The most appropriate choice for unitary method will be given by-

Length of driveway in the drawing is 3 inch

What is unitary method?

Unitary method is the method in which value of a single unit can be calculated from the value of a multiple unit and value of a multiple unit can be calculated from the value of a single unit.

Sometimes value of single unit is less than value of multiple unit

For example - cost of food and quantity of food

Sometimes value of single unit is more than value of multiple unit

For example- Number of men and time taken by those men to do a work

Here,

Scale used by Maureen is 1 inch = 8ft

Actual length of house's driveway = 24 feet

8 ft of room is equal to 1 inch on scale

1 ft of room is equal to $\frac{1}{8}$ inch on scale

24 feet of room is equal to $\frac{1}{8} \times 24$ inch on scale

24 feet of room is equal to 3 inch on scale

Length of driveway in the drawing is 3 inch

The whole wall area including the window is 150 ft squared (15 ft x 10 ft). The window is 50 square feet (5 x 10). Take the whole area and subtract the window area and you have 100 sq ft thats paintable. One can is 50 sq ft so 100/50 is 2 cans of paint needed. Your answer is H.

A savings account earns 7.2 (APR) compounded monthly, so it earns 0.6% each month. Cooper has $1500 in the account now. if he de

iragen [17]

Answer-

Cooper will receive $12.00 at the end of the month.

Solution-

Cooper has $1500 in the account now and he deposits an additional $500 at the beginning of the month.

So the total principal becomes 1500+500 = $2000

Given here,

APR = annual percentage rate = 7.2%

But as we have to calculate the monthly interest, so monthly interest rate would be $=\dfrac{7.2}{12}=0.6\%$

Time period = 1 month

So, the interest after 1 month will be,

$\text{interest}=\dfrac{\text{Principal}\times \text{Rate of interest}\times \text{Time period}}{100}$

$=\dfrac{2000\times 0.6\times 1}{100}$

$=\$12.00$

Therefore, Cooper will receive $12.00 at the end of the month.

Anna made 20/28 free throws in basketball this season.To the nearest thousands,what is her free-throw average?

Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

0.714 free throws.

Step-by-step explanation:

Anna made 20 out of 28 free throws.

Free-throw average = $\frac{20}{28}$ = 0.7142857143 free throws.

This equals 0.714 free throws (answer rounded up to the nearest thousandths)

Check the picture below. Recall, is an open-top box, so, the top is not part of the surface area, of the 300 cm². Also, recall, the base is a square, thus, length = width = x.

$\bf \textit{volume of a rectangular prism}\\\\
V=lwh\quad 
\begin{cases}
l = length\\
w=width\\
h=height\\
-----\\
w=l=x
\end{cases}\implies V=xxh\implies \boxed{V=x^2h}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\textit{surface area}\\\\
S=4xh+x^2\implies 300=4xh+x^2\implies \cfrac{300-x^2}{4x}=h
\\\\\\
\boxed{\cfrac{75}{x}-\cfrac{x}{4}=h}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
V=x^2\left( \cfrac{75}{x}-\cfrac{x}{4} \right)\implies V(x)=75x-\cfrac{1}{4}x^3$

so.. that'd be the V(x) for such box, now, where is the maximum point at?

$\bf V(x)=75x-\cfrac{1}{4}x^3\implies \cfrac{dV}{dx}=75-\cfrac{3}{4}x^2\implies 0=75-\cfrac{3}{4}x^2
\\\\\\
\cfrac{3}{4}x^2=75\implies 3x^2=300\implies x^2=\cfrac{300}{3}\implies x^2=100
\\\\\\
x=\pm10\impliedby \textit{is a length unit, so we can dismiss -10}\qquad \boxed{x=10}$

now, let's check if it's a maximum point at 10, by doing a first-derivative test on it. Check the second picture below.

so, the volume will then be at $\bf V(10)=75(10)-\cfrac{1}{4}(10)^3\implies V(10)=500 \ cm^3$
