-5(20 + 3)

First, in the parentheses, add 20 + 3. / Your problem should look like: $-5$ × $23$

Second, since the parentheses indicate multiplication, multiply 5 × 23. / Your problem should look like: $-115$

Answer: -115

Whenever a number is beside a parenthesis without a sign it means multiplication. So you would use PEMDAS work in parenthesis then exponents, multiplication (from left to right) addition and subtraction (from left to right). so you would add 20+3 and get 23 then multiply that by -5 to get -115 as your answer.

Aless and Louis are going to put a rectangular pool in their backyard. The cost of installation is $6,000. If the dimensions of

lana [24]

Answer:

cost of the pool per cubic meters = $5

Step-by-step explanation:

The rectangular pool has a dimension of 30 m by 20 m by 2 m. To know the cost of the pool per cubic meter we have to calculate the volume of the pool . Then divide the total cost of the pool by it volume.

volume of the rectangular pool = length × height × width

volume of the rectangular pool = 30 × 20 × 2

volume of the rectangular pool = 1200 m²

The cost of installation is $6000 . The volume of the pool is 1200 cubic meters.

cost per cubic meters = total cost of installation/volume

cost per cubic meters = 6000/1200

cost of the pool per cubic meters = $5

Find the perimeter of this shape

telo118 [61]

To find the circumference of a semi-circle, it would be 1/2 π × d. So, pi (3.14) times the diameter, 5 would be 15.7, but then we would need to multiply it by 1/2 to get the circumference for half the circle, and that will get you 7.85. Now you can add all the lengths now. 7.85 + 7 + 5 + 7 = 26.85. Hope this helps! Let me know if you still don't get it. <3

James works for a delivery company. He gets paid a flat rate of $5 each day he works, plus an additional amount of money for eve

otez555 [7]

Answer:

(a) The rate of change for the money earned, measured as dollars per delivery, between 0 and 2 deliveries is $2.

(b) The rate of change is the same between the two time intervals.

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of change for a variables based on another variable is known as the slope.

The formula to compute the slope is:

$\text{Slope}=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

(a)

Compute the rate of change for the money earned, measured as dollars per delivery, between 0 and 2 deliveries as follows:

For, x₁ = 0 and x₂ = 2 deliveries the money earned are y₁ = $5 and y₂ = $9.

The rate of change for the money earned is:

$\text{Slope}=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

$=\frac{9-5}{2-0}\\\\=\frac{4}{2}\\\\=2$

Thus, the rate of change for the money earned, measured as dollars per delivery, between 0 and 2 deliveries is $2.

(b)

Compute the rate of change for the money earned, measured as dollars per delivery, between 2 and 4 deliveries as follows:

For, x₁ = 2 and x₂ = 4 deliveries the money earned are y₁ = $9 and y₂ = $13.

The rate of change for the money earned is:

$\text{Slope}=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

$=\frac{13-9}{4-2}\\\\=\frac{4}{2}\\\\=2$

The rate of change for the money earned, measured as dollars per delivery, between 2 and 4 deliveries is $2.

Compute the rate of change for the money earned, measured as dollars per delivery, between 6 and 8 deliveries as follows:

For, x₁ = 6 and x₂ = 8 deliveries the money earned are y₁ = $17 and y₂ = $21.

The rate of change for the money earned is:

$\text{Slope}=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

$=\frac{17-21}{8-6}\\\\=\frac{4}{2}\\\\=2$

The rate of change for the money earned, measured as dollars per delivery, between 6 and 8 deliveries is $2.

Thus, the rate of change is the same between the two time intervals.
