Damon is designing a new dorm for a university. They are trying to create more of an extended family feel so it is to be a 5200

square foot house with several rooms in it. The city has an ordinance that says that every resident must have 350 square feet of living space. The university has decided that unless 15 students can reside in the house it is not cost effective. In order to calculate the number of students that can live there, Damon divides 5200 by 15. Is he correct?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the new dorm = 5200 square foot

As per ordinance every resident should have the living space for every resident = 350 square feet

As per rule number of residents who can live in this area = \frac{5200}{350} = 14.85

As per rule only 14 students can reside in this space.

Damon is not correct.

He should divide the total space 5200 feet² by space required for every resident 350 feet².

John invests a sum of money in a
nexus9112 [7]

Answer: 0.000007638035

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the formula for compound interest to solve this.

Now, the formula goes thus:

A = P ( 1 + r/n)^nt

Where A is the amount compounded, P is the initial amount I.e the principal, r is the rate in % , t is the time while n is the number of times the interest is compounded per time I.e how many times per year.

From the question, we get the following parameters, A = $1912.41 , P = ? , t = 15 years, r = 2.63% and n = 1 of course.

Now, we substitute these into the formula

1912.41 = P ( 1 + 2.63) ^ 15

1912.41 = P ( 3.63) ^ 15

1912.41 = P ( 250,379,850)

P = 1912.41 ÷ 250,379,850

P = 0.000007638035

Looks pretty funny an answer right?

The radius of a circle is 8 inches. What is the angle of an arc 2π inches long?
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

π/4 radians

Step-by-step explanation:

The arc length formula is s = rФ, where Ф is the central angle (in radians).

Here, r = 8 inches and s = arc length = 2π inches.  We need to find the central angle, Ф.  The formula given above is s = rФ, or, equivalently,

Ф = s/r.

Here, the central angle is Ф = s/r = 2π/8, or π/4 radians.
