12,900 BTU's are required to cool the room effectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

We must calculate the area of the entire shape to determine the minimum BTU's required to cool the room effectively.

It is made up of a semi-circle a rectangle, and a trapezoid.

Step 2:

The area of a semi-circle =\frac{ \pi r^{2} }{2} .

Here, the diameter is 20 feet so the radius is 10 feet.

The area of the semi-circle =\frac{ \pi r^{2} }{2} =\frac{ (\pi) (10^{2}) }{2} = 157.079 square feet.

The area of a rectangle = (l)(w).

The length of the rectangle is 22 feet and the width is 20 feet.

The area of a rectangle = (l)(w) =(22)(20) = 440 square feet.

The area of a trapezoid =\frac{a+b}{2} (h).

Here a=12, b= 20, h= 3.

The area of a trapezoid =\frac{12+20}{2} (3) = 48 square feet.

Step 3:

The total area of the floor plan =157.079+440+48 = 645.079 square feet.

If 20 BTU's are required for a single square foot,

The number of BTU's for 645.079 square feet = (645.079)(20)=12,901.58 BTU's.

Rounding this off, we get 12,900 BTU's required  to cool the room effectively.

Ms. Martin ordered new pom poms for her cheerleaders. She paid $157.94, which included 6% sales tax. How much were the pom poms
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

$149.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Selling Price = Final Price / 1 + Sales Tax

(reverse tax calculator)

"For Example:

If your total receipt amount was $57.98, and you paid 1.07 percent in sales tax, you’d simply plug those numbers into our calculator to find out that your original price before tax was $57.37. From there, it is a simple subtraction problem to figure out that you paid .61 cents in sales tax."

Ryan, Jessica, and Mark each solved this system of equations. All of their answers are different. Find and explain the mistakes.
Vika [28.1K]
6x - 2y = 10
-2y = -6x + 10...reduce by dividing by -2
y = 3x - 5....slope = 3 and y int = -5

y = 3x + 2 ...slope = 3, y int = 2

These lines are parallel. Parallel lines will have the same slope, but different y int's. There is no solution to this because ur lines never intersect.

Mark's answer is correct

10. During the hockey season, Elena
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If I remember expanded form is putting all number in terms of being times 10 to a power.  starting with the ones place it's x10^0 which of course is just 1, so you don't need to include the x10 at all.

now, moving one either way  that 0 either  get 1 added to it or subtracted.  So in the 10s place it becomes x10^1 and the tenths place becomes x10^-1.  Similarly the hundreds place and hundreths place will have x10^2 and x10^-2 respectively.  So keep this pattern going to find each place of the number.  Can you list out what places are displayed in 5.625?

I will get you started, but let me know if you don't quite get it.  

5 + 6*10^-1 + ...

Can you figure out the rest?
