From the setup of the problem, the "length of the top of the bookcase, measured along the attic ceiling" will be the hypotenuse of a right triangle, the length "AB". We have both the angle between AB and AC and the length of AC (3.24 meters), so we can use trigonometric identities.

The cosine of the 40 degree angle between AB and AC is equivalent to the length of AC divided by the length of AB. Equivalently, we have:

cos(40) = \frac{3.24}{h}

where "h", the hypotenuse, is the length we want. Rearranging the formula to solve for h we have that

$h = \frac{3.24}{cos(40)}$

which is 4.2295... meters. Converting to centimeters (multiplying by 100) we have that h = 422.95... centimeters, or if we round the value, h = 423 centimeters.

Phantasy [73]
The total cost, C, is the sum of the cost to produce the centerpieces and the fixed cost. The equation for C is C = 8n + 500.

The total revenue, R, of Julio's floral business is the product of the cost per centerpiece and the number of centerpieces sold. The equation for R is R = 19.50n.

Yuri [45]

Answer:

x= 44 ounces y = 66 ounces  

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribution would be an increase to find 80% salt.

Where we use 4/5 = 80 but use here 4/5.

We find 19/20 but just say 95 for solution B =

Let x = the number of ounces of Solution A

Let y = the number of ounces of Solution B

x + y = 110        y = 110 - x

(70x + 95y) = 4/5 x 110

70x + 95y = 88    

70x + 95 y = 88

70x + 95 (88 - x) = 8800 make units equal or for start convert decimalization = same units as 2nd multiplied value.

70x + 8360 - 88x = 8800

-10x - 8360 - 8800 = y

-10x = 440

x = 44 ounces

y = 110- 44

y =  66 ounces

What is the interquartile range of the data set? Enter the answer in the box. Key: 1|5 means 15
Aneli [31]
First of all we have to arrange the data in ascending order as shown below:

28, 40, 43, 43, 45, 50, 50

Total number of values = 7

Since the number of values is odd, the median will be the middle value i.e. 4th value which is 43. Median divides the data in two halves:

1st Half = 28, 40, 43
2nd Half = 45, 50, 50

Q1 or the First Quartile is the middle value of the lower or 1st half which is 40.
Q3 or the Third Quartile is the middle value of the upper or second half, which is 50.

IQR or the Inter Quartile Range is the difference of Q3 and Q1.

So, IQR= Q3 – Q1 = 50 – 40 = 10

Thus, IQR for the given data is 10
