Answer: 4.4

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating the area of regular hexagon is given as :

Area = $\frac{3\sqrt{3}}{2}$ $a^{2}$

Where a is the length of a side.

Substituting the value given , we have :

50 = $\frac{3\sqrt{3}}{2}$ $a^{2}$

50 x 2 = $3\sqrt{3}$ $a^{2}$

100 = $3\sqrt{3}$ $a^{2}$

Divide through by $3\sqrt{3}$

$a^{2}$ = $\frac{100}{3\sqrt{3}}$

$a^{2}$ = 19.24500897

Take the square root of both sides :

a = $\sqrt{19.24500897}$

a = 4.3869

To the nearest tenth

a = 4.4

janelle wishes to finance a car for $33,000. the bank's annual interest rate is 3.5%, and she can choose between durations of fi

Harman [31]

Answer:

For a duration of 5 years, Monthly Payment =$600.42

For a duration of 6 years, Monthly Payment =$508.83

Step-by-step explanation:

$P=\dfrac{ar (1+r)^n}{(1+r)^n-1} \\$

where a= Amount to Finance=$33,000

Annual interest rate = 3.5%=0.035

r=Monthly Interest Rate= 0.035 ÷ 12 = $\frac{7}{2400}$

n=number of months to pay

For a duration of 5 years

n=5X12=60 months

$P=\dfrac{ar (1+r)^n}{(1+r)^n-1} \\\\P=\dfrac{33000 X\frac{7}{2400} (1+\frac{7}{2400} )^{60}}{(1+\frac{7}{2400})^{60}-1} \\=\dfrac{96.25 (1.1909)}{1.1909-1}\\=\dfrac{96.25 (1.1909)}{0.1909}\\=\dfrac{114.62}{0.1909}=\$600.42$

For a duration of 6 years

n=6X12=72 months

$P=\dfrac{ar (1+r)^n}{(1+r)^n-1} \\\\P=\dfrac{33000 X\frac{7}{2400} (1+\frac{7}{2400} )^{72}}{(1+\frac{7}{2400})^{72}-1} \\=\dfrac{96.25 (1.2333)}{1.2333-1}\\=\dfrac{96.25 (1.2333)}{0.2333}\\=\dfrac{118.71}{0.2333}=\$508.83$

Find Lateral Surface area

fiasKO [112]

Answer:

To find the lateral surface area, we will find half of the perimeter of the base and multiply it by the slant height of the side triangles. Each triangle has a slant height. The slant height is the height of each triangle, not the height of the pyramid.

What the answer is and how?

sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

PerimeterFigure= pi*DIameter/2= 1.5*pi ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the length of the figure, since we are dealing with an semi-circle, we can use the perimeter equation for a full circle and divide it by half.

Perimeter= 2pi*R= pi*Diameter.

Since Our figure is a semi circle, as we say earlier, we now will divide the above result by half.

PerimeterFigure= pi*DIameter/2= 1.5*pi ft.
