Answer:

5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

We can express the information given using an equation

y = 0.75(x - 1) + 2

Where y represents the total amount charged and x represents the hours

If Nate has only $5, we can plug that into y and solve for x

5 = 0.75(x - 1) + 2

3 = .75(x - 1)

4 = x - 1

5 = x

Nate can park for 5 hours

Answer:

150 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

area of triangle is 1/2(6)(9.5) = 28.5

there are 4 triangles

28.5 x 4 = 114

bottom is 6 x 6 = 36

114 + 36 = 150 m²

1-58. Mr. Wright was making a table to figure out how much it costs to send a certain numt

Drupady [299]

A table of values can be used to represent variables that are directly proportional.

The complete table of proportions is:

$\left[\begin{array}{ccccccccc}Letters&10&2&[150 ]&7&1&500&[420] \\Cost&0.45&0.90&6.75&[0.315]&[0.045 ]&[22.5 ] & 18.90\end{array}\right]$

Given that

$\left[\begin{array}{ccccccccc}Letters&10&2&[\ ]&7&1&500&[\ ] \\Cost&0.45&0.90&6.75&[\ ]&[\ ]&[\ ] & 18.90\end{array}\right]$

Let:

<em /> $L \to$ <em> Letters</em>

<em /> $C \to$ <em> Cost</em>

<em />

Using proportional reasoning, we have:

$C = kL$

Where

<em /> $k \to$ <em> ratio of proportion</em>

For the first values of C and L, we have:

$C = kL$

$0.45 = k \times 10$

Divide both sides by 10

$k = 0.045$

So, the equation of proportion is:

$C = 0.045L$

<u>When C = 6.75, we have:</u>

$C = 0.045L$

$6.75 = 0.045L$

Solve for L

$L = \frac{6.75}{0.045}$

$L = 150$

<u>When L = 7, we have:</u>

$C = 0.045L$

$C = 0.045 \times 7$

$C = 0.315$

<u>When L = 1, we have:</u>

$C = 0.045L$

$C = 0.045 \times 1$

$C = 0.045$

<u>When L = 500, we have:</u>

$C =0.045L\\$

$C =0.045 \times 500$

$C =22.5$

<u>When C = 18.90, we have:</u>

$C = 0.045L$

$18.90 = 0.045L$

Solve for L

$L=\frac{18.90}{0.045}$

$L=420$

Hence, the complete table is:

$\left[\begin{array}{ccccccccc}Letters&10&2&[150 ]&7&1&500&[420] \\Cost&0.45&0.90&6.75&[0.315]&[0.045 ]&[22.5 ] & 18.90\end{array}\right]$

You have 100 yards of fencing available to create an enclosure for farm animals. As the

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

1. area of a pentagon when 1 side is x is $\frac{x^2}{4}\sqrt{5(5+2\sqrt{5})}$
so if perimiter is 100 then one side is 100/5 or 20
area will be $\frac{20^2}{4}\sqrt{5(5+2\sqrt{5})}$ ≈<span>688.2 square yards

2. area of a hexagon when 1 side is length x is $\frac{3x^2\sqrt{3}}{2}$
so if permiter is 100 then length of one side is 100/6 or about 16.666666666666
the area will be $\frac{3(16.6666666)^2\sqrt{3}}{2}$ ≈721.7 square yards

3. area of a regular octagon with side lenghts x is $2(1+\sqrt{2})x^2$
so if 8 sides then side length of each is 100/8 or 12.5
area will be $2(1+\sqrt{2})12.5^2$ ≈754.4 square yards

octagon wil have most space
you can tell because the more sides it has, the more it gets to a circle and the more area it encloses with a given perimiter
