Step by step solution :Step 1 : 3 - a Simplify ————— 21 Equation at the end of step 1 : (a - 3) (3 - a) ——————— ÷ ——————— 7 21 Step 2 : a - 3 Simplify ————— 7 Equation at the end of step 2 : (a - 3) (3 - a) ——————— ÷ ——————— 7 21 Step 3 : a-3 3-a Divide ——— by ——— 7 21
3.1 Dividing fractions
To divide fractions, write the divison as multiplication by the reciprocal of the divisor :
a - 3 3 - a a - 3 21 ————— ÷ ————— = ————— • ——————— 7 21 7 (3 - a)
3.2 Rewrite (3-a) as (-1) • (a-3) Canceling Out : 3.3 Cancel out (a-3) which now appears on both sides of the fraction line.
Final result : -3
21g-6f-8g
13g-6f is the answer
combine like terms
Let the five terms be: a, a + d, a + 2d, a + 3d, a + 4d, then
a + a + d + a + 2d + a + 3d + a + 4d = 5a + 15d = 40
i.e. a + 3d = 8
Also, (a + 2d)(a + 3d)(a + 4d) = 224
(a + 3d - d)(a + 3d)(a + 3d + d) = 224
(8 - d)(8)(8 + d) = 224
(8 - d)(8 + d) = 224/8 = 28
64 - d^2 = 28
d^2 = 64 - 28 = 36
d = sqrt(36) = 6
But a + 3d = 8
a + 3(6) = 8
a = 8 - 18 = -10
Therefore, the term of the sequence is: -10, -10 + 6, -10 + 2(6), -10 + 3(6), -10 + 4(6)
= -10, -4, -10 + 12, -10 + 18, -10 + 24
= -10, -4, 2, 8, 14
The volume is 905.32 i believe
12(12)=144, 144(3.14)=452.16, 452.16(6)=2712.96, 2712.96/3=904.32
