Answer:

the correct choice is marked

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the smaller number. Then the larger number is 8x, and the difference is ...

8x -x = 280

7x = 280 . . . . . simplify

x = 40 . . . . . . divide by 7

The larger number is 8x = 8(40) = 320.

<em>Additional comment</em>

Effectively, we have solved for the multiplier (40) that gives the ratio with 320 on top and a difference between top and bottom of 280:

$\dfrac{8}{1}=\dfrac{8\cdot40}{1\cdot40}=\dfrac{320}{40}$

Solve the inequality.<br><br> x − 10 < 6 − 5x thanks. i dont feel like doing this

Ivenika [448]

move all the combine like terms together

-5x move it to the left side of the sign

-10 move it to the right side of the sign

x+5x<6+10

do the math

6x<16

divide 6 by both sides

x<2.67

The radius of a cone is decreasing at a constant rate of 7 inches per second, and the volume is decreasing at a rate of 948 cubi

nadezda [96]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We have volume of cone as

$V=\frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h$

and for a cone always r/h = constant

Given that r' = rate of change of radius = -7 inches/sec

(Negative sign because decresing)

V' =- 948 in^3/sec

Radius = 99 inches and volume = 525 inches

Height at this instant = $\frac{525}{\frac{1}{3} \pi (99)^2} \\=\frac{0.1607}{\pi}$

Let us differentiate the volume equation with respect to t using product rule

$V=\frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h\\V' = \frac{1}{3} \pi[2rhr'+r^2 h']\\-948 = \frac{1}{3} \pi[2(99)(-7)(\frac{0.1607}{\pi})+99^2 h']\\$

$-948 = \frac{1}{3} \pi[2(99)(-7)(\frac{0.1607}{\pi})+99^2 h']\\-948 = 33(3.14)(-2.25/3.14 + 99 h')\\-9.149=-0.72+99h'\\-8.429 = 99h'\\h' = 0.08514$

Rate of change of height = 0.08514 in/sec
