Answer:

It will cost John $14 to paint his room.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to calculate the whole area (in square feet) that John would have to paint. This area would include the area covered by the ceiling and walls, and exclude the area covered by the door and two windows:

1. Area covered by the ceiling = 14 × 8 = 112 square feet

2. Area covered by walls = perimeter of ceiling × height of wall = 2 × (14 + 8) × 7 = 308 square feet

3. Area covered by the door and two windows = (6 × 3) + (3 × 2.5 × 2) = 33 square feet

(Note: width of window = 30 inches = 2.5 feet)

Therefore, the area that would need to be painted = 112 + 308 — 33 = 387 square feet.

If John can use one quart to paint 100 square feet at $3.50, then he would need 3.87 quarts to paint 387 square feet; however, since he has to buy whole quarts, he would need 4 quarts instead of 3.87, and this would cost = 4 × 3.50 = $14

4x/9=5/27 what is the value of x
Korvikt [17]
4x/9 = 5/27
Multiply both sides by 9 to give
4x = 45/27
Now multiply both sides by 27 to give
108x = 45
Now divide both sides by 108 to give
x = 45/108
Reduce the fraction to give
x = 5/12

What is 20% by 37 decreased
Ghella [55]

Answer:

<u><em>37 decreased by 20% is </em></u><u><em>29.6.</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>To do this, what we do is simply </em></u><u><em>take 20% of 37 and subtract it from 37.</em></u>

<u><em>20% of 37.</em></u><u><em> A trick to easily figure this out is </em></u><u><em>multipling 37 by 20 and dividing by 100.</em></u>

<u><em>37*20 = 740</em></u>

<u><em>740 / 100 = 7.40</em></u>

<u><em>37 - 7.40 = 29.6</em></u>

<u><em>37 decreased by 20% is </em></u><u><em>29.6.</em></u>

F(x)=-x^2+6x+14 vertex
sasho [114]

Answer:

Vertex: (3, 23)

Step-by-step explanation:

a = -1   b = 6   c = 14

x vertex = \frac{-b}{2a}

\frac{-6}{-2}=3

f(x)-x^{2} +6x+14\\f(3) = -(3)^{2}+6(3) + 14 \\f(3)=-9+18+14\\f(3)=23
