The perimeter of a rectangle is 40 cm. The length is 14 cm. Let x = width of the rectangle. Ravi says he can find the width using the equation 2(x + 14) = 40. Fran says she can find the width using the equation 2x + 28 = 40. Answer the questions to solve the equations and to compare the steps and solutions. 1. Which of these is the most helpful first step for solving Ravi's equation, 2(x + 14) = 40? Circle the best answer. Add 14 to both sides Subtract 14 from both sides Divide both sides by 2 Multiply both sides by 2

For every corresponding pair of cross sections, the area of the cross section of a sphere with radius r is equal to the area of the cross section of a cylinder with radius and height 2r minus the volume of two cones, each with a radius and height of r. a cross section of the sphere is and a cross section of the cylinder minus the cones, taken parallel to the base of cylinder, is the volume of the cylinder with radius r and height 2r is and the volume of each cone with radius r and height r is 1/3 pie r^3. so the volume of the cylinder minus the two cones is therefore, the volume of the cylinder is 4/3pie r^3 by cavalieri's principle. (fill in options are: r/2- r- 2r- an annulus- a circle -1/3pier^3- 2/3pier^3- 4/3pier^3- 5/3pier^3- 2pier^3- 4pier^3)
