Answer:

84 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Find the area of the wall.

The wall is 8 ft high and  16 ft wide

A = LW

A = (16)(8)

A = 128 ft²

Step 2: Find the area of the window, fireplace, and mirror.

Window: The window measures 18 in wide  and 14 ft high

18 in = 1.5 ft

A = LW

A = (14)(1.5)

A = 21 ft²

Fireplace: The fireplace is 5 ft wide and 3 ft high

A = LW

A = (3)(5)

A = 15 ft²

Mirror: The mirror above the fireplace is 4 ft wide and 2 ft high

A = LW

A = (2)(4)

A = 8 ft²

Step 3: Add all the areas of the three objects (window, fireplace, and mirror)

A = 21 + 15 + 8

A = 36 + 8

A = 44 ft²

Step 4: Subtract the total area of the objects from the area of the wall.

A = 128 ft² - 44 ft²

A = 84 ft²

84 sq. ft of the wall has to be covered with paint or wallpaper.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Find the area of wallpaper to be covered by calculating the area of the wall and subtracting the areas of the window, mirror and fireplace from it. All are rectangular in shape with are given by A = length × width

Area of the wall = 8 × 16 = 128 ft²

Area of the window = 18/12 × 14 = 1.5 × 14 = 21 ft² (since 1 ft = 12 in)

Area of the fireplace = 5 × 3 = 15 ft²

Area of the mirror = 4 × 2 = 8 ft²

  • Step 2: Calculate the area to be painted or covered with wallpaper

Area of the wall to be covered with paint or wallpaper = 128 - (21 + 15 + 8)

                              = 128 - 44

                              = 84 ft²

If G(x) = 3x + 1, then G -1(1) is<br> 4<br> 1/3<br> 0
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

0


Step-by-step explanation:

g(x) = 3x + 1 \\\ y = 3x + 1


Changing x to y and y to x:


x = 3y + 1 \\\ 3y = x - 1 \\\ y = \frac{x - 1}{3} \\\ g^{-1}(x) = \frac{x - 1}{3} \\\ g^{- 1} (1) = \frac{1 - 1}{3} \\\ g^{- 1} (1) = 0


I hope I helped you.

solmaris [256]
Yes, the number of words ARE proportional to the number of minutes she types, away to tell is when it says Bella types at a CONSTANT rate of 42 words per minute. This means for every minute 42 words will be added.

How much will have to deposit into an account that pays 5.25% simple interest today, in order to earn $345.45 interest in seven
Ann [662]

To earn $345.45 simple interest in 7 years, you have to invest $940.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Step 1:

Given details are Simple Interest Rate (R) = 5.25%, Simple Interest (SI) = $345.45, Time (T) = 7 years

Step 2:

Use the above details to find principal using the formula for Simple Interest (SI) = PRT/100

⇒ 345.45 = (P × 5.25 × 7)/100

⇒ 34545 = 36.75 P

⇒ P = $940

LMN≅PQR
tresset_1 [31]
<span>LMN≅PQR means that point L is equal to P, point M is equal to Q, and point N is equal to R. All lines are the same.

Point Q has an angle of 72, which means that point M also has an angle of 72.

Now you have two angles to find x. All interior angles of a triangle add up to 180, so you can set up the following equation to find x:

72 + 36 + x = 180

Subtract 36 from both sides.

72 + x = 144

Subtract 72 from both sides.

x = 72

The angle of point L, x, is 72.
