X*80+y*60= 50*74
x      +y      =50            | * ( -60)

80x  + 60y= 50*74
-60x  - 60y=-50*60
---------------------------
20x= 50*(74-60)=50*14
x=50*14/20=35 pounds of 80 cents tea
y=50-35=15 pounds of 60 cents tea

Find the total surface area of this cone. Round to the nearest tenth.
leva [86]

Step-by-step explanation:

for given cone:

h = 3 ft, r = 3 ft

Let l be the Slant height of cone.

\therefore \: l =  \sqrt{ {h}^{2}  +  {r}^{2} }  \\  =  \sqrt{ {3}^{2} +  {3}^{2}  }  \\  =  \sqrt{9 + 9}  \\  =  \sqrt{2 \times 9}  \\   \therefore \: l= 3 \sqrt{2}  \: ft \\  \\ total \: surface \: area \: of \: cone \\  = \pi \: r(l + r) \\  = 3.14 \times 3(3 \sqrt{2}  + 3) \\  = 9.42 \times 3( \sqrt{2}  + 1) \\  = 28.26 \times (1.414 + 1) \\  = 28.26 \times 2.414 \\  = 68.21964 \\  \approx \: 68.2 \:  {ft}^{2}

sergij07 [2.7K]
She earned 661.50 dollars. If she worked 7.5 hrs each day Mon-Wed, she worked 22.5 hrs from Mon-Wed because 7.5 times 3 is 22.5. She also worked 6 hrs on Sat. and 5.25 hrs on Sun., so in total, she worked 33.75 hrs last week. To find out her pay, we have to multiply the total hrs by the amount she gets payed, 19.60. 33.75x19.60 is 661.50, the amount she got payed last week.

Interest calculated on a balance every three months is said to be compounded quarterly.
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

The year is typically divided into equal different lengths of time. There are, for example, quarters, which divide the year by 4, i. e., in 4 periods of 3 months each. Other example are semesters, in this case, the year is divided into 2 periods of 6 months each. Taking this into account, an interest calculated on a balance every three months is compounded quarterly.
