If x represents the number of hours Shelton worked, then the expression 10.25x shows how much Shelton is paid for these x hours ($10.25 for an hour).

After taxes, social security, and his health care plan were deducted he earned

10.25x - 0.21(10.25x).

This means that taxes, social security, and his health care plan form 21% (0.21 as decimal) from 10.25x.

Answer: 21%

Find the volume of a cone with a base diameter of 12 m and a height of 10 m.
dexar [7]

Answer:

=376.8 m^{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

V=nr^{2}  \frac{h}{3}  Where V is the volume , r is the radius and h is the perpendicular height .

r = \frac{12}{2} m=6

h = 10m

n=3.14

v= 3.14 * 6*6 *\frac{10}{3}

=376.8 m^{3}

The perimeter of a triangle is 53 feet. One side of the triangle is 12 feet shorter than the second side. The third side is is 4
grandymaker [24]

Let the shortest side be = a, then side b = 2·a and side c = (b + 24)

We are given that a + b + c = 84

Substituting for b and c

a + 2·a + (a + 24) = 84

4·a + 24 = 84

4·a = 84 - 24 = 60

a = 60/4 = 15 feet

b = 2·15 = 30 feet

c = 15 + 24 = 39 feet


sorry if i am wrong

The elevator at the state capital has a maximum weight capacity of 2000 pounds. If there are 3
Korolek [52]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Maximum capacity of the elevator = 2000 pounds

Combined weight of the elevator = 428 pounds

A). Let the possible weights that can be added to the elevator = w pounds

B). Therefore, inequality representing this situation will be,

    428 + w < 2000

C). By solving the given inequality,

    (428 + w) - 428 < 2000 - 428

    w < 1572 pounds

    Now we draw this inequality on a number line.
