A cylinder has radius 2cm and height 9cm. A cone has radius r cm and height h cm. The ratio r : h is 1 : 4. The volume of the cone is equal to the volume of the cylinder. Work out the value of r.

Firstly, we will find the volume of the cylinder using the formula V_cylinder =π r2h . Inputting the numbers given in the question gives V_cylinder = 36π.Given that V_cylinder = V_cone, and usi...

Solve for x in the following equation: e^x + 10e^(-x) = 7

First of all, we bring the 7 to the left side of the equation to get: ex-7+10e-x=0. Then, by multiplying both sides of the equation by ex, we can get an equation in the fo...

The line l1 has equation 4y - 3x = 10. Line l2 passes through points (5, -1) and (-1, 8). Determine whether the lines l1 and l2 are parallel, perpendicular or neither.

To determine the answer the gradient of both lines must be found. To find the gradient of line l1 the equation can be rewritten in the form y = mx + c. 4y - 3x = 10 so y = 3/4 x + 5/2. From this equation ...
