Set this up as a fraction, then cross multiply and solve. In our case, cross multiplying will get us 16x=36, which gets us x=9/4.

Quadrilateral ABDE is a rectangle. DE = 4 in. and BD = 6 in. If the rectangle is rotated about a line through CF, cylinder Y is
postnew [5]

Answer:

1 in. is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution: A Rectangle ABDE in which DE=4 inches and BD= 6 inches

 There are two kinds of rotations

1. one along the Breadth, side having length 6 inches,i.e rotated along line GH,  Cylinder Z is created.

Radius of cylinder Z=6/2= 3 inches

2. Second along the Length, Side having length 4 inches,i.e rotated about a line CF, cylinder Y is created.

Radius of cylinder Y= 4/2= 2 inches

Difference in Radii= Radius of cylinder Z  -  Radius of cylinder Y

                              =  3 - 2= 1 inches

Diagram shown below of both the cases:

Kate is a wage earner. One year she earned $72 000. She works 36 hours/week.
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

Kate's possible hourly rate of pay:  $34.75

Hours of overtime: 100

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find Kate's hourly wage, we can set up an equation based on the number of hours she works per week and the estimated number of overtime hours to equal her total pay for the year.  If Kate works 36 hours/week and there are 52 weeks in a year, her total hours for one year are:  36 x 52 = 1872.  Setting up an equation based on her total earnings of $72,000:

1872x + 100(2x) = 72000, where 'x' is the hourly rate and '2x' is her overtime rate which is double time.

Combine like terms:  1872x + 200x = 72000 or 2072x = 72000

Divide both sides by 2072:  2072x/2072 = 72000/2072

Solve for x:  x = $34.75

Kate's hourly rate is estimated at $34.75.  We can check to see if this is correct by putting this value back into our original equation:

1872(34.75) + 100(2)(34.75) = 65052 + 6950 = 72002

The answer of $72,002 is very close to $72,000 and the best estimate of Kate's hourly wage and overtime hours.
