Contact [7]

Answer

Find the volume of the coin is cubic millimeters.

To prove

Formula

$Volume\ of\ cylinder\ = \pi r^{2} h$

Where r is the radius and h is the height .

As given

The $1 coin depicts Sacagawea and her infant son.

The diameter of the coin is 26.5 mm, and the thickness is 2.00 mm.

$Radius = \frac{Diameter}{2}$

$Radius = \frac{26.5}{2}$

Radius = 13.25 mm

$\pi = 3.14$

Put in the formula

Volume of coin = 3.14 × 13.25 × 13.25 × 2.00

= 1102.53 mm³ (approx)

Therefore the volume of the coin is 1102.53 mm³ .

Sofia is working two summer jobs, making $12 per hour babysitting and making $8 per hour clearing tables. In a given week, she c

Mamont248 [21]

The possible values for the number of whole hours clearing tables that she must work to meet her requirements is 2, 3 hours

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Amount earned in babysitting = $ 12 per hour

Amount earned in clearing tables = $ 8 per hour

In a given week, she can work a maximum of 17 total hours and must earn a minimum of $180

Sofia worked 14 hours babysitting

Therefore,

Amount earned at babysitting = 14 x 12 = 168

Thus, Sofia earned $ 168 at babysitting

Sofia must earn a minimum of $ 180

Remaining amount to be earned = 180 - 168 = 12

Thus, Sofia must earn $ 12 from clearing tables

Amount earned in clearing tables = $ 8 per hour

So, she must work for atleast 1.5 hours to get $ 12 from clearing tables

She can work a maximum of 17 total hours and Sofia worked 14 hours babysitting

Remaining is 17 - 14 = 3 hours

Thus possible values for the number of whole hours clearing tables that she must work to meet her requirements is 2 hours or 3 hours

An abstract sculpture in the form of a triangle has a base 21 meters and a height of 12 meters. Find the are of the triangle.

charle [14.2K]

The area of a triangle could be determined using the following formula
$\boxed{a= \frac{1}{2} \times b \times h}$

plug in the numbers
$a = \frac{1}{2} \times 21 \times 12$
$a = \frac{1}{2} \times 252$
$a= \frac{252}{2}$
a = 126

The area of the triangle is 126 square meters

By replacing you get:

5*7-2*11+3*(-1) = 35-22-3= 10

so the answer is 10.

The URS construction company has submitted two bids, one to build a large hotel in London and the other to build a commercial o

topjm [15]

Answer: Our required probability is 0.55.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Probability that chance of winning the hotel bid = 40%

Probability that no chance of winning the hotel bid = 100-40=60%

Probability that chance of winning the office building bid = 25%

Probability that no chance of winning the office building bid = 100-25 = 75%

So, Probability that the company will win at least one contract is given by

$0.4\times 0.75+0.6\times 0.25+0.4\times 0.25\\\\=0.55$

Hence, our required probability is 0.55.
