consuela's living room is a rectangle with an area of 360 square feet. the width of the living room is 5/8 its length. what is t

Aleks [24]

Area of Consuela's rectangular living room = 360 square feet
Let us assume the the length of the living room = x
Then
width of the living room = (5/8) * x
= (5x/8)
Then
Area of the rectangle = Length * Width
360 = x * (5x/8)
360 = 5x^2/8
2880 = 5x^2
x^2 = 2880/5
x^2 = 576
x^2 = (24)^2 inches
x = 24
Then
The length of the rectangle is = 24 inches
And
The Width of the rectangle is = 24 * (5/8) inches
= 3 * 5 inches
= 15 inches

1 pt) If a parametric surface given by r1(u,v)=f(u,v)i+g(u,v)j+h(u,v)k and −4≤u≤4,−4≤v≤4, has surface area equal to 1, what is t

natta225 [31]

The area of the surface given by $\vec r_1(u,v)$ is 1. In terms of a surface integral, we have

$1=\displaystyle\int_{-4}^4\int_{-4}^4\left\|\frac{\partial\vec r_1(u,v)}{\partial u}\times\frac{\partial\vec r_1(u,v)}{\partial v}\right\|\,\mathrm du\,\mathrm dv$

By multiplying each component in $\vec r_1$ by 5, we have

$\dfrac{\partial\vec r_2(u,v)}{\partial u}=5\dfrac{\partial\vec r_1(u,v)}{\partial u}$

and the same goes for the derivative with respect to $v$ . Then the area of the surface given by $\vec r_2(u,v)$ is

$\displaystyle\int_{-4}^4\int_{-4}^425\left\|\frac{\partial\vec r_1(u,v)}{\partial u}\times\frac{\partial\vec r_1(u,v)}{\partial v}\right\|\,\mathrm du\,\mathrm dv=\boxed{25}$

1. General Trades A roofer earns $24 per hour plus $36 per hour overtime. If he puts in 40 hours of regular time during a certai

snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

He should work $6\frac{2}{3}$ hours in overtime.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represents the number of hours of regular time and y represents the number of hours of overtime,

Since, earnings are $24 per hour for regular time and $36 per hour for overtime,

Thus, total earning = (24x + 36y) dollars,

Here, x = 40 hours and total earning = $ 1200,

By substituting the values,

1200 = 24(40) + 36y

1200 = 960 + 36y

240 = 36y

⇒ $y = 6\frac{2}{3}\text{ hours}$

Hence, he should work $6\frac{2}{3}$ hours in overtime.

In the figure, AA′ = 33 m and BC = 7.5 m. The span is divided into six equal parts at E, G, C, I, and K. Find the length of A′B.

Umnica [9.8K]

The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "18.12."
The image of this triangle is an isosceles triangle<span> with the base being 33 m (from angle A to angle A') and the right leg is 7.5 m long (BC) the span or width of the triangle is divided by 6 vertical lines with equal distances from each other. so we need to find the length of the left leg AB.</span>
