Answer:

$21.25

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of the 2 adult tickets before the discount is $8 * 2 = $16

The cost of the 2 child tickets before the discount is $5 * 2 = $10

The total cost before the discount is $16 + $10 = $26

The total cost after the discount is

$26 * (1 - 0.15) =

$26 * 0.85 =

$21.25

calculate the height at 3 seconds given that the rocket travels 85 feet per second and starts on a launch pad 15 feet of the gro

Airida [17]

Answer:

The height of the rocket at 3 seconds is 270 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the height of the rocket at 3 seconds,

First, we will determine the height the rocket has traveled in 3 seconds

The height traveled by the rocket is given by

Height (h) = Velocity (v) × Time (t)

From the question,

The rocket travels 85 feet per second, that is the velocity of the rocket is 85 feet per second,

Now,

v = 85 feet / second

t = 3 seconds

Hence,

Height (h) = 85 feet /second × 3 seconds

Height = 255 feet

∴ the rocket would have traveled 255 feet in 3 seconds,

But, the rocket starts on a launch pad 15 feet of the ground,

Then, the height of the rocket at 3 seconds is

255 feet + 15 feet = 270 feet.

Hence, the height of the rocket at 3 seconds is 270 feet

A glass paperweight has a composite shape: a square pyramid fitting exacty on top of an 8 centimeter cube. The pyramid has a hei

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

Part 1) The volume of the paperweight is $576\ cm^{3}$

Part 2) The total surface area of the paperweight is $400\ cm^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) what is the volume of the paperweight?

we know that

The volume of the paperweight is equal to the volume of the square pyramid plus the volume of the cube

step 1

Find the volume of the pyramid

The volume of the pyramid is equal to

$V=\frac{1}{3}BH$

where

B is the area of the square base

H is the height of the pyramid

$B=8^{2}=64\ cm^{2}$

$H=3\ cm$

substitute

$V=\frac{1}{3}(64)(3)=64\ cm^{3}$

step 2

Find the volume of the cube

The volume of the cube is equal to

$V=b^{3}$

$V=8^{3}=512\ cm^{3}$

step 3

Find the volume of the paperweight

$64\ cm^{3}+512\ cm^{3}=576\ cm^{3}$

Part 2) what is the total surface area of the paperweight?

we know that

The total surface area of the paperweight is equal to the surface area of 5 faces of the cube plus the lateral area of the pyramid

step 1

Find the surface area of 5 faces of the cube

$SA=5b^{2}$

$SA=5(8^{2})=320\ cm^{2}$

step 2

Find the lateral area of the pyramid

$LA=4[\frac{1}{2}bh]$

$LA=4[\frac{1}{2}(8)(5)]=80\ cm^{2}$

step 3

Find the total surface area of the paperweight

$320\ cm^{2}+80\ cm^{2}=400\ cm^{2}$

What is the value of a?

bearhunter [10]

Answer:

the second option : 5 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

the height (h) in such a right-angled triangle is based on the 2 segments of the baseline : 3 and a

h = 4

the formula is h = sqrt(a×b)

with a and b being the baseline segments.

so,

4 = sqrt(3×a)

16 = 3×a

a = 16/3 = 5 1/3
