Answer:

The manufacturing cost is $14.50

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the cost for manufacturing a standard cereal box, we must take in account its surface area. The volume will be used to estimate the amount of cereal, the box can contain. The box is a cuboid as standard cereal boxes are cuboid.

So, we will consider the surface area. Given are:

Length- 8 inches

Width- 3 inches

Height- 11 inches

We will find the surface area as : $2lw+2wh+2lh$

= $(2*8*3)+(2*3*11)+(2*8*11)$

= $48+66+176=290$ square inches

Given is - the cost of manufacturing the box is $0.05 per square inch.

So, cost of manufacturing the box with 290 square inches area =

$0.05\times290=14.50$ dollars.

The answer is $14.50

An isosceles triangle has an angle that measures 38degrees. What measures are possible for the other two angles? Choose all that

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

71° and 71°.

⠀

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle having two sides equal along with one different side is called an isosceles triangle.

⠀

So, Let us assume the other sides (two equal sides) of the isosceles triangle as x. As the different side is already given in the question.

⠀

We know that,

The sum of all angles of a triangle is 180°

⠀

So, According to the question :

⠀

${\longrightarrow \it\qquad { \ { { 38 \: }^{ \circ} + x + x = 180{}^{ \circ} }}}$

⠀

${\longrightarrow \it\qquad { \ { { 38 \: }^{ \circ} + 2x = 180{}^{ \circ} }}}$

⠀

${\longrightarrow \it\qquad { \ { 2x = 180{}^{ \circ} - { 38 \: }^{ \circ}}}}$

⠀

${\longrightarrow \it\qquad { \ { 2x = 142{}^{ \circ} }}}$

⠀

${\longrightarrow \it\qquad { \ { x = \dfrac{142{}^{ \circ}}{2} }}}$

⠀

${\longrightarrow \it\qquad { \pmb { x = 71^{ \circ} }}}$

⠀

Therefore,

The measure of the two other angles of the isosceles triangle are 71° and 71°.

Suppose you and a friend form a band. You want to record a demo. Sony Studios rents for $150 plus $20 an hour. Capitol Studios r

IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

200 < 225 + 80x < 550

The 200 is the amount the Jenna currently have.

225 + 80x is the amount that Jenna has to pay given x number of hours.

550 is the sum of Jenna's 200 and additional 350 she can get by selling pre-ordered Cds. This is the maximum amount she can pay for the studio rental and sound technicians.

Step-by-step explanation:

225 + 80x < 550

80x < 550 -225

80x < 325

80x / 80 < 325/80

x < 4.06 or 4 hours

225 + 80x → 225 + 80(4) = 225 + 320 = 545

The number of hours for the sound technician will range from 1 hour to 4 hours.

Assuming they will use 6 hours.

225 + 80(6) = 225 + 480 = 705

705 - 550 = 155

Jenna has to raise an additional $155 to pay off the studio rent and 6 hours of sound technicians.

this might be wrong but, i hope it helps
