Answer:

Apprentice = $800

Journeyman = $1600

carpenter = $4000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the apprentice earns X dollars.

Then ,

Journeyman will make 200% of apprentice's earning which is 2X.

Also,

Carpenter makes 250% of the earning that journeyman makes.

Which is 2.5(2X) = 5X

Their total earning should come to $6400.

Thus,

X + 2X + 5X = 6400

8X = 6400.

X = $800

So,

Earning of apprentice = X = $800

Earning of Journeyman = 2X = $1600

Earning of carpenter = 5X = $4000

Answer:

<em>The uniform rate of depreciation is $56,333 per year, or 11% per year.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Rate of Depreciation</u>

If some object has a certain value P and after some time t its value decreases to Q, the rate of depreciation is a measure of how much its value changed per unit time.

It can be calculated as:

\displaystyle R=\frac{P-Q}{t}

It can also be expressed as a percentage, dividing the previous value by P.

The school bus reduces its value from $512,000 to $343,000 in 3 years, thus:

\displaystyle R=\frac{512,000-343,000}{3}

\displaystyle R=\frac{169,000}{3}

R = 56,333 $/year

Expressed as a percentage:

R = 56,333 / 512,000 = 0.11

R = 11%/year

The uniform rate of depreciation is $56,333 per year, or 11% per year.

The volume of the triangular prism is 12.5 m³. The length is 2.5 m and the base is 2 m. What is the width?
Fantom [35]

Answer:

  (4)  5 m

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the length of side x of a right triangular prism with base edge lengths of 2.5 m and 2 m, and a volume of 12.5 m³.

<h3>Volume</h3>

The volume of the prism is given by the formula ...

  V = Bh

where B is the area of the base:

  B = 1/2bh . . . . where b and h are the leg dimensions of the right triangle

Using these formulas together, we have ...

  V = 1/2(2.5 m)(2 m)x

  12.5 m³ = 2.5x m²

Dividing by 2.5 m², we find x to be ...

  (12.5 m³)/(2.5 m²) = x = 5 m

The dimension labeled x has length 5 meters.
