to the risk of sounding redundant, as the previous posting is absolutely correct.

Check the picture below.

we know the circum-inscribing figure is a square, namely a 23x20, so it has an area of 23*20 = 460 ft².

the distance from the bottom up, is 20, however to the tip of the triangle is 12, so the diffference is 20 - 12 = 8, meaning the triangle, in yellow, has a height/altitude of 8 ft, and we know its base is 23 ft.

so if we simply take the whole area of the square, and then subtract the area of the triangle, we're in effect making a whole in the squarish area, and what's leftover is the shaded area.

\bf \stackrel{\textit{square's area}}{(23\cdot 20)}~~~~-~~~~\stackrel{\textit{triangle's area}}{\cfrac{1}{2}(23)(8)}\implies 460~~-~~92\implies 368~ft^2

Answer: 368 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Pretend it is a square and multiply both sides (23*20=460). The triangle that is cut out has an area of 92 (23*8/2). We know the height of the triangle is 8 because 20-12. We subtract 460-92 and get our answer. :)

A pair of shoes is on sale for 15% off. With this discount, customers will save $9 if they buy the shoes. Part AIn this situatio
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

(b)The original price of the shoes is $60.

Explanation:

Part A

In this situation:

• 15% is the PERCENT

,

• $9 is the PART

,

• The original price is the WHOLE.

Part B

If 15% is taken off, the customer will save $9.

This means that 15% of the original price = $9.

Let the original price=p

\begin{gathered} 15\%\text{ of p=9} \\ \frac{15}{100}p=9 \\ 15p=900 \\ p=\frac{900}{15} \\ p=60 \end{gathered}

The original price of the shoes is $60.

Find the integer that lies between <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%24%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B-45%7D%24%20and%20%24%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B-
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

∛(-45) = ∛((-1) × 45) = ∛(-1) × ∛45 = -∛45

Similarly,

∛(-101) = - ∛101

Now,

• 3³ = 27 and 4³ = 64, and 27 < 46 < 64, so ∛27 < ∛45 < ∛64, which places ∛45 between 3 and 4

• 5³ = 125, so ∛101 would similarly fall between 4 and 5

So to summarize, we have

3 < ∛45 < 4 < ∛101 < 5

so that

-5 < ∛(-45) < -4 < ∛(-101) < -3

so the integer between these numbers is -4.

A large high school offers AP Statistics and AP Calculus Among the seniors in this school 65% take AP Statistics, 45% take AP Ca
Igoryamba

Answer:

0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

P(AP statistics) = 65%

P(AP Calculus) = 45%

P(AP statistics n AP Calculus) = 30%

Probability of AP statistics or AP Calculus but not both :

Probability of event A or B :

P(AUB) = p(A) + p(B) - p(AnB)

P(AP statistics U AP Calculus) = P(AP statistics) + P(AP Calculus) - P(AP statistics n AP Calculus)

= 0.65 + 0.45 - 0.30

= 0.8

= 80%

Every economic decision has only positive benefits. gained opportunities. unavoidable limitations. a consequence or tradeoff.
Alina [70]
Every economic decision has "a consequence or tradeoff" - this final answer choice is correct. Every time that an individual, business, or institution makes an economic decision, they always forgo an opportunity to use the same capital or resources for other endeavors. As such, there is a tradeoff incurred by not making the decision to use the resource in another manner. This is known as opportunity cost and is one of the fundamental tenets of economic theory.
