A cone has a diameter of 3 inches. The cone holds 12 cubic inches of water, to the nearest inch what is the height of the cone?

Volume of a cone: V = pi(r^2)h/3 to solve for height (h), divide pi and r^2 from both sides canceling it out in the right making v/pi(r^)=h/3 then multiply 3 by both sides to cancel the 3 on the right leaving

h= (3) V/pi(r^2)

since it is known the diameter is 3 inches, the radius is 1.5 because the radius is half the diameter

the volume is also known to be 12 cubic inches so plug in what you know

H= (3) 12/pi(1.5^2)

to get the height to be approximately 5.093in

The table shows the gallons of water in a pool over time.
Luda [366]

Answer:

- 6 gallons per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the function that models the quantities of water, Q (in gallons) in a pool over time, t (in minutes), is  

Q = a + bt ........... (1)

Now, Q(t = 0) is given to be 50 gallons.

So, a = 50 and b denotes the rate at which the quantity of water in the pool is decreasing and it is given by the slope of equation (1).

Now, two points on the graph are (0,50) and (1,44).

So, the slope = b = \frac{50 - 44}{0 - 1} = - 6 gallons per minute.

Therefore, the equation of this situation is given by Q = 50 - 6t, where the slope is equal to - 6 gallons per minute. (Answer)

What set of reflections would carry triangle ABC onto itself?
aivan3 [116]
<span><u><em>The correct answer is:</em></u>
4) y-axis, x-axis, y-axis, x-axis.

<u><em>Explanation</em></u><span><u><em>: </em></u>
Reflecting a point (x,y) across the <u>x-axis</u> will map it to (x,-y).
Reflecting a point (x,y) across the <u>y-axis</u> will map it to (-x,y).
Reflecting a point (x,y) across the line <u>y=x</u> will map it to (y, x).

We want a series of transformations that will map every point (x,y) back to (x,y). This means that everything that gets done in one transformation must be undone in another. The only one where this happens is #4.

Reflecting across the y-axis first negates the x-coordinate; (x,y) goes to (-x,y).
Reflecting this across the x-axis negates the y-coordinate; (-x,y) goes to (-x,-y).
Reflecting this point back across the y-axis negates the x-coordinate again, returning it to the original: (-x,-y) goes to (x,-y).
Reflecting this point back across the x-axis negates the y-coordinate again, returning it to the original: (x,-y) goes to (x,y).
We are back to our original point.</span></span>

A water trough has two congruent isosceles trapezoids as ends and two congruent rectangles as sides.
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

Part a) The exterior surface area is equal to 160\ ft^{2}

Part b) The volume is equal to 240\ ft^{3}

Part c) The volume water left in the trough will be 84\ ft^{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a) we know that

The exterior surface area is equal to the area of both trapezoids plus the area of both rectangles

so

<em>Find the area of two rectangles</em>

A=2[12*5]=120\ ft^{2}

<em>Find the area of two trapezoids</em>

A=2[\frac{1}{2}(8+2)h]

Applying Pythagoras theorem calculate the height h

h^{2}=5^{2}-3^{2}

h^{2}=16

h=4\ ft

substitute the value of h to find the area

A=2[\frac{1}{2}(8+2)(4)]=40\ ft^{2}

The exterior surface area is equal to

120\ ft^{2}+40\ ft^{2}=160\ ft^{2}

Part b) Find the volume

We know that

The volume is equal to

V=BL

where

B is the area of the trapezoidal face

L is the length of the trough

we have

B=20\ ft^{2}

L=12\ ft

substitute

V=20(12)=240\ ft^{3}

Part c)

<em>step 1</em>

Calculate the area of the trapezoid for h=2 ft (the half)

the length of the midsegment of the trapezoid is (8+2)/2=5 ft

A=\frac{1}{2}(5+2)(2)=7\ ft^{2}

<em>step 2</em>

Find the volume

The volume is equal to

V=BL

where

B is the area of the trapezoidal face

L is the length of the trough

we have

B=7\ ft^{2}

L=12\ ft

substitute

V=7(12)=84\ ft^{3}
