According to the dimensions given, the volume of paper in the recycling bin is of 6800 cubic inches.

<h3>What is the volume of a rectangular prism?</h3>

It is given by the multiplication of the base area by the height, that is:

V = S_bh

In this problem, we have that the measures in square inches and inches, respectively, are given by:

S_b = 400, h = 17

Hence:

V = 400 \times 17 = 6800

The volume of paper in the recycling bin is of 6800 cubic inches.

Maureen has 5 rolls of pennies containing 50 coins each, 3 rolls of nickels containing 40 coins each, 6 rolls of dimes containin
harkovskaia [24]
Answer:
she has $78.5

Explanation:
1- She has 5 rolls of pennies containing 50 coins each.
Total pennies she has = 5*50 = 250 pennies
Now, we will get the amount of pennies she has in dollars as follows:
1 penny ............> 0.01 dollar
250 pennies .....> ??
Amount is dollars = 250*0.01 = $2.5 .............> I

2- She has 3 rolls of nickels containing 40 coins each
Total nickels = 3*40 = 120 nickels
Now, we will get the amount of nickels she has in dollars as follows:
1 nickel ..............> 0.05 dollar
120 nickels .........> ??
Amount in dollars = 120*0.05 = $6 ............> II

3- She has 6 rolls of dimes containing 50 coins each
Total dimes = 6*50 = 300 dimes
Now, we will get the amount of dimes she has in dollars as follows:
1 dime ...........> 0.1 dollar
300 dimes .....> ??
Amount in dollars = $30 ...............> III

4- She has 4 rolls of quarters containing 40 coins each.
Total quarters = 4*40 = 160 quarters
Now, we will get the amount of quarters she has in dollars as follows:
1 quarter ...........> 0.25 dollar
160 quarters ........> ??
Amount in dollars = $40 ..........> IV

5- Final step:
we will add I,II,III and IV to get the total amount of money she has as follows:
Total amount of money = 2.5 + 6 + 30 + 40
Total amount of money = $78.5

Hope this helps :)

What is the equation of the line that passes through the given point and is perpendicular to the given line?
skad [1K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

The equation of a line which passes through the point (1,1) is <em>(y-1) = m1 (x-1)...............(i)</em> {using one point formula}

Also, another equation which is perpendicular to the line is <em>y = 1/5 x + 4/5..........(ii)</em>

Comparing equation (ii) with y= mx+c, we get;

Slope (m2) = 1/5.

Now, As per the condition of perpendicular lines,

m1*m2 = -1

or, m1 * 1/2 = -1

or, m1= -2

Therefore, m1 = -2.

Keeping the value of m1 in equation (i) we get;

y-1 = -2(x-1)

y-1 = -2x+1

or, y+2x-2= 0

Therefore, the required equation is 2x+y-2= 0.

Hope it helps!
