Answer:

the combination of numbers must then be:

9.7 + 8.6 which results to 18.3

9.6 + 8.7 yields 18.3 as well.

If the shaded cross sections of the solids have the same area, which of the following corresponds to the value of a: the side le

Nikolay [14]

Answer:

$4\sqrt{\pi}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The cross section of a sphere is a circle with area $\pi r^2$ , where radius is given as 4
The cross section of the cube is a square with area $a^2$ , where a is side length of square

The circle area = the square area. Thus we have:

$\pi r^2 = a^2 \\\pi(4)^2=a^2\\16\pi=a^2\\\sqrt{16\pi}=a\\ a=\sqrt{16} \sqrt{\pi} \\a=4\sqrt{\pi}$

If 0.25cm = 15 km the answer would divide 0.75 by0.25=3
next multiply 3 by 15km to get 45km

A yard is equal in length to three feet. The function f(x) takes a measurement in yards (as input) and returns a measurement in

Grace [21]

If it takes yards and turns it into feet then it just multiplies it by 3

so if the input is 10.5 then you just multiply it by three

Is it possible to form a triangle with side lengths 3.5 3.5, and 9? If so, will it be scalene, isosceles, or equilateral? Or non

Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

It is not possible to draw a triangle with given measurements of 3.5, 3.5, and 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

<em><u>Scalene Triangle</u></em> - All 3 sides have different lengths.

<em><u>I</u></em><em><u>s</u></em><em><u>osceles</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>Triangle</u></em> - 2 sides have equal lengths.

<em><u>Equilateral</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>Triangle</u></em> - All 3 sides have equal lengths.

You must be thinking that it would be Isosceles triangle, but it is not. The measurements you gave is 3.5, 3.5, and 9. Grab a piece of paper, ruler, and a pencil. First draw the length of 9 cm with your pencil and ruler (let us pretend that the measurements are in cm). Then draw 3.5 cm by placing your ruler on the end/start of your 9cm line that you drew before. Then, once again draw a 3.5 cm on the other end of the 9cm line. You will see something like the picture above. You can see that the two sides of the triangle are not intersecting on the top. This means that the triangle formation cannot be made by the given measurements of 3.5, 3.5, and 9.

I hope you understand my answer and this is an easy way to find if, from the given measurements, a triangle is able to be drawn. Thank you !!
