Answer:

C=$(4.30xy+5.40(xz+yz))

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface Area of a Cuboid=2(LW+LH+HW)

Since the top is open

Surface Area = LW+2(LH+HW)

If Length = x feet,

Width =y feet

Height = z feet

Surface Area = xy+2(xz+yz)

Area of the base=xy

If it costs $4.30 per square foot to build the base

Cost of the base=Cost Per Square Foot X Area = $4.30xy

Area of the sides =2(xz+yz)

If it costs $2.70 per square foot to build the sides

Cost of the sides=Cost Per Square Foot X Area of the sides

= 2.70 X 2(xz+yz)

=5.40(xz+yz)

Cost of Constructing the Box = Cost of Constructing the Base + Cost of Constructing the Sides.

Therefore,

C=$(4.30xy+5.40(xz+yz))

Brainliest for the first correct answer! Which scenario is modeled in the diagram below? (look at attached image)
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

D) Kaia saved $165.45 on a new guitar because it was 75 percent off. The price of the guitar before the discount was $220.60.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the attached diagram shows a model of a discount given on a purchase of guitar showing 75% of the price of guitar ($55.15 + $55.15 + $55.15) that was given.

It also tells that the price pays is 25% of the price of the guitar before the discount. I.e. 25% of %220.60 = 0.25 × 220.60 = $55.15.

From the diagram given, we can infer that Kaia bought the guitar at $55.15 while saving $165.45. That is 25% of the original price. And the amount saved, $165.45, is %75 of the original price ($55.15+$55.15+$55.15).

The answer is D.

Lisa's store collects 5% sales tax on every item sold. If she collected $22.00 in sales tax, what was the cost of the items her
Ede4ka [16]
Since we are looking for the principal amount, then all we have to do is reverse the process of getting the amount of tax. In order to get the principal, you just have to divide 22 with 0.05. The answer is 440 so that is the principal amount you are looking for.
