Answer:</h2>
17
<h2>
Step-by-step explanation:</h2>
Cost per Packet * Number of Packets + Shipping = Amount to Spend
0.90 * b + 2.50 = A
You can spend a maximum of $18.50
A < 18.50
Rearrange the formula to find b
Number of Packets = Amount to Spend - Shipping / Cost per Packet
18.50 - 2.50 = 16.00 / 0.9 = 17.7...
You can't have 0.7 of a packet so you have to round down to 17.
Now if you put it into the original formula:
0.90 * 17 + 2.50 = 17.80
And 17.80 is less than 18.50.
Answer:
(10*5) - 2(pi(2.5)^2)
Step-by-step explanation:
First we find the area of the rectangle. This is (10*5) since the diameter of the circles is 5 (half of 10) which means that the width of the rectangle is 5, and that the length is 10.
We then find the area of the two circles. One circle can be found using the radius (2.5)(half of the diameter, 5). This gives us pi(2.5)^2 for one circle. We multiply this by two to account for both circles. Then we subtract that from the area of the rectangle to find out how much the area of the plastic is.
This gives us (10*5) - 2(pi(2.5)^2)
Here is my solution to this question worked out on paper:
