Answer:

Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

Barrel (storage container) is enclosed in a small square fence.

Since, barrel is touching the surfaces from four sides of the cylindrical barrel.

Length of each side of the square fence = Diameter of the barrel

                                                                   = 2(radius of the barrel)

                                                                   = 2(1.5)

                                                                   = 3 feet

Perimeter of a square = 4(Side of a square)

                                     = 4(3)

                                     = 12 feet

Therefore, Option C will be the correct option.

A sales person at a car dealership earns a monthly salary of $2400 and $250 for each vehicle sold
Mrrafil [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

8 vehicle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Monthly salary of salesperson is $2400

          Incentive of salesperson is $250 per vehicle sold.

First, lets compute income to earned apart from salary.

∴ Deduct salary from the target amount

\$ 4400-\$ 2400= \$ 2000$4400−$2400=$2000

∴ 2000 need to be earned only through incentive, which is2000needtobeearnedonlythroughincentive,whichis250 per vehicle sold.

Now, solving to get number vehicles to be sold to earn $2000 as incentive.

Number of vehicle= \frac{2000}{250}= 8\ vehicles2502000=8 vehicles

∴ 8 vehicles need to be sold by salesperson to get total earning as $4400

Use the shell method to find the volume of the solid generated by revolving the region bounded by the line y=x+2 and the parabol
Viktor [21]

Answer:

8 π or

25.13 unit^3 to the nearest hundredth.

Step-by-step explanation:

(A)

The height of the shell is (2 + x - x^2) and  the radius is (2 - x).

V = 2π ∫(2 - x)(x + 2 - x^2) dx  between the limits x = 0 and x = 2.

=  2π ∫ (2x + 4 - 2x^2 - x^2 - 2x + x^3) dx

 = 2π ∫ (x^3 - 3x^2 + 4 ) dx

= 2π [ x^4/4 - x^3 + 4x ]  between x = 0 and x = 2

= 2 π [4 - 8 + 8 )

= 2 π * 4

= 8π

= 25.13 unit^3 to the nearest hundredth.
