Answer:

$280

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one

Given data

A mechanic makes $350 /week

20% of his income is deducted for taxes

Required

the mechanic's take-home pay for the week

Step two:

let us find 20% of $350

=20/100*350

= 0.2*350

=$70

Therefore the take-home pay is

= 350-70

= $280

I need help!! Find the area of each shaded segment. Round your answer to the nearest 10th

guajiro [1.7K]

Given:

θ = 60°

Radius = 8 in

To find:

The area of the shaded segment.

Solution:

Vertically opposite angles are congruent.

Angle for the shaded segment = 60°

<u>Area of the sector:</u>

$$A=\pi r^2\times \frac{\theta}{360^\circ}$

$$A=3.14 \times 8^2\times \frac{60^\circ}{360^\circ}$

A = 33.5 in²

Area of the sector = 33.5 in²

<u>Area of triangle:</u>

$$A=\frac{1}{2} bh$

$$A=\frac{1}{2} \times 8\times 8$

A = 32 in²

Area of the triangle = 32 in²

Area of segment = Area of sector - Area of triangle

= 33.5 in² - 32 in²

= 1.5 in²

The area of the shaded segment is 1.5 square inches.

A vertical cylinder is leaking water at a rate of 4m3/sec. If the cylinder has a height of 10m and a radius of 2m, at what rate

Lyrx [107]

Answer:

Therefore the rate change of height is $\frac{1}{\pi}$ m/s.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a vertical cylinder is leaking water at rate of 4 m³/s.

It means the rate change of volume is 4 m³/s.

$\frac{dV}{dt}=4 \ m^3/s$

The radius of the cylinder remains constant with respect to time, but the height of the water label changes with respect to time.

The height of the cylinder be h(say).

The volume of a cylinder is $V=\pi r^2 h$

$=( \pi \times 2^2\times h)\ m^3$

$\therefore V= 4\pi h$

Differentiating with respect to t.

$\frac{dV}{dt}=4\pi \frac{dh}{dt}$

Putting the value $\frac{dV}{dt}$

$\Rightarrow 4\pi \frac{dh}{dt}=4$

$\Rightarrow \frac{dh}{dt}=\frac{4}{4\pi}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{dh}{dt}=\frac{1}{\pi}$

The rate change of height does not depend on the height.

Therefore the rate change of height is $\frac{1}{\pi}$ m/s.

You know that a rope is no more then a hundred feet long. You need to cut the rope into three pieces. The second piece is to be

zzz [600]

Answer:

The maximum length of the second piece is 61.5 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the rope is 100 ft long.

There are three pieces that make up the 100 ft. The first is length x, the second is three times as long as the first, so it would be 3x, and the third is 18ft.

So if we were to write this as an equation it would look something like this: x + 3x + 18 = 100. We can simplify this some more.

4x + 18 = 100

4x = 82

x = 20.5

Now that we know the length or the first piece / x. We can easily find the length of the second (3x) by plugging in 20.5 for x.

We find that the maximum length of the second piece of rope is 61.5 feet.

Good luck, hope that helps!
