The rectangular garden shown has a width of 50 feet and a length of 45 feet and is surrounded by a paved path with a uniform width of \(x\) feet. If the combined area of the garden and the paved path is 2646 square feet, what is the value of \(x\) ?
A) 1
B) 2
C) 3
D) 4
▶️ Answer/Explanation
Answer: 2
Total Area of rectangle will be length \(\times\) breadth \(= 546\)
As \(\mathrm{x}\) denotes distance which cant be negative.
The figure shown is a right circular cylinder with a radius of \( r \) and height of \( h \). A second right circular cylinder (not shown) has a volume that is 392 times as large as the volume of the cylinder shown. Which of the following could represent the radius \( R \), in terms of \( r \), and the height \( H \), in terms of \( h \), of the second cylinder?
A) \( R = 8r \) and \( H = 7h \)
B) \( R = 8r \) and \( H = 49h \)
C) \( R = 7r \) and \( H = 8h \)
D) \( R = 49r \) and \( H = 8h \)
▶️ Answer/Explanation
Ans: C
Volume of first cylinder = \( \pi r^2 h \). Second cylinder volume = \( \pi R^2 H = 392 \pi r^2 h \).
So, \( R^2 H = 392 r^2 h \). Check options:
A) \( (8r)^2 (7h) = 64r^2 \cdot 7h = 448r^2 h \) (incorrect).
B) \( (8r)^2 (49h) = 64r^2 \cdot 49h = 3136r^2 h \) (incorrect).
C) \( (7r)^2 (8h) = 49r^2 \cdot 8h = 392r^2 h \) (correct).
D) \( (49r)^2 (8h) = 2401r^2 \cdot 8h = 19208r^2 h \) (incorrect).
