The cost per box of cookies is $3.75

The total amount Hannah raised from the sales of cookies is $52.50

The total amount Mallory raised from the sales of cookies and donations is $88.50

In order to determine the cost per box of cookies, take the following steps:

The first step is to determine the total sum of the boxes sold by Hannah and Mallory

Sum of the boxes sold = 14 + 22 = 36 boxes

36 boxes were sold by Hannah and Mallory

The second step is to determine the total cost of the 36 boxes sold.

Total cost of 36 boxes = total amount raised - donation

$141 - $6 = $135

The third step is to determine the total cost of each box

cost of one box = total cost of 36 boxes / total number of boxes

135 / 36 = $3.75

The total amount Hannah raised = cost per box x number of boxes she sold

14 x $3.75 = $52.50

The total amount Mallory raised = amount raised from the sale of cookies + donation

amount raised from sales = cost per box x number of boxes she sold

22 x $3.75 = $82.50

Total amount = $82.50 + $6 = $88.50

In one area, the lowest angle of elevation of the sun in winter is 27.5°. Find the minimum distance x that a plant needing full
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

The minimum distance x that a plant needing full sun can be placed from a fence that is 5 feet high is 4.435 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have the lowest angle of elevation of the sun given as 27.5° and the height of the fence is 5 feet.

We will then find the position to place the plant where the suns rays can get to the base of the plant

Note that the fence is in between the sun and the plant, therefore we have

Height of fence = 5 ft.

Angle of location x from the fence = lowest angle of elevation of the sun, θ

This forms a right angled triangle with the fence as the height and the location of the plant as the base

Therefore, the length of the base is given as

Height × cos θ

= 5 ft × cos 27.5° = 4.435 ft

The plant should be placed at a location x = 4.435 ft from the fence.
