uestion, you will calculate the cost of water for laundry and bathing. You will use the City of New York 2011 rate of $7.64/100 cubic feet of water. Calculate the cost of each of the following based on this rate. Use the conversion factor of 7.48 gallons per cubic foot. a. A standard washing machine uses approximately 50 gallons of water per load4 . A household washes one load of laundry per week for 52 weeks. Find the total cost per year. 2655. # b. According to one study, the average American shower lasts for 8.2 minutes and uses 17.2 gallons. A person showers once a day for a year (365 days). Find the total cost per year. $ 6412.9 * /yr

Answer: a) $26.55/year

b) $64.13/year

Step-by-step explanation:

a) <u>$7.64</u>   .   <u>1 ft³</u>     .     <u>50 gal</u> .   <u>1 load </u>   .  <u>52 week</u>   = $<u>26.55</u>

    100 ft³   7.48 gal      1 load      1 week       1 year           year

The total cost per year is $26.55

b)<u>$7.64</u>   .   <u>1 ft³</u>     .     <u>17.2 gal</u>      .   <u>1 shower </u>   .  <u>365 days</u>   = <u>$64.13</u>

    100 ft³   7.48 gal      1 shower         1 day            1 year            year

The total cost per year is $64.13

In parallelogram QRST QS RT Is QRST a rectangle ?
fomenos

Answer:

The correct option is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the QRST is a parallelogram and the diagonals QS and RT are congruent.

According to the property of parallelogram if the length of diagonals are same, then the parallelogram is rectangle. We can also prove it.

Let QRST be an parallelogram and QS=RT.

In triangles QRT and RQS.

RT=QS         (Diagonals)

QR=QR         (Common side)

QT=RS         (Opposite sides of the parallelogram are same)

So by SSS rule of congruence, triangle QRT and triangle RQS are congruent.

By CPCT,

\angle R=\angle Q

Since the sum of two consecutive angles of a parallelogram is 180 degree.

\angle R+\angle Q=180

2\angle R=180

\angle R=90

Therefore the measure of angle R and angle Q are 90 degree.

Similarly in triangle QST and RTS,

RT=QS         (Diagonals)

ST=ST         (Common side)

QT=RS         (Opposite sides of the parallelogram are same)

So by SSS rule of congruence, triangle QST and RTS are congruent.

By CPCT,

\angle S=\angle T

Since the sum of two consecutive angles of a parallelogram is 180 degree.

Therefore the measure of angle S and angle T are 90 degree.

Since the measure of all interior angles of QRST are 90 degree, therefore the parallelogram QRST  is a rectangle.
