Answer:

Hence, a carpenter can paint a maximum of 7 chairs.

Hence, option A is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

A carpenter has less than 120 min. to spend painting furniture each day.

Today, he has spent 30.5 min. painting a desk.

Now he will paint x chairs, each of which takes 12.5 min.

i.e. he will take a total of 12.5x minutes in painting 'x' chairs.

Also total time spent on painting furniture each day will be equal to time spent on painting a desk and all of the chairs.

Hence,

30.5+12.5x<120 (since the total time he spends on painting is less than 120 mins.)

⇒ 12.5 x<120-30.5

⇒ 12.5 x<89.5

⇒ x<7.16  ( on dividing both side of the inequality with 12.5)

Hence, a carpenter can paint a maximum of 7 chairs.

Most
assume 120 mins

30.5 spent
120=30.5=89.5 left

time/timeperdesk=number of desks
89.5/12.5=7.16

less
7 desks

Answer:

  119.05°

Step-by-step explanation:

In general, the angle is given by ...

  θ = arctan(y/x)

Here, that becomes ...

  θ = arctan(9/-5) ≈ 119.05°

_____

<em>Comment on using a calculator</em>

If you use the ATAN2( ) function of a graphing calculator or spreadsheet, it will give you the angle in the proper quadrant. If you use the arctangent function (tan⁻¹) of a typical scientific calculator, it will give you a 4th-quadrant angle when the ratio is negative. You must recognize that the desired 2nd-quadrant angle is 180° more than that.

__

It may help you to consider looking at the "reference angle." In this geometry, it is the angle between the vector v and the -x axis. The coordinates tell you the lengths of the sides of the triangle vector v forms with the -x axis and a vertical line from that axis to the tip of the vector. Then the trig ratio you're interested in is ...

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent = |y|/|x|

This is the tangent of the reference angle, which will be ...

  θ = arctan(|y| / |x|) = arctan(9/5) ≈ 60.95°

You can see from your diagram that the angle CCW from the +x axis will be the supplement of this value, 180° -60.95° = 119.05°.

Please help i need the answer and how you did it
Arturiano [62]
1. First, do 12 x 8 to work out the area of the rectangle, which is 96ft.
Then, to work out the area of a circle, you use the equation πr² to help you. You would multiply π by the radius², which is 16. Now you have just worked out the area of a circle, but not a semicircle, so you would have to divide your answer by two to get the area of this, which would be 25.13 (rounded to 2 d.p).
To get the area of the whole shape, you just have to add the two totals together.
25.13 + 96 = 121.13ft.
Remember to put the units there, or you can lose marks.

Try your best with the next questions! I have written the formulas for the other shapes to help you work out the answers.

Area of a square = Multiply sides together.
Area of rectangle = Multiply width by length.
Area of a circle = Multiply π by the radius².
Area of a semicircle = Multiply π by the radius², and the divide by two.
Area of a triangle = Multiply the base by the height, and then divide by two.

Really hope this helps!

Answer:

Square

Step-by-step explanation:

It’s a square.  The distance between each of the corners is √8.  Since all four sides are the same and the corners meet at 90°, it’s a square.
