Answer:

$V=81\ \text{feet}^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

A wooden box has a square base

One side of the base is 3 feet

The height of this box is 3 times the length of one side of the base, h = 3(3) = 9 feet.

The volume of the box is given by :

$V=A\times h$

A is area of base

For square base, A = side²

$V=3^2\times 9\\\\=81\ \text{feet}^3$

So, the volume of this box is $81\ \text{feet}^3$

All the sides add like a rectangle with two sides measuring 4 and two measuring 2 so you would add 4+4+2+2=12

A 180 ft long board is cut into 3 pieces. The second piece of

blagie [28]

Answer:

20 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

1st piece = x

2nd piece = 2x

3rd piece = 6x

x+2x+6x=180

9x=180

x=20

so the first piece is 20 feet, the second is 40, and the third is 120.

Find the components of the vertical force Bold Upper FFequals=left angle 0 comma negative 10 right angle0,−10 in the directions

quester [9]

Solution :

Let $v_0$ be the unit vector in the direction parallel to the plane and let $F_1$ be the component of F in the direction of $v_0$ and $F_2$ be the component normal to $v_0$ .

Since, $|v_0| = 1,$

$(v_0)_x=\cos 60^\circ= \frac{1}{2}$

$(v_0)_y=\sin 60^\circ= \frac{\sqrt 3}{2}$

Therefore, $v_0 = \left$

From figure,

$|F_1|= |F| \cos 30^\circ = 10 \times \frac{\sqrt 3}{2} = 5 \sqrt3$

We know that the direction of $F_1$ is opposite of the direction of $v_0$ , so we have

$F_1 = -5\sqrt3 v_0$

$=-5\sqrt3 \left$

$= \left$

The unit vector in the direction normal to the plane, $v_1$ has components :

$(v_1)_x= \cos 30^\circ = \frac{\sqrt3}{2}$

$(v_1)_y= -\sin 30^\circ =- \frac{1}{2}$

Therefore, $v_1=\left< \frac{\sqrt3}{2}, -\frac{1}{2} \right>$

From figure,

$|F_2 | = |F| \sin 30^\circ = 10 \times \frac{1}{2} = 5$

∴ $F_2 = 5v_1 = 5 \left< \frac{\sqrt3}{2}, - \frac{1}{2} \right>$

$=\left$

Therefore,

$F_1+F_2 = \left< -\frac{5\sqrt3}{2}, -\frac{15}{2} \right> + \left< \frac{5 \sqrt3}{2}, -\frac{5}{2} \right>$

$= = F$

Avon Edwards worked 45.5 hours at $5 per hour. He made $100 in tips but no bonuses. Anything over 40 hours is paid time-and-a-ha

posledela

Answer:

1. D

2. B

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Question 1:</u>

We can get Avon's earnings using the equation $W=HR+1.5VR+B+T$

Where W is his earnings

HR is the regular hours (40 hours in this case)

V is overtime hours (hours over 40, 45.5 - 40 = 5.5 hours)

B is bonus (no bonus)

T is tips ( $100 tips, given)

and R is the rate (which is $5 per hour)

<em>Substituting the given info into the equation, we get:</em>

<em> $W=HR+1.5VR+B+T\\W=(40)(5)+1.5(5.5)(5)+0+100\\W=341.25$ </em>

<em>So avon's earnings are $341.25</em>

<em>Answer choice D is right.</em>

<u>Question 2:</u>

The other employee needs to work $x$ hours @ $15 per hour to equate or surpass $428. So we can set up the equation shown below and solve for x:

$(15)(x)=428\\x=\frac{428}{15}\\x=28.53$

Rounded to 1 decimal place, this is about 28.5 hours

Answer choice B is right.
