Answer:

10657.5

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2>Long way that is unnecessarily long</h2>

We can start by finding the area of the larger triangle. Using the Pythagorean theorem, we can say that 251²-105²=the bottom side², and 251²-105²=51976, so the bottom side of the larger triangle is √51976 , or approximately 228. Then, the area of the larger triangle is √51976 * 105/2 = 11969 (approximately). Then, the area of the smallest triangle (the largest triangle - the one that we're trying to find the area of) is 105*(√51976-203)/2 = approximately 1312. Then, subtracting that from the total area, we get (√51976 * 105 - 105*(√51976-203))/2 = 105*203/2 = 10657.5

<h2>Short way</h2>

ALTERNATIVELY, upon further review, we can just see that the height is 105 and the base is 203, so we multiply those two and divide by 2, as is the formula for the area of a triangle, to get 10657.5

<h3>Solution:</h3>

$\sqrt{32} \times \sqrt{ \frac{1}{18} } \\ = \sqrt{32} \times \frac{ \sqrt{1} }{ \sqrt{18} } \\ = \sqrt{32} \times \frac{1}{ \sqrt{18} } \\ = \frac{\sqrt{2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2}}{ \sqrt{2 \times 3 \times 3} } \\ = \frac{ \sqrt{ {2}^{2} \times {2}^{2} \times 2} }{ \sqrt{2 \times {3}^{2} } } \\ = \frac{2 \times 2 \times \sqrt{2} }{3 \times \sqrt{2} } \\ = \frac{4 \times \sqrt{2} }{3 \times \sqrt{2} } \\ = \frac{4}{3}$

<h3>Answer:</h3>

$\frac{4}{3}$

Calvin works at a facility which processes apples. It costs the facility $0. 68 to make either a jar of applesauce or a bottle o

NNADVOKAT [17]

The number of bottles the facility requires to sell when it breaks is given by

a system of two simultaneous equations.

When the facility breaks even, it would have sold 7<u>7,579 bottles of apples juice</u>.

Reasons:

The cost to make a jar of applesauce or a bottle of apple juice = $0.68

Number of jars of applesauce to be sold foe every 2 bottles of apple juice = 3 jars

The selling price for a jar of applesauce = $2.20

Selling price for a bottle of apple juice = $3.15

Annual overhead cost excluding production cost = $368,500

Required: Number of bottles of apple juice sold by the facility when it breaks even annually.

Solution:

Let <em>J</em> represent the number of bottles of apple juice sold, and let <em>S</em> represent the number of jars of apple sauce, by excluding the production cost, we have;

(3.15 - 0.68)·J + (2.2 - 0.68)·S = 368,500

S : J = 3 : 2

Which gives;

$\displaystyle \frac{S}{J} = \mathbf{ \frac{3}{2}}$
