Answer:

he makes $8 an hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Since he makes $480 over 4 weeks you divide that by 4 and you should get 120. So that means he makes $120 in one week and since he works 15 hours a week you divide 120 by 15 and you should get 8

A brand of clay brick tiles has the dimensions 3 5 8 by 7 5 8 by 1 2 inch. These thin bricks are commonly used for floors. Estim

raketka [301]

Answer: The cost to tile the floor is $318.24.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Dimensions of floor is 12 by 17 foot.

So, Area of floor would be

$12\times 17\\\\=204\ sq.\ foot$

As we know that 1 foot = 12 inch

So, Area of floor would be

$204\times (12)^2\\\\=204\times 144\\\\=29376\ sq.\ foot$

Dimension of brick tiles is given by

$3\dfrac{5}{8}\ by\ 7\dfrac{5}{8}\ by\ \dfrac{1}{2}$

So, Area of brick tiles is given by

$2(lb+bh+lh)\\\\=2(\dfrac{29}{8}\times \dfrac{61}{8}+\dfrac{61}{8}\times \dfrac{1}{2}+\dfrac{29}{8}\times \dfrac{1}{2})\\\\=2(\dfrac{1769}{64}+\dfrac{61}{16}+\dfrac{29}{16})\\\\=2\times \dfrac{1769+244+116}{64}\\\\=\dfrac{2129}{32}$

So, Number of clay brick would be

$29376\div \dfrac{2129}{32}\\\\=29376\times \dfrac{32}{2129}\\\\=\dfrac{29376\times 32}{2129}\\\\=441.53\\\\\approx 442$

cost of each clay brick = $0.72

So, Total cost of flooring would be

$442\times 0.72\\\\=\$318.24$

Hence, The cost to tile the floor is $318.24.

Can some one help me answer this

Andrews [41]

Yes, notice for every 10 degrees in Celsius you have 18 degrees Fahrenheit.

32 is the freezing point of water in F, and 0 is the freezing point of water in C.

So it is starting at freezing point, every time you add 10 in C you also add 18 to F.

They show the same temperature just on different scales.

To qualify for the championship a runner must complete the race in less than 55 minutes ....... Use "t" to represent the time in

Svet_ta [14]

The inequality is t < 55

Solution:

Given that, To qualify for the championship a runner must complete the race in less than 55 minutes

Let "t" represent the time in minutes of a runner who qualifies for the championship

Here it is given that the value of t is less than 55 minutes

Therefore, "t" must be less than 55, so that the runner qualifies the championship

This is represented by inequality:

$t$

The above inequality means, that time taken to complete the race must be less than 55 for a runner to qualify

Hence the required inequality is t < 55
