Answer:

Richard is  making $9.6 per hour now

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Initial amount Richard was earning =  $10/hr

Due to lass in productivity 20% pay was cut

Amount Richard was earning after 20% pay cut =  $8/hour.

After few again due to increase in productivity Diane gave a 20% raise.

To Find:

How much is Richard making now = ?

Solution:

Let the amount that Richard is making now be x

Then

x =  8+  20% of 8

x = 8 + \frac{20}{100} \times 8

x = 8 + 0.2 \times 8

x = 8 + 1.6

x = 9.6

First write as an equation:

<u>3000/32*3.75 =</u>

3000/16*3.75

Then that equals:

0.5

So that means her mom's car would be half as efficent as the new one

Can an expert help with this
SVEN [57.7K]

The formula of an area of a circle:

A_O=\pi r^2

We have

r = 1.8 m

π ≈ 3.14

Substitute:

A_O=\pi\cdot1.8^2=3.24\pi\ m^2\approx3.24\cdot3.14=10.1736\ m^2\approx10.17\ m^2

Is this multiplication? Can you also help me with the answer!?
vredina [299]

Answer:

84,375 m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the surface area of the pyramid. The pyramid can be divided into 4 triangles and one square (the bottom).

Area of a triangle is 1/2*b*h where b is the base of the triangle and h is the height.

Area of a square is length times width.

Total area = 4\times(\frac{1}{2}\times 225 \times 75)+225\times225 = 84375 m^2

A standard clock has a 1-cm hour hand and a 2-cm minute hand. At 12 pm, they are both pointing in the same direction and the dis
Levart [38]

Answer:

The distance between the hands is √(3)cm ≈ 1.73cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a standard clock, the angle between every number is 30°, therefore the angle between 12 and 2 will be 30° x 2 = 60°.

Looking at the diagram, to find c we can make use of our cosine formula

c² = a² + b² –2abCos(C°)

a = 2, b = 1 and C° = 60°

Therefore we have:

c² = 2² + 1² –2 x 2 x 1 x cos(60°) =

c² = 4 + 1 – 4 x 0.5 =

c² = 5 – 2 =

c² = 3

c = √(3) ≈ 1.73

Therefore, the distance between the hands is √(3)cm ≈ 1.73cm.
