The pints of paint that Mike needs to buy in order to paint 4 boxes is 9 pints.



How many pints is needed?


The first step is determine the total surface area of a box.


Total surface area of a cuboid = 2 (lw + wh + lh)


where:
l = length
w = width
h = height


2 x[ (5 x 9/2) + (9/2 x 7/2) + (5 x 7/2) ]
2 x ( 45/2 + 63/4 + 35/2) = 111.5ft


The second step is to determine the total surface area of 4 boxes:


111.5 x 4 = 446


Now, divide 446 by 50


446 / 50 = 9 pints

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The question contains typos as I believe the boxes should be 5x4.2x3.2 in dimensions instead.

Assuming that and all 6 faces of each storage boxes will be painted, the surface area of each box is:

= (5*4.2*2) + (4.2*3.2*2) + (3.2*5*2)

= 100.88 square feet

4 boxes will have a total surface area of

100.88*4

= 403.52 square feet

Each pint of paint covers 50 square feet so a total of

403.52/50 = 8.07 or

9 pints is needed.

Marie has a small copy of Rene margrittes famous painting. The Schoolmasters. Her copy has dimensions of 2 inches by 1.5 inches. The scale of her copy is 1 inch:40 cm What is the dimensions of the original painting?


Every 1 inch on her copy is the same as 40 cm on the original. 
You just have to multiply by 40 and convert to centimetres.

2 x 40 = 80
1.5 x 40 = 60

So the original painting is:
80cm by 60cm

In a survey, 600 adults in a certain country were asked how many hours they worked in the
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

C. Correct

Step-by-step explanation:

The interpretation of a confidence interval of x% is that we are x% that this interval contains the mean of the population.

So, for example, the interpretation of a confidence interval of 95% is that we are 95% that this interval contains the mean of the population.

In this problem, we have that:

Based on the results, a 95% confidence interval for mean number of hours worked was lower bound: 41.5 and upper bound: 45.6.

Also, the following affiration:

(A) There is a 95% chance the mean number of hours worked by adults in this country in the previous week was between 41.5 hours and 45.6 hours.

This is correct

So, the answer is:

C. Correct

What you need to know for this case is that the sum of the internal angles of a triangle is 180 °
 We then have the following equation that is given by:
 (2x) + (3x) + (4x) = 180
 Clearing x we have:
 9x = 180
 x = 180/9
 x = 20
 Therefore we have:
 m∠A = (40) °
 m∠B = (60) °
 m∠C = (80) °
 Answer:
 B) m∠B = 60 °

valina [46]

Answer:

-26 + 4/5d

Step-by-step explanation:

-2/5 ( 15 - 2d + 50)

= -2/5 ( 65 - 2d)

= -2/5 * 65 - (-2/5) * 2d

= -26 - (-4/5d)

= -26 + 4/5d
