Answer:

The volume is 3/16 cubic units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Length l = 1/2

Width w = 1/2

Height h = 3/4

To determine

Volume = ?

The volume can be determined using the formula

Volume = l × w × h

substitute l = 1/2, w = 1/2, and h = 3/4

Volume = 1/2 × 1/2 × 3/4

Volume = 1/4 × 3/4

Volume = 3/16 cubic units

Therefore, the volume is 3/16 cubic units.

Answer:

3/16

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for Volume is V = L * W * H

The given are L = 1/2, W = 1/2, H = 3/4

Substituting the values -

V = 1/2 * 1/2 * 3/4

= 3/16

= 3/16 divide by the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 3 and 16 to get the lowest term

= 3/16

Therefore, the volume of the box in 3/16.

John J. Parker worked 44 hours this week. He gets time-and-a-half for any hours beyond 40. How many regular pay hours did John w

Leni [432]

The answer you are looking for is 40 hours. they gave you the answer in the statement above when they said he gets time-and-a-half for any hours beyond 40. So he only worked 40 regular pay hours and got 4 hours overtime for time-and-a-half.

A Norman window is a window with a semi-circle on top of regular rectangular window. (See the picture.) What should be the dimen

Vikki [24]

Answer:

bottom side (a) = 3.36 ft

lateral side (b) = 4.68 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to maximize the area of the window, subject to a constraint in the perimeter of the window.

If we defined a as the bottom side, and b as the lateral side, we have the area defined as:

$A=A_r+A_c/2=a\cdot b+\dfrac{\pi r^2}{2}=ab+\dfrac{\pi}{2}\left (\dfrac{a}{2}\right)^2=ab+\dfrac{\pi a^2}{8}$

The restriction is that the perimeter have to be 12 ft at most:

$P=(a+2b)+\dfrac{\pi a}{2}=2b+a+(\dfrac{\pi}{2}) a=2b+(1+\dfrac{\pi}{2})a=12$

We can express b in function of a as:

$2b+(1+\dfrac{\pi}{2})a=12\\\\\\2b=12-(1+\dfrac{\pi}{2})a\\\\\\b=6-\left(\dfrac{1}{2}+\dfrac{\pi}{4}\right)a$

Then, the area become:

$A=ab+\dfrac{\pi a^2}{8}=a(6-\left(\dfrac{1}{2}+\dfrac{\pi}{4}\right)a)+\dfrac{\pi a^2}{8}\\\\\\A=6a-\left(\dfrac{1}{2}+\dfrac{\pi}{4}\right)a^2+\dfrac{\pi a^2}{8}\\\\\\A=6a-\left(\dfrac{1}{2}+\dfrac{\pi}{4}-\dfrac{\pi}{8}\right)a^2\\\\\\A=6a-\left(\dfrac{1}{2}+\dfrac{\pi}{8}\right)a^2$

To maximize the area, we derive and equal to zero:

$\dfrac{dA}{da}=6-2\left(\dfrac{1}{2}+\dfrac{\pi}{8}\right )a=0\\\\\\6-(1-\pi/4)a=0\\\\a=\dfrac{6}{(1+\pi/4)}\approx6/1.78\approx 3.36$

Then, b is:

$b=6-\left(\dfrac{1}{2}+\dfrac{\pi}{4}\right)a\\\\\\b=6-0.393*3.36=6-1.32\\\\b=4.68$

Make b the subject of the formula P=2a+b

Gelneren [198K]

In order to make b the subject of this equation, we must isolate it on the left side. We can do this by following these steps:

$P = 2a+b$

Subtract b from both sides

$P - b = 2a+b-b$

$P-b=2a$

Subtract P from both sides

$P-b-P=2a-P$

$-b=2a-P$

Now, we have isolated b, but it is negative. We can fix this by multiplying both sides of the equation by -1.

$-(-b)=-(2a-P)$

$b=-2a+P$

Which is your final answer.
$b = -2a+P$ .
Hope that helped! =)
