So earned 56,700 in a year and had 8,788.5 held back
convert to percent

so find what percent was withhelald which is (amount held back)/(total taken from)
so it would be 8,788.5/56,700=0.155/1
percent means parts out of 100 or x/100=x% so convert the bottom number ot 100 by mulitplyint the whole fraction by 1 or 100/100 so
0.155/1 times 100/100=15.5/100=15.5%
the answer is 15.5%

A square pyramid has a base length of 6 inches. The height of each triangular face is 11 inches. Which expressions correctly cal
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

168 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

The square would be 36 in²

Area of a triangle is A= 1/2 bh

A = 1/2 (11 x 6), A= 1/2 (66)

1/2 (66) = 33 in², which is the area of a triangle.

Then you multiply 33 x 4 to get the area of all the triangles, which is 132 in²

You add the area of the square to the area of the triangles, which is 168 in².

Answer:

<h2>36</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The median is the value that separates the higher half from the bottom half of the data sample (middle value).

We have

34, 36, 30, 37, 40, 30, 42

Write from the smallest to the largest number

30, 30, 34, 36, 37, 40, 42

(c) The total number of one centimeter lines in the first n diagrams is given by the expression
trapecia [35]

Answer:

I) f + g = 10/3

II) 4f + 2g = 20/3

III) f = 2 and g = 4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

From the chart,

P = 25

q = 40

The total number of one centimeter lines in the first n diagrams is given by the expression 

2/3n^3 + fn^2 + gn. 

When n = 1, the total number of line = 4. So,

2/3(1)^3 + f(1)^2 + g(1) = 4

2/3 + f + g = 4

Make f+g the subject of formula

f + g = 4 - 2/3

f + g = (12 - 2)/3

f + g = 10/3 ......(1)

When n = 2

Total number of line = 12

2/3(2)^3 + f(2)^2 + g(2) = 12

2/3×8 + 4f + 2g = 12

16/3 + 4f + 2g = 12

4f + 2g = 12 - 16/3

4f + 2g = (36 - 16)/3

4f + 2g = 20/3 ......(2)

(iii) To find the values of f and g, solve equation 1 and 2 simultaneously

f + g = 10/3 × 2

4f + 2g = 32/3

2f + 2g = 20/3

4f + 2g = 32/3

- 2f = - 12/3

f = 12/6

f = 2

Substitutes f in equation 1

f + g = 10/3

2 + g = 10/3

g = 10/3 - 2

g = (10 - 6)/3

g = 4/3
