Answer:

The original price of the item is $28.

Step-by-step explanation:

So to find the original price, we have to divide the sale price by the result of one minus the discount in percentage form.

So:

First convert 25% to a decimal, 0.25.

OP(original price) = 21 ÷ 1 - 0.25 =

1 - 0.25 = 0.75

21 ÷ 0.75 = 28.

Karina is creating two pyramids with the nets below using construction paper. In both nets, all of the triangular faces of the p
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

144 sq in

Step-by-step explanation:

Face height=9, bases=6 in

#Assume the pyramid has a square base.

First we need to calculate the perpendicular height of the pyramid:

#Pythagorean \ Theorem\\a^2+b^2=c^2\\9^2-(0.5\times 6)^2=h^2\\72=h^2\\h=\sqrt{72} \ in

Now to find the surface area of each pyramid:

A=lw+l\sqrt{(w/2)^2+h^2}+w\sqrt{(l/w)^2+h^2}\\\\\#w=l=6,h=\sqrt{72}\\\\A=6^2+6\sqrt{(6/2)^2+72}+6\sqrt{(6/6)^2+72}\\\\A\approx 144\ sq \ in

Hence amount of construction paper needed to make each pyramid is 144 sq in

A contracting company rents a generator for 6 hours and a heavy duty saw for 6 hours total cost of $48 for another job the compa
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

the hourly rates are $8 and $10 respectively

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

The generator rents for 6 hours and the total cost is $48

And, for another job The generator rents for 4 hours and the total cost is $40

We need to find out the hourly rates

For the first one

= $48 ÷ 6 hours

= $8

For the second one

= $40 ÷ 4 hours

= $10

Hence, the hourly rates are $8 and $10 respectively

Solve each system using a matrix
Serjik [45]

<u>ANSWER </u>


x=\frac{1}{2} and y=\frac{1}{4}



<u>EXPLANATION</u>


Given;

4x-12y=1

and

6x+4y=4

The augmented matrix of the two linear equation is given by;


\left[\begin{array}{ccc}4&-12|&-1\\6\:&\:\:\:4|&4\end{array}\right]


We now perform row operations;

\frac{1}{4}\times R_1 \rightarrow R_1.

This gives us


\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&-3|&\frac{-1}{4}\\6\:&\:\:\:4|&4\end{array}\right]



R_2-6R_1 \rightarrow R_2


\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&-3|&\frac{-1}{4}\\0\:&\:\:\:22|&\frac{11}{2}\end{array}\right]


\frac{1}{22}R _2 \rightarrow R_2


\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&-3|&\frac{-1}{4}\\0\:&\:\:\:1|&\frac{1}{4}\end{array}\right]


R_1+3R_2 \rightarrow R_1


\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0|&\frac{1}{2}\\0\:&\:\:\:1|&\frac{1}{4}\end{array}\right]


Hence x=\frac{1}{2} and y=\frac{1}{4}
