If we let x be his hourly rate, his basic pay is equal to 20x. The equation that would best described the given above is expressed as,
                                     20x + (1500 - 20x)(0.16) = 1500
The value of x from the equation is 75. Therefore, Piper's hourly rate is $75.

What is the surface area of the figure? 408ft^2 458ft^2 545ft^2 720ft^2
ser-zykov [4K]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (b)  458 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

The total area is the sum of the L-shaped front and back areas and the areas of the 6 rectangular faces.

The front L-shaped area can be considered to be a 12 ft × 12 ft square with a 5 ft × 7 ft rectangle cut from the upper left corner. Its area is then ...

  (12 ft)(12 ft) -(5 ft)(7 ft) = (144 -35) ft² = 109 ft² . . . . front area

__

The sum of the areas of the rectangular faces is the product of the width of the figure (5 ft) and the perimeter of the L-shaped face. That perimeter is the sum of the edge lengths. Starting from the lower-left corner and working clockwise, we find the perimeter to be ...

  7 ft + 7 ft + 5 ft + 5 ft + 12 ft + 12 ft = 48 ft

Then the sum of rectangular face areas is ...

  (48 ft)(5 ft) = 240 ft² . . . . rectangular face area

The total surface area is then ...

  2×front area + rectangular face area

  = 2×109 ft² +240 ft² = 458 ft² . . . . total surface area

Ou can draw a quadrilateral with two sets of parallel lines and no right angles.
Triss [41]
I believe it would be true because you can have the first set then when you have your second set it just have to be slanted for them to all be acute & obtuse angles

If cos theta = -2/5 and tan theta > 0, what is the value of sin theta?
allochka39001 [22]

Because tan theta > 0 and cos theta is negative this angle is in the third quadrant.

angle whose cos is 2/5 is 66.42 degrees

The required angle is 180 + 66.42 = 246.42 degrees answer.

Please solve these equations much appreciated
Reptile [31]

Answer:      

Part c) V=16,500\ m^3

Part d) V=93,312\pi\ mm^3  or V=292,999.68\ mm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Part c) Find the volume of the inverted rectangular pyramid

The volume of the rectangular pyramid is equal to

V=\frac{1}{3}Bh

where

B is the area of the rectangular base

h is the height of pyramid

<em>Find the area of the base B</em>

B=(60)(15)=900\ m^2

h=55\ m

substitute

V=\frac{1}{3}(900)(55)

V=16,500\ m^3

Part d) Find the maximum volume of tea in the tea cup

we know that

The volume of cylinder (tea cup) is equal to

V=\pi r^{2}h

we have

r=36\ mm\\h=72\ mm

substitute

V=\pi (36)^{2}(72)

V=93,312\pi\ mm^3 -----> exact value

<em>Find the approximate value</em>

assume

\pi =3.14

V=93,312(3.14)=292,999.68\ mm^3
