Answer:

1.2 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume that each room is rectangular with four walls and no doors. If the dimensions are length l, by width w with height h, then there are two walls with area l*h and two walls with w*h.

The total area of the room is thus: 2lh + 2wh = 2h(l+w).

l = 12ft, w = 12ft, h = 10ft  (all given)

Area of walls = 2h(l+w) = 2*10(12+12)

Area = 2*10*24 = 480 square feet

Each gallon of paint covers 400 square feet. So, you will need to buy

480 / 400 = 1.2 gallons

You will need to buy 2 gallons

Find the standard form of the equation of the circle with endpoints of a diameter at the points (3,8) and (-7,2)
poizon [28]

(x+2)^{2}+(y-5)^{2}= 34

The equation of a circle in standard form is

(x-a)^{2}+(y-b)^{2}=r^{2}

where (a , b) are the coordinates of the centre and r is the radius

The centre is at the midpoint of the endpoints and the radius is the distance from the centre to either of the 2 endpoints

Using the midpoint formula

midpoint = [\frac{1}{2}(xx_{1}+x_{2}, \frac{1}{2}(y_{1}+y_{2}

where (x_{1},y_{1}=(3,8) and (x_{2},y_{2}=(-7,2)

centre = (\frac{1}{2}(3-7),\frac{1}{2}(8+2)) = (-2,5)

Calculate r using the distance formula

r = √(x_{2}-x_{1})²+(y_{2}-y_{1})²)

= √((3+2)²+(8-5)²) = √(25+9) = √34 ⇒ r² =(√34)² = 34

equation of circle is : (x+2)²+(y-5)² = 34

dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

The sum of two numbers is 25. One of the numbers exceeds the other by 9. Find numbers

<h3>here</h3>

the other number = x + 9

Let the number be x. 

Sum of two numbers = 25

According to question, x + x + 9 = 25

⇒ 2x + 9 = 25

⇒ 2x = 25 - 9

⇒ 2x = 16

⇒ 2x/2 = 16/2

⇒ x = 8

Therefore, x + 9 = 8 + 9 = 17

Therefore, the two numbers are 8 and 17.

fiasKO [112]

Answer:

Standard Deviation = 5.928

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Data:

Days  Hours spent  (Mean - Hour)²

1              5                61.356

2             7                34.024

3            11                  3.360

4           14                   1.362

5           18               26.698

6          22               84.034

6 days 77 hours,    210.834

mean

77/6 = 12.833    and 210.83/6 =  35.139

Therefore, the square root of 35.139 = 5.928

b) The standard deviation of 5.928 shows how the hours students spend outside of class on class work varies from the mean of the total hours they spend outside of class on class work.
