The base of a parallelogram is 6 ft more than the height. If the area of the parallelogram is 55 ft^2​, what are the measures of the base and the​ height?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Height = 5 ft

Base = 11 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a parallelogram is

Base × Height

From the question:

The base of a parallelogram is 6 ft more than the height.

Base = 6ft + h

If the area of the parallelogram is 55 ft^2​,

what are the measures of the base and the​ height?

This is calculated as:

55 ft² =( 6 + h ) × h

55 = 6h + h²

h² + 6h - 55 = 0

h² +5h - 11h - 55 = 0

h(h + 5) - 11(h + 5) = 0

(h + 5)(h - 11) = 0

h - 11 = 0

height = 5ft

Base = 6 + h = 6 + 5

Base = 11ft

While on a business trip to Brookfield, Haley treated her co-workers to a meal that cost $50. Haley knew that when the bill came, she would need to pay Brookfield sales tax of 14% and would want to leave an 18% tip on the original $50. Including tax and tip, how much did Haley's meal cost?

Answers

Answer:

$66

Step-by-step explanation:

The meal cost $50 without taxes.

The cost of tax:

$50*%14= $7

so she will pay a $7 tax

Also, she wants to tip %18 of the original $50 so:

$50*%18= $9

so she will tip $9

$50 + $7 + $9 = $66

A manufacturing plant is capable of producing 10 tons of product per day when it runs three shifts with no breakdowns and plenty of raw materials. Over the past week, the plant has produced an average of 7.3 tons per day because the third shift has devoted much of their time to preventive maintenance. What is the utilization of the plant?

Answers

Answer: 73%

Step-by-step explanation:

The plant is capable of producing 10 tons of product in one day.

Currently however, it is only able to produce 7.3 tons per day.

Utilization is therefore:

= Actual production/ Potential production * 100

= 7.3/10 * 100

= 73%

The aquarium where Evan works has a special tank for the baby sharks. The tank is shaped like a rectangular prism and is 18 meters long by 15 meters wide. It is 8 meters from the bottom of the tank to the top. What is the volume of the shark tank?

Answers

Answer:

The volume of the shark tank is [tex]2160 m^3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The tank is in the shape of a rectangular prism.

The length of the tank, [tex]l=18[/tex] m.

The width of the tank, [tex]w=15[/tex] m.

The height of the tank, [tex]h=8[/tex] m.

We know that, volume of a rectangular prism [tex]=l\times w \times h[/tex].

So, the volume of the tank [tex]=18\times 15\times 8=2160 m^3[/tex]

Hence, the volume of the shark tank is  [tex]2160 m^3[/tex].

Flying against the wind , an airplane travels 3660 kilometers in 6 hours. flying with the wind , the same plane travels 3800 kilometers in 4 hours. what is the rate of the plane in still air and what is the rate of the wind?​

Answers

Answer:

...

against the wind, an airplane travels 3640 km in 7 hours.

with the wind, the same plane travels 6000 km in 6hrs.

...

let speed of plane in still air be x mph

speed of wind be y mph.

..

t=d/r

..

against wind speed = x-y mph

with wond speed = x=y mph

...

3640/(x-y)=7

3640 = 7x-7y

/7

520=x-y.....................1

...

6000/x+y = 6

6000 = 6x+6y

/6

1000=x+y.....................2

...

Add (1) & (2)

2x=1520

/2

x=760 mph speed of plane in still air

...

plug value of x in 2

1000=760+y

100-760=y

240 = y

240 mph speed of wind
