Answer:

28.4in³

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of the square based pyramid = L²H/3 where;

L is the length of a side of the square base

H is the height of the prism

Given

Perimeter of the base = 13.4 in

Height of the pyramid = 7.6in

First we need to get the length of the square base

Perimeter of a square = 4L

13.4 = 4L

L = 13.4/4

L = 3.35 in

Next is to find the required volume of the pyramid

V = L²H/3

V =  3.35²(7.6)/3

V = 85.291/3

V =  28.4 in³

Hence the volume of the pyramid to nearest tenth is 28.4in³

The cost of, y, of a large pizza with x topping from pats pizzeria can be modeled by a linear function. A large pizza with no to
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

The cost would be 22.75

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the cost of each topping, we simply take the excess cost and divide it by the number of toppings. To find the excess cost, take the new cost and subtract the original cost.

17.50 - 14.00 = 3.50

Now divide that by the amount of toppings.

3.50/2 = 1.75

Now we can multiply the new number of toppings by that amount and add the cost of the pizza.

5(1.75) + 14.00

8.75 + 14.00

22.75

Using the normal distribution, it is found that there was a 0.9579 = 95.79% probability of a month having a PCE between $575 and $790.

<h3>Normal Probability Distribution</h3>

The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

  • The z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is above or below the mean.
  • Looking at the z-score table, the p-value associated with this z-score is found, which is the percentile of X.

The mean and the standard deviation are given, respectively, by:

\mu = 700, \sigma = 50.

The probability of a month having a PCE between $575 and $790 is the <u>p-value of Z when X = 790 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 575</u>, hence:

X = 790:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{790 - 700}{50}

Z = 1.8

Z = 1.8 has a p-value of 0.9641.

X = 575:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{575 - 700}{50}

Z = -2.5

Z = -2.5 has a p-value of 0.0062.

0.9641 - 0.0062 = 0.9579.

0.9579 = 95.79% probability of a month having a PCE between $575 and $790.

Amy is eight years older than twice her cousin Alicia’s age. The sum of their ages is less than 32. Let x represent Alicia's age
horsena [70]
Ok, so amy is 8 years older than twice alica's age
if amy=y and alica=x
y=8+2x

and sum is less than 32
y+x<32

we can subsitute 8+2x for y in other equation
8+2x+x<32
8+3x<32
minus 8 both sides
3x<24
divide both sides by 3
x<8


the inequality is x<8

The average income, I, in dollars, of a lawyer with an age of x years is modeled with the following function:
Alinara [238K]
The answer is 37 years old.

I = -425x² + 45500x -650000
I = 450000

-425x² + 45500x -650000 = 450000
-425x² + 45500x - 650000 - 450000 = 0
-425x² + 45500x - 1100000 = 0

Divide all factors by 25:
- 17x² + 1820x - 44000 = 0

This is quadratic equation (ax² + bx + c = 0)
x_{1,2} = \frac{-b+/- \sqrt{ b^{2}-4ac } }{2a} = \frac{-1820+/- \sqrt{ 1820^{2}-4*(-17)*(-44000) } }{2*(-17)} = \\  \\ = \frac{-1820+/- \sqrt{3312400-2992000 } }{-34} = \frac{-1820+/- \sqrt{320400} }{-34} =\frac{-1820+/- 566}{-34}  \\  \\ &#10;x_1= \frac{-1820+ 566}{-34}= -37 \\  \\ &#10;x_2 = \frac{-1820- 566}{-34}=70

Since, the youngest age is needed, the correct answer is x = 37

One of your employees is bidding on a carpet installation job. They estimate that it will take 3 hours to install 12 square yard
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

No, the bid is not correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

One of your employees is bidding on a carpet installation job.

They estimate that it will take 3 hours to install 12 square yards of carpeting.

we know that 1 square yard= 9 square foot.

12 square yard= 12×9 square foot=108 square foot

i.e. it takes 3 hours to carpet 108 square foot.

Hence time taken to carpet 1 square foot= \dfrac{3}{108} hour

Now the dimension of room is:

11' 6"× 12' 9" i.e. we convert both the units to foot as:

1 foot= 12 inch

11'6"=11+(6/12)=11.5  foot.

and 12'9"=12+(9/12)=12.75 foot.

Hence, dimension of room=11.5 foot×12.75 foot

Hence area of room=11.5×12.75=146.625 square foot.

Time to carpet 146.625 square foot=

\dfrac{3}{108}\times 146.625 hour

=4.0729 hour

But it is given that it takes 12.3 hours to install the carpet.

Hence, the calculations were wrong.
