Answer:

  insulation cost: $1730

Step-by-step explanation:

The area to be covered is 36 ft by 54 ft, so is ...

  (36 ft)(54 ft) = 1944 ft^2

At a cost of $0.89 per square foot, the cost of the insulation is ...

  (1944 ft^2)($0.89/ft^2) = $1730.16

To the nearest dollar the cost of the insulation will be $1730.

__

The cost of insulation is given. The question asks for the cost of installation. Not enough information is provided to answer that question.

The volume of a sphere is 972(pi)ft3.
pav-90 [236]

Here are some simple equations that can be a life saver with this stuff :

vol of a sphere =

v = \frac{3}{4} \pi \: {r}^{3}

Circumference =

2 \times \pi \times r

sorry this might not be very helpful. I haven't don't this since last year. You basically have to work backwards. so plug in 972 for V and then do (3/4)×3.14.

then take the answer u got for ^^ and divide it by 2? not sure.

The length of a rectangle is eight more than twice its width. The perimeter is 96 feet. Find the dimensions of the rectangle
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

The width  of the rectangle is 14'8",  and the length is 33'4"

Step-by-step explanation:

We're given two pieces of information:

The length is eight more than twice the width:

l = 2w + 4

The perimeter is 96 feet:

p = 96

We also need to apply one more piece of information that is not provided here, and that is the relationship between the perimeter of a rectangle, and it's length and width:

p = 2l + 2w

We can solve for w by plugging the other two values into the last:

p = 2w + 2l\\96 = 2w + 2(2w + 4)\\96 = 2w + 4w + 8\\88 = 6w\\3w = 44\\w = \frac{44}{3}\\w = 14\frac{2}{3}

Now we can find the length by plugging w into the first equation:

l = 2w + 4\\l = 2(14\frac{2}{3}) + 4\\l = 29\frac{1}{3} + 4\\l = 33\frac{1}{3}

One third of  a foot is four inches, so the width is 14'8" and the length is 33'4"

To make sure our answer is correct, we should plug those numbers back into the area equation and see if we're right:

p = 2l + 2w\\p = 2(33\frac{1}{3}) + 2(14\frac{2}{3})\\p = 66\frac{2}{3} + 29\frac{1}{3}\\p = 96

So we know our answer's correct

If f(x)= 5x + 40, what is f(x) when x = -5?
kap26 [50]

Answer:

f(x) = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

"If f(x)= 5x + 40, what is f(x) when x = -5?"

Substitute x for -5:

f(x) = 5x + 40

f(x) = 5(-5) + 40

f(x) = -25 + 40

f(x) = 15

zlopas [31]

Answer:

x=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

1-7x-7=15

We move all terms to the left:

1-7x-7-(15)=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-7x-21=0

We move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right

-7x=21

x=21/-7

x=-3
