Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

determine the numerical length of AC

We know that Ac is equaled to ab and bc because they are the segements between ac  

                3x                                4x+8

A-----------------------------B----------------------------------C

|<----------------------------5x+10 --------------------------->|

AB + BC = AC

solving for x

3x + 4X + 8 = 5X + 10

3x+4x-5x= 10-8

2x=2

x=1

Now sub that in for ac

AC= 5x +10

AC= 5(1) +10

AC= 5 +10

AC = 15

2. Describe the means-extremes property.
GREYUIT [131]

Step-by-step explanation:

For example:

Ex: 2:3 :: 6:9

In this question, the means are 3 and 6.

The extremes are 2 and 9.

We use this method to find whether the two ratios are equal or not.

We multiply the means and the extremes, and if there products are same, then these two ratios are proportional.

If these two ratios are proportional, their "means" = "extremes"

=> Means = Extremes

=> 3 x 6 = 2 x 9

=> 18 = 18

So, these two ratios are proportional.

Hope this helps you.

How does the volume of a sphere compare to that of a cylinder with a height and radius equal to the radius of the sphere?
disa [49]

1) The height of the cylinder is equal to the diameter of the sphere.

3) The radius of the sphere is half the height of the cylinder.

5) The volume of the sphere is two-thirds the volume of the cylinder.

Hope this helped! :)
