We are given the function –2x – 4 + 5x = 8 and is asked in the problem to solve for the variable x in the function. In this case, we can first group the like terms and put them in their corresponding sides:
-2x + 5x =8+4
Then, do the necessary operations.
3x = 12
x = 4.
The variable x has a value of 4.
Answer:
8 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
The surface area of a cone (without the base) is given by:
Surface area = pi*r*s
Where r is the base radius and s is the slant height.
The smaller cone has a surface area of 41.6pi in2 and a radius of 6.4 inches, so the slant height is:
41.6pi = pi*r*s
41.6 = 6.4s
s = 6.5 in
If the cones are similar, the radius and the slant height increase in the same proportion, so we have that:
r'/s' = r/s = 6.4/6.5
s' = r'*6.5/6.4
So for the larger cone, we have:
65pi = pi*r'*s'
65 = r'*r'*6.5/6.4
r'^2 = 64
r' = 8 inches
Let us convert all figures into decimals so that we can compare them easily.
Monday 0.3
Tuesday 15% = 0.15
Wednesday 1/6 = 0.1666
Thursday 0.2
Friday 1/8 = 0.125
Clearly, I spent the least amount of time on Friday using IT and the time is 0.125 or 1/8.
The answer is b. the data shows that the authors connot make a determination either way with this data.
Change in snow = 2 - 1.6 = 0.4 ft
-> percent change = 0.4/2 * 100% = 0.2 * 100% = 20%
