You are filling a bookcase with books. The bookcase is 3 feet wide. Your hardcover books are 1 1/2 inches wide and your paperback books are 3⁄4 inches wide. If you have already placed 8 hardcover books on the shelf, what is the maximum number of paperback books you can also fit on the shelf?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

32 paperback books

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Width of hardcover books = 1 1/2 inches

Width of paperback books = 3/4 inches

Number of hardcover books already on shelf = 8

Total width of shelf = 3 feets

1 foot = 12 inches

Hence, total shelf width in inches = (12 * 3) = 36 inches

Total width of hardcover books = (8 * 1 1/2) = 12 inches

Total shelf width left = (36 - 12) inches = 24 inches

Maximum number of paperback books :

Total shelf width left / paperback width

24 inches / (3/4)inches = 32 paperback books

Answers

Answer:

h=17.3 A=173

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculator

Answer:

height = 17.3 mm

area = 173 mm²

Step-by-step explanation:

all three sides are of the same length (20 mm).

so, the height actually splits the baseline in half

(2 × 10 mm) while hitting it at a 90 degree angle.

so, we use Pythagoras, where the full side opposite of this 90 degree angle is c (Hypotenuse), the height of the main triangle is one side, and half of the baseline is the other side.

c² = a² + b²

20² = 10² + height²

400 = 100 + height²

300 = height²

height = 17.3 mm

the area of the main triangle is baseline (20) times height divided by 2.

so,

At = 20×17.3/2 = 10×17.3 = 173 mm²

martin is filling his bathtub, but he left the drain partially open. martin knows that it takes 8 minutes to fill his 40 gallon tub. the equation v = 2.5t represents the volume, v , of water that drains out of the tub in t minutes. if martin leaves the water on, will the tub ever overflow ?

please someone help ​​

Answers

Answer:

Yes, it will overflow after 16 minutes..

Step-by-step explanation:

The tub fills at a rate of 5 gallons every minute, but it drains at a rate of 2.5 gallons every minute. This means that it fills twice as fast as it drains, so it would take 16 minutes for the tub to overflow. If you subtract the rate of draining from the rate of filling then the net rate of water going up is 2.5 gallons a minute.

❏ Hello there! ❏

This number is composite.

Prime numbers have only two factors.

An example of a prime number is 5 (it's divisible by itself and 1)

Every prime number is divisible by itself and 1 (only these two numbers)

Composite numbers, however, have 3 or more factors.

18 has more than 3 factors, therefore, it's composite.

Product of prime factors:

2*3*3

2 is prime, because it's divisible by itself and 1

3 is prime as well

If i work in a week 2 days cleaning and i will work 4 hours in a day and in 1 hour is 8$ how much will it be in a year

Answers

Answer:

$3072

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that :

I work for 4 hours everyday, working 2 days a week.

And in 1 hour , I get $8.

Therefore,

1 hour = $8

4 hours = 4 x  8

             = $32

So, in 1 day working for 4 hours, I get $32.

∴ Working 2 days = 32 x 2

                              = $64

In 1 month, there are 4 weeks

So, in 4 weeks (or 1 month), I work for = 4 x 2

                                                               =  8 days

Therefore, in 8 days, I get = 8 x 32

                                            = $256

Now there are 12 months in a year.

So, in 12 months , I will get = 12 x 256

                                            = $3072

Therefore, in 1 year , I will get $3072.

Selling frozen yogurt at a fair, you make $565 and use 250 cones. A single-scoop cone cost $2 and a double-scoop cone cost $2.50. How many of each type of cone did you sell?

Answers

The seller sold 120 single-scoop cones and 130 double-scoop cones to make $565.

250 cones were used while selling yogurt and made $565.

There are two types of cones:

Single-scoop cone that cost $2.

Double-scoop cone that cost $2.50.

We need to know how many cones of each type were used while selling yogurt that made $565.

This is a system of linear equations problem.

We will have to make two linear equations using the given statements and apply the substitution method to get our answer.

Consider,

x = single-scoop cone.

y = double-scoop cone.

Now, we can make two linear equations:

x + y = 250............(A)

2x + 2.50y = 565...............(B)

Apply substitution method.

From (A) we get,

x = 250 - y...............(C)

And putting x = 250 - y in (B) we get,

2 ( 250 - y ) + 2.50y = 565

500 - 2y + 2.50y = 565

0.50y = 565 - 500

0.50y = 65

y = 65 / 0.50
y = 6500 / 50

y = 130

Putting y = 50 in (C) we get,

x = 250 - 130

x = 120

We have,

x = 120 and y = 130

We see that we need 120 single-scoop cones and 130 double-scoop cones to make $565.

Step-by-step explanation:

the external angle is between the outside of one of the sides of the angle and the continued line of the second side of the angle.

exterior angle = 180 - interval angle = 180-105 = 75

Step-by-step explanation:

18/2=9 9-3=6 6*3=18

The equation be (x/2) - 3 = x/3 then, the number of x = 18.

How to estimate the value of x?

To estimate the value of x, bring the variable to the left side and bring all the remaining values to the right side. Simplify the values to estimate the result.

Let x be the number

From the given information, we get

(x/2) - 3 = x/3

The set all the fractions on one side and constants on another side

(x/2) - (x/3) = 3

Multiply by LCM

3x - 18 = 2x

Add 18 to both sides

3x - 18 + 18 = 2x + 18

simplify

3x = 2x + 18

Subtract 2x from both sides

3x - 2x = 2x + 18 - 2x

x =18.

Therefore, the number is x = 18.

If the angle is in standard position and P(x, y) is a point on the terminal side of , and r is the distance from the origin to P, then sin() = Incorrect: Your answer is incorrect. cos() = tan() = .

Answers

cos(a) = x/r

sin(a) = y/r

tan(a) =  y/x

In the image at the end, you can see a sketch of the situation, we can model this with a triangle rectangle:

The hypotenuse length is equal to r, the adjacent cathetus to the angle is the x-value, and the opposite cathetus to the angle is the y-value.

Now we can remember the trigonometric relations:

cos(a) = (adjacent cathetus)/(hypotenuse)

sin(a) = (opposite cathetus)/(hypotenuse)

tan(a) = (opposite cathetus)/(adjacent cathetus)

Using what we wrote above, we can rewrite these as:

cos(a) = (adjacent cathetus)/(hypotenuse) = x/r

sin(a) = (opposite cathetus)/(hypotenuse) = y/r

tan(a) = (opposite cathetus)/(adjacent cathetus) = y/x

Answer:

y - 3 = 2(x - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1. Solve for slope

m = slope

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

Points: (-2, 3) & (1, 9)

m = (9 - 3)/(1 - - 2)

m = 6/3

m = 2

Step 2. Use the two points and the slope to write the line in point-slope form.

Point-Slope Form: y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Slope-Intercept Form: y = 2x + 7

With the points: (-2, 3) & (1, 9)

Where x1 = -2 y1 = 3, x2 = 1 y2 = 9

Point-Slope Form = y - 3 = 2(x - 2)
