The building is 24 (whatever’s you want ex. Meters, Feet) high. Because 38.7=tan^-1(height/30). Or cos(38.7)=30/hypotenuse. Hypotenuse=30/cos(38.7

Find the perimeter. Explain what you added together to get your answer. You can get partial credit for explaining steps, even if

Answer:

the area of the shape is 7.14

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the area of the square:

2 in x 2 in = 4 in

then to find the area of the semi- circles add them together to make a circle

To find the area of the circle, use:

pi x radius^2

Since the diameter is 2 divide the diameter by 2 to get radius

3.14 x 1^2 = 3.14

The circle is 3.14 plus 4 ( the square ) = 7.14

The paint mixer wants to mix paint that is 30% gloss with paint that is 15% gloss to make 3.75 gallons of paint that is 20% glos

Kipish [7]

The paint mixer should mix 1.238 gallon paint that is 30 % gloss and 2.512 gallon paint that is 15 % gloss to get 3.75 gallon of paint that is 20 % gloss.

In this question we must determine the correct volumes of each paint to obtain a 20 % gloss with paint by means of weighted averages:

$c_{r} = x\cdot c_{a} +(1-x)\cdot c_{b}$ (1)

Where:

$x$ - Proportion of the paint that is 30 % gloss.
$c_{a}$ - Concentration ratio of the paint that is 30 % gloss.
$c_{b}$ - Concentration ratio of the paint that is 15 % gloss.
$c_{r}$ - Resulting concentration ratio

If we know that $c_{a} = 0.3$ , $c_{b} = 0.15$ and $c_{r} = 0.2$ , then the proportion of the paint that is 30 % gloss is:

$0.2 = 0.3\cdot x +(1-x)\cdot 0.15$

$0.2 = 0.15\cdot x+0.15$

$0.15\cdot x = 0.05$

$x = 0.33$

And the quantity of gallons needed of each paint are:

Paint (30 % gloss)

$V_{a} = 0.33\cdot (3.75\,gal)$

$V_{a} = 1.238\,gal$

Paint (15 % gloss)

$V_{b} = V-V_{a}$

$V_{b} = 3.75\,gal-1.238\,gal$

$V_{b} = 2..512\,gal$

The paint mixer should mix 1.238 gallon paint that is 30 % gloss and 2.512 gallon paint that is 15 % gloss to get 3.75 gallon of paint that is 20 % gloss.
