The answers are 1) D. 43 items and 2) B. 58 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1; An experienced cashier takes a time of 2 seconds per item and another 40 seconds for processing the customer's payment. So if it took 2 minutes 6 seconds which equals ( 2× 60 ) + 6 = 126 seconds for a customer. Out of these 126 seconds, the last 40 seconds were to process the customer's payment so 126 seconds - 40 seconds = 86 seconds. So it took 86 seconds to scan the items and as it takes 2 seconds per item we divide 86 by 2 to get the number of items. So 86 / 2 = 43 items which is option D.

Step 2; Anna brought 31 items and due to some glitch, the total time took 2 minutes. So for 31 items, it took the cashier 31 × 2 = 62 seconds, 1 minute 2 seconds. So out of the 2 minutes, 1 minute 2 seconds were used to scan the items. So the remaining time was 2 minutes (120 seconds) - 1 minute 2 seconds (62 seconds) = 58 seconds which was the processing time. So option B is the answer.

Answer:

side c = 150 feet of flowers

Area = 5400 feet squared

concert question:

The converse of the Pythagorean theorem can help you determine whether the roped off area is in the shape of a right triangle because you use the side lengths of each square and enter them into the equation, and if the equation is true, then it is a right triangle

Concession stand question:

The school banner can fit across the length of the concession stand

the following information is missing

The length if the sides: c is 50 feet long, b is 40 foot long, and a is 30-foot long.

The distance between the two red stars of the picture makes the hypotenuse of a right triangle, where two sides of length a (30 ft) are the legs. From Pythagorean theorem, diagonal of square A is:

diagonal² = 30² + 30²

diagonal = √1800  = 42.43 ft

which is longer than the banner.

Blueprint question:

No, diagonal of square C is 70.71ft

Answer:

1,145,375 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

Like with an earlier question you had, there is a chunk missing. If that chunk was filled in, this would be a 205 * 70 * 85 rectangular prism.

205 * 70 * 85

17,425 * 70

1,219,750

The cut out chunk is a 25 * 70 * 85 triangular prism.

1/2 (25 * 70 * 85)

1/2(2,125 * 70)

1/2(148,750)

74,375

Now that we know what the cut-out chunk is, subtract that from the first value we got.

1,219,750 -74,375

1,145,375 cm³

The volume of the Canadian Post mailbox is 1,145,375 cm³.
