They had to pay $75 just to use the table, before they ever sold a basket.
How many baskets do they have to sell to earn that $75 back ?

Each basket costs them $12 to make, and they sell it for $20.
So every time they sell a basket, they earn (20 - 12) = $8 .

How many times do they have to earn $8 in order to earn back the $75 ?

1 basket . . . . . . 1 x $8 = $  8 . . . . . not enough
2 baskets . . . . . 2 x $8 = $16 . . . . . not enough
3 baskets . . . . . 3 x $8 = $24 . . . . . not enough
4 baskets . . . . . 4 x $8 = $32 . . . . . not enough
5 baskets . . . . . 5 x $8 = $40 . . . . . not enough.
6 baskets . . . . . 6 x $8 = $48 . . . . . not enough
7 baskets . . . . . 7 x $8 = $56 . . . . . not enough

8 baskets . . . . . 8 x $8 = $64 . . . . . not enough

9 baskets . . . . . 9 x $8 = $72 . . . . . ooh so close, but not quite enough

10 baskets . . . . 10 x $8 = $80 . . . That's it ! 
                                                             Finally, they earned back the $75,
                                                             and they're $5 ahead of all of
                                                             their expenses.

What is the volume of the composite figure shown? Use 3.14 for π.
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

25.12

Step-by-step explanation:

the formula of a cone is pi r^2 * h/3

r = radius and h = height

the radius is 2 and the height is 3

and the question says use 3.14 instead of pi so

we have

3.14 * 2^2 * 6/3

2*2 or 2^2 = 4

3.14 * 4 * 6/3

6/3 = 2

3.14 * 4 * 2

4*2 = 8

and 8 * 3.14 is 25.12

Suppose that the height above ground of a person sitting on a Ferris wheel is described by the following.
sdas [7]

Answer:

Person will be 24 metres above the ground after 1.50 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

h(t)=18.8-16.7\cos \left ( \frac{2\pi t}{5} \right )

To find:

time when the person be 24 meters above the ground

Solution:

Put h(t)=24

h(t)=18.8-16.7\cos \left ( \frac{2\pi t}{5} \right )\\24=18.8-16.7\cos \left ( \frac{2\pi t}{5} \right )\\16.7\cos \left ( \frac{2\pi t}{5} \right )=18.8-24\\16.7\cos \left ( \frac{2\pi t}{5} \right )=-5.2\\\cos \left ( \frac{2\pi t}{5} \right )=\frac{-5.2}{16.7}\\\cos \left ( \frac{2\pi t}{5} \right )=-0.3114\\\frac{2\pi t}{5}=1.887\\\frac{2}{5}\times \frac{22}{7}t=1.887\\t=1.887\times \frac{5}{2}\times \frac{7}{22}\\=1.501\\\approx 1.50 \,\,minute

So, the person will be 24 metres above the ground after 1.50 minutes

6 choices for 1st digit
5 choices for 2nd digit (since we used 1 for 1st slot already)
4 for 3rd
3 for 4th
2 for 5th

so the number of numbers is 6*5*4*3*2=720 different numbers
