The amount of paint required by Madeline will be 0.8325 gallons

<h3>What amount of paint will be required by Madeline?</h3>

Given that

1cm=1.5ft

We will first find the area of the wall

Area of the wall = Area of trapezoidal shape+ Area of triangular shape

Area of trapezoid = \dfrac{a+b}{2} \times h

a= 4cm

b=14cm

h=10cm

putting this values

A=\dfrac{4+14}{2} \times 10

A=90cm^{2}

Area of triangular shape=  \dfrac{1}{2} \times width\times height

width=14cm

height=8cm

putting the values

A=\dfrac{1}{2} \times 14\times 8=58cm^{2}

Total area of the wall= 90+58=148cm^{2}

since we have

1cm=1.5ft

148cm^{2} = 148\times (1.5)^{2} =333 ft^{2}

Now

1gallon = 400ft^{2}

so for  333 ft^{2}  amount of paint in gallons required will be

1ft^{2} =\dfrac{1}{400} gallons

333ft^{2} =\dfrac{333}{400} gallons=0.8325gallons

Thus the amount of paint required by Madeline will be 0.8325 gallons

I need help with someone explaining how to find the range of this! This course didn’t explain anything!
zaharov [31]

Answer:

(-infinity,3), D

Step-by-step explanation:

3 if x is greater than or equal to 1 is nothing. That leaves us with h(x)=2x+1 if x<1. If you substitute in 1 for x, you get 3, but of course that isn't possible, so the range is (-infinity,3), which is D.
