The definition of a square is a plane figure with four equal straight sides and four right angles. The definition of a rectangle is a plane figure with four right sides and four right angles. To be a rectangle you just need four straight sides and four right angles, but to be a square all those sides have to be equal. Therefore, a square is a rectangle because it has four straight sides and four right angles, but a rectangle isn't a square (or not always) because it doesn't have four equal straight sides.

Beacuse  <span>A square by definition is a "plane figure having four equal sides." Rectangles' sides are not equal and hence cannot be a square. 

A rectangle by definition is a "four-sided plane figure with 4 right angles" - which also implies that a square can be a rectangle because it is also a four-sided plane figure with 4 right angles...... hope this helps</span>

Find the values of x and y that make k || j and
MArishka [77]

Answer:

  • x = 80°
  • y = 130°

Step-by-step explanation:

The interior is a parallelogram when adjacent angles are supplementary. This requires ...

  (x -30)° + (x +50)° = 180°

  2x + 20 = 180 . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms, divide by °

  2x = 160 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 20

  x = 80 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

Then the angle x+50 is ...

  (x +50)° = (80 +50)° = 130°

This is also the measure of the angle marked y.

For the lines to be parallel, x = 80, y = 130°.

The Campbell Company is considering adding a robotic paint sprayer to its production line. The sprayer's base price is $1,020,00
tatyana61 [14]

1. The Year-0 net cash flow is -$1,061,500.

2. The net operating cash flows in Years 1, 2, and 3 are as follows:

Year 1: $288,750 ($386,000 x 1 - 0.25)

Year 2: $288,750 ($386,000 x 1 - 0.25)

Year 3: $288,750 ($386,000 x 1 - 0.25)

3. The additional Year-3 cash flow (i.e, the after-tax salvage and the return of working capital) is $468,750 {($599,000 x 1 - 0.25) + $19,500}.

4. The NPV of the project is ($13,139).

5. The machine should not be purchased because it does not yield a positive NPV.

<h3>What is the net present value?</h3>

The net present value (NPV) shows the difference between the present value of cash inflows and the present value of cash outflows over a period of time.

It is determined by calculating the present values of cash flows using their present value factors as below:

<h3>Data and Calculations:</h3>

Initial cash outlay = $1,061,500 ($1,020,000 + $22,000 + $19,500)

Salvage value = $599,000

Increase in net working capital = $19,500

Annual savings before tax = $386,000

Tax rate = 25%

Annuial savings after tax = $288,750 ($386,000 x 1 - 0.25)

<h3>Determination of Net Present Value (NPV):</h3>

Year      Cashflows        PV Factor     Present Value

0          -$1,061,500               1             -$1,061,500

1              $288,750          0.901           $260,164

2             $288,750          0.812          $234,465

3             $288,750          0.731            $211,076

3             $468,750          0.731          $342,656

Net present value                                -$13,139

Thus, the project should not be undertaken by The Campbell Company due to the negative NPV that it yields.
