Answer: (1)  $847.85 ,  (2) $141.31

Step-by-step explanation:

House rent amount                                  =   $678.28

Tax rate of 15% of the rent                       = 15/100 x 678.28

                                                                   =  $101.742

% charged for late payments                   = 10% of 678.28

                                                                   = 10/100 x 678.28

                                                                   = $67.828

(1)   Now , the total amount due payable by the six sorority sisters

                                                                   = $678.28 + $101.742 + $67.828

                                                                   = $847.85.

The question is in two parts

(2)  The amount each of the six sorority sisters should contribute if they are paying equal amount                                = $847.85

                                                                       ----------

                                                                            6

                                                                   = $141.31

The petronas towers in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, are 452 meters tall. A woman who is 1.75 meters tall stands 120 meters from the b
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

75.1^{\circ}

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem, we have:

H = 452 m is the height of the Petronas tower

h = 1.75 m is the height of the woman

d = 120 m is the distance between the woman and the base of the tower

First of all, we notice that we want to find the angle of elevation between the woman's hat the top of the tower; this means that we have consider the difference between the height of the tower and the height of the woman, so

H' = H-h = 452-1.75=450.25 m

Now we notice that d and H' are the two sides of a right triangle, in which the angle of elevation is \theta. Therefore, we can write the following relationship:

tan \theta = \frac{H'}{d}

since

H' represents the side of the triangle opposite to \theta

d represents the side of the triangle adjacent to \theta

Solving the equation for \theta, we find the angle of elevation:

\theta = tan^{-1}(\frac{H'}{d})=tan^{-1}(\frac{450.25}{120})=75.1^{\circ}

A rectangular lawn measures 80 ft by 120 ft. Part of the lawn is torn up to install a sidewalk of uniform width around it. The a
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

Both answers will give an area of 2400 ft2

but with x=60 we have lawn dimensions -60 ft by -40 ft so this is out

 

x = 10 ft width for the sidewalk

 

Check:  New lawn dimensions

(80-2x)(60-2x) = 60(40) = 2400 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Draw a diagram:

We have a rectangle inside a rectangle.

 

The larger outside rectangle is the original lawn:  80ft by 60 ft with area 4800 ft2

 

The smaller inside rectangle is (80-2x)by(60-2x) where x is width of the new sidewalk.

 

Area of new lawn is 2400 ft^2

 

(80-2x)(60-2x) = 2400

4800 - 160x - 120x + 4x2 = 2400

4x2 - 280x + 2400 = 0

Factor out a 4

x2 - 70x + 600 = 0

(x-60)(x-10) = 0

 

x = 60 ft or x = 10 ft
