides of the cube ae divided by 4, what will the resulting volume be?

kotegsom [21]

Volume of a cube = s³

Therefore, s³ = 512, meaning that s = 8.

The question asks what the resulting volume would be if all sides of the cube were divided by 4.

The current side measures 8, and we know that 8/4 = 2.

Thus, the resulting volume = s³ = 2³ = 8 cubic mm.

Consider the cylinder with a volume of 132π cm3. A cylinder with volume of 132 pi centimeters cubed. What is the volume of a con

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

44 pi centimeters cubed

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, base radius and height of cone are equal to to that of cylinder. Hence,

$Volume \: of \: cone \\ = \frac{1}{3} \times Volume \: of \: cylinder \\ = \frac{1}{3} \times132\pi \\ = 44\pi \: {cm}^{3}$
