Answer:

The factor is $\frac{3}{2}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Cylinders A and B are similar solids.

The base of cylinder A has a circumference of $4\pi$ units.

The base of cylinder B has an area of $9\pi$ units.

To find : The dimensions of cylinder A are multiplied by what factor to produce the corresponding dimensions of cylinder B?

Solution :

Let x be the factor.

So, according to question,

$\text{Dimension of cylinder A}\times x = \text{Dimension of cylinder B}$ ........[1]

The dimension refer here are radius of both cylinders.

In cylinder A,

Circumference of base is $4\pi$ units.

Circumference of base of cylinder is $C=2\pi r$

$4\pi=2\pi r$

$r=2$

The dimension of cylinder A is r=2

In cylinder B,

Area of cylinder is $9\pi$ units.

Area of base of cylinder is $A=\pi r^2$

$9 \pi=\pi r^2$

$r^2=9$

$r=3$

The dimension of cylinder B is r=3

Substitute in [1]

$2x=3$

$x=\frac{3}{2}$

Therefore, The factor is $\frac{3}{2}$ .

The figure shows the layout of a symmetrical pool in a water park. What is the area of this pool rounded to the tens place? Use

k0ka [10]

Answer:

$2489ft^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The pool are is divided into 4 separated shapes: 2 circular sections and 2 isosceles triangles. Basically, to calculate the whole area, we need to find the area of each section. Due to its symmetry, both triangles are equal, and both circular sections are also the same, so it would be enough to calculate 1 circular section and 1 triangle, then multiply it by 2.

<h3>Area of each triangle:</h3>

From the figure, we know that <em>b = 20ft </em>and <em>h = 25ft. </em>So, the area would be:

$A_{t}=\frac{b.h}{2}=\frac{(20ft)(25ft)}{2}=250ft^{2}$

<h3>Area of each circular section:</h3>

From the figure, we know that $\alpha =2.21 radians$ and the radius is $R=30ft$ . So, the are would be calculated with this formula:

$A_{cs}=\frac{\pi R^{2}\alpha}{360\°}$

Replacing all values:

$A_{cs}=\frac{(3.14)(30ft)^{2}(2.21radians)}{6.28radians}$

Remember that $360\°=6.28radians$

Therefore, $A_{cs}=994.5ft^{2}$

Now, the total are of the figure is:

$A_{total}=2A_{t}+2A{cs}=2(250ft^{2} )+2(994.5ft^{2})\\A_{total}=500ft^{2} + 1989ft^{2}=2489ft^{2}$

Therefore the area of the symmetrical pool is $2489ft^{2}$

Ariana starts with 100 milligrams of a radioactive substance. The amount of the substance decreases by 20% each week for a numbe

Kruka [31]

Answer:

D. It is the product of the initial amount and the decay factor after w weeks.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that Ariana starts with 100 milligrams of the substance. The number 100 in the expression likely represents this amount, <em>the initial amount</em>. It is multiplied by another number, so is part of a product. (It is not part of a difference, and is not something that is raised to a power.)

The factor (1 -0.2) represents the fraction remaining at the end of a week. That number raised to the power w will represent the fraction remaining at the end of w weeks. This fraction can reasonably be referred to as "the decay factor after w weeks."

Hence, the expression represents ...

<em>the product of the initial amount and the decay factor after w weeks</em>

A baker decorates 424242 cupcakes in 303030 minutes. She decorates cupcakes at a constant rate. How many cupcakes can the baker

Lelu [443]

Hey. Let me help you on this one.

In this problem, we have a constant rate of baker decorating cupcakes, and it gives us both values - cupcakes, and minutes.

In order for us to solve this question, we will need to simplify this ratio in order to make denominator, which is going to be 303030 minutes, equal to one. This can be done by property of division.

I will also be attaching an image that might help you with your studies. I recommend looking over it if you have trouble simplifying ratios.

Alright, let's set up a ratio for this problem. It should be cupcakes over minutes, since this is the rate of change and our main focus here is the time. We are also doing this because amount of minutes is less than the amount of cupcakes, meaning that simplification will be much easier and actually make more sense.

$\frac{424242}{303030}$

So, now that we have this ratio, all we have to do is simplify it. We need to have 3030303 simplified into one; however, all we do with denominator has to be done with the numerator - the number above.

In order for us to transform 303030 into one, we will need to divide it by 303030. This division will simplify the denominator, but we must not forget about numerator as well.

$424242/303030=42/30=1.4$

Awesome. Now, we have the fixed ratio of 1.4 over 1, or simply 1.4 cupcakes per minute.

Answer: Baker will decorate 1.4 cupcakes per minute if the constant rate is kept.

4 glue sticks cost $7.76<br><br> Which equation would help determine the cost of 13 glue sticks?

Elza [17]

Answer:

$y=1.94x$

13 glue sticks cost $25.22.

Step-by-step explanation:

4 blue sticks cost $7.76, this means that one glue stick costs

$7.76/4 = $1.94.

Let $y$ be the cost of the glue sticks, and $x$ be the number of glue sticks; then

$\boxed{y=1.94x}$

We can use this equation to find the cost of 13 glue sticks; we just put $x=13\$ into our equation and it gives:

$y=1.94(13)=25.22$

So 13 glue sticks cost $25.22.
