A salesman receives a fixed salary of $500 per week. In addition he is paid 12% of all sales over $1000. Write the formula that

describes how his weekly salary, s, depends on his weekly revenue, r. (The revenue is the amount of money he collects by selling the goods.)

Mrs. Austin teaches forty-eight students. One-third of her students are out sick with the flu. How many students are sick?

Aneli [31]

16 of the students are sick. How I got this was, divide 48 by 3 and you get 16 therefore 1/3 of 48 is 16.

At a sale this week, a suit is being sold for $296.40. This is a 62% discount from the original price. What was the original pri

Soloha48 [4]

Suppose the original price to be x.
62%x=296.4
Divide both sides by 62% to get x=478, which is the original price.

What is the volume of the composite figure? Explain your work. A complete answer should include how you broke up the figure, whi

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

$15,000\:\mathrm{mm^3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The composite figure consists of a square prism and a trapezoidal prism. By adding the volume of each, we obtain the volume of the composite figure.

The volume of the square prism is given by $V=s^2\cdot h$ , where $s$ is the base length and $h$ is the height. Substituting given values, we have: $V=14^2\cdot 30=196\cdot 30=5,880\:\mathrm{mm^3}$

The volume of a trapezoidal prism is given by $V=\frac{b_1+b_2}{2}\cdot l\cdot h$ , where $b_1$ and $b_2$ are bases of the trapezoid, $l$ is the length of the height of the trapezoid and $h$ is the height. This may look very confusing, but to break it down, we're finding the area of the trapezoid (base) and multiplying it by the height. The area of a trapezoid is given by the average of the bases ( $\frac{b_1+b_2}{2}$ ) multiplied by the trapezoid's height ( $l$ ).

Substituting given values, we get:

$V=\frac{14+24}{2}\cdot (30-14)\cdot 30,\\V=19\cdot 16\cdot 30=9,120\:\mathrm{mm^3}}$

Therefore, the total volume of the composite figure is $5,880+9,120=\boxed{15,000\:\mathrm{mm^3}}$ (ah, perfect)

Alternatively, we can break the figure into a larger square prism and a triangular prism to verify the same answer:

$V=30^2\cdot 14+\frac{1}{2}\cdot10\cdot 16\cdot 30=\boxed{15,000\:\mathrm{mm^3}}\checkmark$
