Sophie [7]
Equation : c = (2.80 / 7) + 0.75

Normal price of each cookie:
c = (2.80 / 7) + 0.75
c = 0.4 + 0.75
c = $1.15

Water flows from a tank with a rectangular base measuring 80cm by 70cm into another tank with a squarebase of side 60cm. If the
defon

Answer:

70cm

Step-by-step explanation:

,

Since, both of the tank posses the same quantity of water then there volume is the same thing

For rectangular base

Volume= (Lenght × breadth × hheight)

If we substitute values

Lenght= 80 cm

Breadth= 70 cm

height= 45 cm

Volume= 80cm × 70cm × 45cm

Volume= 252000cm^3

For square base

Volume= (side)^2 × height

side =60cm.

But volume of square base= volume of

rectangular base

252000cm^3= 60^2 × height

Height= (252000cm^3)/(60^2 )

Height= 70 cm

Hence, the second tank is 70 cm deep

A department store sells small boxes in which customers can store potpourri. The diagram below shows one of the boxes. The diagr
larisa86 [58]
The lateral area is expressed as the product of the perimeter of the base and the height. While the surface area is the sum of all areas. The lateral area and the surface area of the box is calculated as follows:

LA = Ph 
P = 2l + 2w = (2 x 17) + (2 x 5) = 44 cm
LA = 44 cm x 3.12 cm = 137.28 cm

SA = 2(lw + wh + lh)
SA = 2[(17x5) + (5x3.12) + (17x3.12)]
SA = 307.28 cm

Thus, the lateral area and the surface area are 137 cm and 307 cm, respectively.
