With her new company, Annika has a two-year assignment living in a large city. The company will reimburse most of her expenses.
Annika is using the Quantitative Reasoning Process to build a budget. Calculate Annika's estimated living expenses for the next two years using the following: Rent: $1,200 per month, Gym membership: $400 per year with a monthly fee of $35, Renters' insurance: $75 every 6 months, Groceries: $390 per month, and Eating out & entertaining: $250 per week. Assume 52 weeks in 1 year and 12 months in 1 year. (Round your answer to the nearest whole dollar)
The product of side length and altitude is area. The area remains the same regardless of how you measure it.
From the first side and altitude, .. area = side*altitude = (4.2 cm)*(3.6 cm) = 15.12 cm^2 From the second side and altitude .. area = side*altitude .. 15.12 cm^2 = side*(2.4 cm) .. side = (15.12 cm^2)/(2.4 cm) = 6.3 cm
The perimeter is the sum of the measures of all sides. Opposite sides are of equal measure. .. perimeter = 2*(4.2 cm +6.3 cm) = 21.0 cm
