Answer: Each person´s share of the cost is $238.75 (option b)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to solve this problem we have to analyze the information given:

  • Cost of the sofa (s) = $955
  • Number of roommates (n) = 4

Cost: c

Formula: c= s/n

To calculate each person´s share we simply have to use the formula, using the values given:

So:

c = $955 /4 = $238.75

Each person´s share of the cost is $238.75 (option b)

Feel free to ask for more if it´s necessary or if you did not understand something.

Find the perimeter and the area of each shape. Give your answer as a completely simplified exact value in terms of π (no approxi
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

Circumference: 12π + 8 cm,

Area: 48 ( cm )^2

Step-by-step explanation:

This figure is composed of circles, squares, and semicircles. As you can see, the squares indicate that each semicircle should have ( 1 ) the same area, and ( 2 ) the same length ( circumference ). It would be easier to take the circumference of the figure first, as it is composed of arcs part of semicircles the same length.

Circumference of 1 semicircle = \frac{1}{2}( πd ) =  \frac{1}{2}π( 4 ) = 2π ( cm )

Circumference of Figure (composed of 6 semicircles + 2 sides of a square),

We know that 6 semicircles should be 6 * 2π, and as the sides of a square are equal - if one side is 4 cm, the other 3 are 4 cm as well. Therefore the " 2 sides of a square " should be 2

Circumference of Figure = 6 * 2π + 2 = 12π + 8 ( cm )

_____________

The area of this figure is our next target. As you can see, it is composed of 3 semicircles, and the area of 3 semicircles subtracted from the area of 3 squares. Therefore, let us calculate the area of 1 semicircle, and the area of 1 square first.

Area of 1 semicircle = 1/2πr^2 = 1/2π(2)^2 = 2π ( cm ),

Area of 1 square = ( 4 cm )( 4 cm ) = 16 ( cm^2 )

So, the area of the figure should be the following -

Area of Figure = 3 * 2π + 3( 16 - 2π ) = 48 ( cm )^2

Referring to triangle ABC, find the area of the triangle.
kondaur [170]

Answer:

Area = 337

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

a = 42.5

c = 35.5

B = 153.5^\circ

Required

Area of triangle

This is calculated as:

Area = 0.5 *a* c * \sin(B)

This gives:

Area = 0.5 *42.5* 35.5 * \sin(153.5)

Area = 0.5 *42.5* 35.5 * 0.4462

Area = 336.602125

Area = 337 --- approximated
