11 weeks are required for Riley to work to save enough money to buy the new television

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that Riley needs a total of $1,049.77

Riley has saved $200.79 already and earns $77.18 per week at her job

To find: Number of weeks Riley need to work to save enough money to buy the new television

Remaining amount needed = $1,049.77 -  $200.79

Remaining amount needed = $ 848.98

Let "n" be the number of weeks Riley need to work to save enough money to buy the new television

Also she earns $77.18 per week at her job

1 week ⇒ $ 77.18

"n" weeks ⇒ $ 848.98

Therefore, by cross multiplication,

n \times 77.18 = 1 \times 848.98\\\\n = \frac{848.98}{77.18}\\\\n = 11

Therefore 11 weeks are required for her to work to save enough money to buy the new television

<h3><u>Method 2:</u></h3>

<em>Total amount = amount already saved + ($77.18 per week at her job)("n" weeks)</em>

1,049.77 = 200.79 + (77.18)(n)

1049.77 - 200.79 = 77.18n

848.98 = 77.18n

n = \frac{848.98}{77.18}

n = 11

Therefore 11 weeks are required for her to work to save enough money to buy the new television

Find the lateral area of the cylinder.<br><br>Give your answer in the terms of pi.
Wewaii [24]
Hi there! 

The formula for the lateral area of a cylinder is LA = 2 x pi x r x h. (two times pi times radius times height) Using this formula, we can plug in the values and solve for the lateral area.

Plugging in the values: LA = 2 x pi x 7 x 9
Simplifying: LA = 2pi x 63
LA = 126pi yd^2

ANSWER:
The 4th option - 126pi yd^2

Hope this helps!! :)
