Dr. Ellison says that the equation y = 17x + 1 has a solution of (1,18). Is Dr. Ellison right or wrong?

A. Dr. Ellison is right
B. Dr. Ellison is wrong
C. You need more information

we have three similar triangles, because each has a right angle and shares an angle.   let's write the angles in order: opposite to short leg, long leg, hypotenuse.

cab similar to bad similar to cbd

or as ratios,

ca: ab: cb = ba: ad: bd = cb: bd: cd

we also know

ac = ad + cd

(ad+cd): ab: cb = ba: ad: bd = cb: bd: cd

(ad+cd)/cb=cb/cd

we have cb=6, ad=5 and seek x=cd.

we reject the negative root and conclude x=4

answer: 4

no because mercury has a density of 13.6 grams per centimeter squared while gold has 19.32 grams centimeter squared

step-by-step explanation:

the answer is:

the correct option is the option b.

to calculate the surface area of the right cylinder, we need to use the following formula:

from the picture we know that:

so, substituting and calculting we have:

hence, we have that the correct option is the option b.

have a nice day!
