Answer:

184 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Width, w = 6 inches

Length, l = 10 inches

Height, h = 2 inches

To obtain how much wrapping paper is needed ; we take the surface area of the box

Surface area = 2(lw + lh + wh)

Surface area = 2((6*10) + (6*2) + (10*2))

Surface area = 2(60 + 12 + 20)

Surface area = 2(92)

Surface area = 184 in²

The amount of wrapping paper needed = 184 in²

All angles in a triangle add up to 180°

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Set Up Equation

2v + 3v + 75 = 180

Step 2: Solve for v

Combine like terms: 5v + 75 = 180
Isolate v term: 5v = 105
Isolate v: v = 21

ycow [4]

Answer:

11,000 units were started into production which were 100 % complete for materials and 89.1 % complete for Conversion Costs.

Step-by-step explanation:

With the help of Equivalent Units of Production we find out how many units were started.

11,000 units were started into production.

Tript Corporation

Physical Units % of Completion Equivalent Units

w.r.t Conversion Costs Mat Conversion C

Units Started 11,000 89.1% 11,000 9,800

Beginning WIP 3000 60% 3000 1800

Total units accounted For 14,000 11600

We compare the Equivalent units and then find the required balance amounts

Carla's plant was 10 2/3 inches tall. Yolanda's was 8 3/4 inches tall.

marin [14]

10 2/3 inches=32/3 inches
8 3/4 inches= 35/4 inches

Find the common denominator, in this case, 12.

128/12 inches is Carla's plant

105/12 inches is Yolanda's plant.

128/12 > 105/12. Therefore, Carla's plant is taller than Yonlanda's

Find the slope of the line that contains the points (6, -2) and (-3, 7)

trapecia [35]

$\bf \begin{array}{ccccccccc}
&&x_1&&y_1&&x_2&&y_2\\
% (a,b)
&&(~ 6 &,& -2~) 
% (c,d)
&&(~-3 &,& 7~)
\end{array}
\\\\\\
% slope = m
slope \implies 
\cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{7-(-2)}{-3-6}\implies \cfrac{7+2}{-3-6}\implies \cfrac{9}{-9}\implies -1$
