Answer:

Driveway Area = 218 square feet
Garden Area = 230 square feet
Total Area = 448 square feet

See diagram below.

====================================================

Explanation:

Start at the lower left corner of the entire figure. Move 20 ft directly to the right until reach the end of the driveway at the bottom. Now move 10 ft up so you reach the other side of the driveway (the 26 ft side). In the process of moving 10 ft up, mark a new line segment. I've done so in red in the diagram below.

I've also drawn a green box. The red line and green box form a shape of a flag on a flagpole. The pole being 10 ft tall and the green box (flag) is a 6 by 3 rectangle. The 6 is from 26-20 = 6 and the 3 is from 10-7 = 3. Note how I'm subtracting the opposite side values to help figure out the dimensions of this green box.

The 10 ft by 20 ft portion of the driveway is 10*20 = 200 square feet. The green box adds on another 18 sq ft because 6*3 = 18. In all, we have 200+18 = 218 square feet for the driveway.

-------------------

If you want to know the area of the garden, then we first compute the overall area of everything shown. That's 32*14 = 448 square feet. Subtract off the driveway's area to get 448-218 = 230. Therefore, the garden's area is 230 square feet.

The volume of a cylinder can is 1.54 litre and area of base is 77cm^2 Find its height

goblinko [34]

Answer:

The height is 20 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we have to know that the volume formula is V = πr²h and the base area of cylinder is a circle. So we can let πr² be 77 cm² . Then we have to substitute the following values into the formula :

$v = 1.54 \: l$

$v = 1540 \: {cm}^{3}$

$v = \pi \times {r}^{2} \times h$

Let πr² be 77,

Let v be 1540,

$1540 = 77 \times h$

$77h = 1540$

$h = 1540 \div 77$

$h = 20 \: cm$

Amanda earned a score of 940 on a national achievement test that was normally distributed. The mean test score was 850 with a st

snow_lady [41]

<span>In math notation, we've done this: z = (X - μ) / σ = (940 - 850) / 100 = 0.90 where z is the z-score X is Vivian's score (940) µ is the mean (850) σ is the standard deviation (100) As you may know, in a normal distribution it's expected that about 68% of all observations will fall within 1 standard deviation of the mean, 95% will fall within 2 standard deviations, and 99% will fall within 3 standard deviations.
940 lie before the first standard deviation, in which 16.5% is above it
since 940 is 0.9 from the mean and 0.1 from the first standard deviation
so above it is 17.5 % = 0.175 or about 0.18 </span>

Step-by-step explanation:

substitute y=0 into the equation

0=-16x²+153x+98

then use the quadratic formula

a = -16

b= 153

c = 98

Substituting values into the Quadratic equation, you get (Round the values to the nearest hundreth):

x₁= 10.17

x₂= -0.60

NeX [460]

Answer: 17.5

Step-by-step explanation:

7:10 = x:25

times both sides by 25

25(7/10) =x

than solve for x

X = 25 × (7/10)

X = 17.5
