Answer:

$15.49

Step-by-step explanation:

14.41×.075=1.08075

(take the percent and bump the decimal point 2 back, then multiply)

To calculate the employee raise, we multiply how much he is making by the percent of his raise.

Raise= 14.41*7.5%

Change to decimal 14.41*.075

Raise=.75

His raise is $10.80

The perimeter of an equilateral triangle is 12\/3 cm. Find the radius, apothem and area of the equilateral triangle.

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

Radius - 4

Apothem - 2

Area - $12\sqrt{3}$ or 20.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Try to draw out my explanation so you know what this looks like.

~~~~

This is an equilateral triangle, so all sides are the same length. The perimeter can be divided by 3 to get each side length...

$12\sqrt{3} \div3 = 4\sqrt{3}$

Now that we know the side lengths, we can get this started!

~~~~

Now, an equilateral triangle has angles that all equal 60 degrees. We can bisect this into TWO special case triangles of measures 90-60-30.

4 times the square root of 3 will be the hypotenuse, and the smallest leg is always half of that. The larger leg is represented as the small leg times the square root of 3.

$Small=2\sqrt{3} \\Hypotenuse = 4\sqrt{3} \\Long =6$

By the way, the formula for the area can be either of the two:

$A= \frac{1}{2} bh\\or\\A = \frac{1}{2} NAS$

we can easily find the area using the first formula.

$A= \frac{1}{2} (4\sqrt{3} )(6)\\A=12\sqrt{3}$

The radius is the distance from the center to the corners & the apothem is the distance from the center to a side...

So we can divide the big triangle into a mini triangle at the bottom left/right

The height (small leg) of that triangle would be the apothem

The hypotenuse of that triangle would be the radius.

I did the math really quick because this is getting long. Anyhow, the small leg is 2 so is the apothem, and the hypotenus is 4, so is the radius

Happy April Fool's btw, lol.

A cyclist rides her bike at a rate of 5 meters per second. What is this rate in kilometers per hour ? How many kilometers will t

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

18 km/hr

90 km

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that there are

1000 m = 1 km

and

3600 s = 1 hr

We need to convert m/s to km/h

5 m 3600s 1 km 18000km 18 km

------ * ------------ * ------------ = --------------- = ------------

s 1 hr 1000m 1000 hr hr

It is 18 km/hr since the units cancel.

We want to know how far the cyclist travels

d=rt

We know the rate 18km/hr and the time = 5 hr

d = 18 km/hr * 5 hr

d =90 km

PLS HELP

14 pizzas.

First, add up the numbers of players on each team and the coachesto get the total number of people eating.
17 + 21 + 20 + 17 + 9 = 84

Then, you can divide 84 by 6 to see how many pizzas: 84/6 = 14

If you’re teacher wants you to set it up as a ratio, it’s 6/1 = 84/x

Then you cross-multiply:
6x = 84
Divide both sides by 6
x = 14
