Question 416178: v=1/3 * π*r^(2)*h making h the subject
We have this to solve making h the subject:
V%2F1=1%2F3%2Api%2Ar%5E2%2Ah
cross multiply
1%2Api%2Ar%5E2%2Ah=3%2AV
So we obtain
pi%2Ar%5E2%2Ah=3V
(we divide by pi%2Ar%5E2)
h=3V%2F%28pi%2Ar%5E2%29

Question 430834: I'm trying to help my niece with an algebra problem that has both of us stumped...
(s+t)(s-t)(s+t)(s-t)
The answer provided in her book is:
s^4-2t^2s^2t^2
I can't even get close to this answer. I got the s^4 and think I got the s^2 and t^2, but I can't figure out the -2t^2.
If you can tell me what I'm doing wrong, I'd appreciate it.
I came up with:
(s)(s)(s)(s) = s^4
(t)(-t)(t)(-t) = t^2
I am so confused right now, I don't know what to do. It's been years since I had Algebra.
