Answer:

16 tons

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the first step is to change years to months because the time periods are in different units. There are 12 months in 1 year. This means that the company sells 48 tons over 12 months. 4 months is the equivalent of 1/3 of 12 months. This means that we can find the amount sold in 4 months by dividing 48 by 3. 48/3 is 16. Thus, the steel company sells 16 tons in 4 months.

Another way to find the answer is to find the unit rate. The unit rate is how many tons are sold in 1 month. Find this by dividing 48 by 12 because this represents the sales of 1 month. 48/12=4, this means that in 1 month, 4 tons of steel are sold. Next, multiply 4 times 4 to find the amount of steel sold in 4 months. 4 times 4 also gives you the same answer of 16.

Simplify x + 3x – 36.

Katena32 [7]

Hey there!!

Equation Given : x + 3x - 36

In order to solve this, we will need to combine the like terms.

What are like terms?

Like terms are terms which have the same variable, in the equation given, the variable mentioned is x and hence, the like terms are x and 3x.

Now, we will need to combine x and 3x.

Let's take x as 1x and 3x as 3x.

Now, we will need to add both these like terms.

1x + 3x

x will be common, we will need to add 1 and 3

1 + 3 is 4 and hence, 1x + 3x = 4x

Hence, the final equation would be :

4x - 36

Hence, the answer is option ( c )

Hope my answer helps!

The figure is made up of a cylinder and a sphere which has been cut in half. The radius of each half sphere is 5 mm. What is

alexgriva [62]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<em>Rounded to the nearest hundredth the volume of the composite figure is:</em>

<em>1308 33 cubic millimeters</em>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Hello! I wrote the complete question in a comment above. The volume of a cylinder is defined as:

$V_{c}=\pi r^2 h \\ \\ r:radius \\ \\ h:height$

While the volume of half a sphere is:

$V_{hs}=\frac{2}{3}\pi r^3$

Since we have 2 half spheres, then the volume of these is the same as the volume of a sphere:

$V_{s}=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3$

Then, the composite figure is:

$V=\pi r^2 h +\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3 \\ \\ V=\pi r^2(h+\frac{4}{3}r)$

The radius of the cylinder is the same of the radius of each half sphere. So:

$r=5mm \\ \\ h=10mm \\ \\ \\ V=(3.14) (5)^2((10)+\frac{4}{3}(5)) \\ \\ V=25(3.14)(10+\frac{20}{3}) \\ \\ \boxed{V\approx 1308.33mm^3}$

Need help with this, simple but I don't understand/remember how to do it.

By using definition of proportionality and Pythagorean theorem, the values of x and y associated with the geometrical system formed by two right triangles are 36 / 5 and 104 / 5, respectively.

<h3>How to analyze a geometrical system formed by two proportional right triangles</h3>

Herein we find a picture of a geometrical system formed by two proportional right triangles with two variables: {x, y} These variables can be found by using the definition of proportionality and the Pythagorean theorem:

5 / 8 = 12 / (12 + x) = 13 / y

Then, we proceed to solve the system formed by two equations:

(12 + x) / 12 = 8 / 5

12 + x = 96 / 5

x = 96 / 5 - 12

x = 36 / 5

y / 13 = 8 / 5

y = 104 / 5
