Answer:

  54 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of the room is the sum of wall lengths:

  2·(15 feet) + 2·(12 feet) = 30 feet + 24 feet = 54 feet

The border should be cut to 54 feet.

_____

<em>Comment on the question</em>

This seems to be a math problem designed to get you to figure the perimeter of the room. If you were actually installing wallpaper, you might want to cut the border in four (4) pieces, each slightly longer than the corresponding wall. That way any lack of squareness in the corners could be managed more easily, and the possibility of a gap at the seam could be eliminated.

Find the interest due on $600 at 9.5% for 120 days.
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

Interest= $ 18.73

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : $600 at 9.5% for 120 days

To find : Find the interest due

Solution :

Simple interest formula  I=P\times r\times t

Principle(P)=$600 , rate(r)=9.5%=0.095 , time (t)= 120 days

In years, 1 year = 365 days

1 day = \frac{1}{365} year

120 days = \frac{120}{365} year

Put values in the formula

I=P\times r\times t

I=600\times 0.095\times\frac{120}{365}

 I=\frac{6840}{365}=18.73

Therefore, Interest= $ 18.73

Jake plans to take a summer job at the recreation center as a lifeguard. He can be paid according to two different plans.
Jlenok [28]

Payment on Plan A = $300

x is the number of hours Jake works.

Payment on Plan B = Fixed charges + (charge per hour) × (number of hours worked)

                               = $150 + $6.25(x)

                               = 150 + 6.25x

Since, the payment on Plan B should be more than Plan A,

150 + 6.25x > 300

6.25x > 300 - 150

6.25x > 150

x > \frac{150}{6.25}

x > 24

The minimum vale for x which satisfies this inequality is 25.

Hence, x = 25.
