2.5 pounds of grain cost ======= $1.75
∴ 5.3 pounds of grain will cost ===== (5.3×1.75)/2.5 = $3.71
Check the picture below.
let's recall that a kite is a quadrilateral, and thus is a polygon with 4 sides
sum of all interior angles in a polygon
180(n - 2) n = number of sides
so for a quadrilateral that'd be 180( 4 - 2 ) = 360, thus

Answer:
A possible solution is that radius of cone B is 2 units and height is 36 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of a cone is given by
where
r is the radius
h is the height
Here we are told that both cones A and B have the same volume, which is:
And
(2)
We also know that cone A has radius 6 units:
and height 4 units:
For cone B, from eq.(2), we get
One possible solution for this equation is
In fact in this case, we get:
Therefore a possible solution is that radius of cone B is 2 units and height is 36 units, and we know that in this case Cone B has the same volume as cone A because it is told by the problem.
To answer the given above, multiply the whole equation with least common multiple of the denominators which is 5n. Shown below,
(4/5n - 1/5 = 2/5n) x 5n
4 - 1(n) = 2
-n = -2, n = 2
The answer is not among the choices, it could have been letter A except that the constant in A is negative.
