the area of a trapezoid is 21 inches, one of its bases is 8 inches and its height is 3 inches. What is the length of the last base?

Answer:

C: 119 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Slant height; L = 5 in

Base area; B = 49 in²

Since it's a square pyramid, the base portion has a square shape.

Thus, area of base = x²

Where x is a side of the square.

Thus;

x² = 49

x = √49

x = 7

Perimeter of base = 7 × 4 = 28 in

Area of pyramid = ½PL + B

Plugging in the relevant values;

Area of pyramid = (½ × 28 × 5) + 49

Area of pyramid = 119 in²

=============================================================

Explanation:

1/2 = 4/8 after multiplying top and bottom by 8

So the mixed number 7  1/2 is the same as 7  4/8

We can convert to an improper fraction like so

7  4/8

7 + 4/8

7*(8/8) + 4/8

56/8 + 4/8

(56+4)/8

60/8

Notice how dividing 60 over 8 leads to 7 remainder 4. Think of it like having 60 cookies and you want to share them amongst 8 friends. Each friend gets 7 whole cookies (7*8 = 56 taken so far) and then we have 60-56 = 4 left over as the remainder.

Through similar steps, you should find that the mixed number 1  7/8 converts to the improper fraction 15/8.

-----------------------------

To rephrase the problem with improper fractions would be to say:

"The electrician needs to buy 60/8 feet of wire. There are 15/8 feet of wire in each spool. How many spools should the electrician buy?"

Let x be the answer to that question.

We multiply the number of spools (x) by the amount of feet of wire per spool (15/8) to get the expression (15/8)x

Set this equal to the target 60/8 and solve for x

(15/8)x = 60/8

15x = 60 .... multiply both sides by 8 to clear out the fractions

x = 60/15

x = 4

The electrician needs to buy exactly 4 spools

-----------------------------

A different approach could have us convert each mixed number into decimal form

7  1/2 = 7 + 1/2 = 7 + 0.5 = 7.5

1  7/8 = 1 + 7/8 = 1 + 0.875 = 1.875

So the electrician needs to buy 7.5 ft total and each spool has 1.875 ft of wire.

Using the same idea as before, we would then have,

1.875x = 7.5

x = (7.5)/(1.875)

x = 4

Answer:  1 unit

Explanation:

The diameters are 6 and 8, which cut in half to 3 and 4 respectively.

The difference in these radii values is 4-3 = 1.

This is the distance from one circle's edge to the other circle's edge, such that we're on the same line that goes through the center of the circles. This is the gap width or ring width so to speak.

Answer:

$290

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that 1 out of 5 buyers change to a more expensive sofa than the one in the sale advertisement.

Now we are told that the advertised sofa is $250 and the more expensive sofa is $450.

Thus;

P(x) for expensive sofa = 1/5

P(x) for sofa in sale advertisement = 4/5

Thus, expected value is;

E(X) = (1/5)450 + (4/5)250

E(x) = 90 + 200

E(x) = $290

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of advertised sofa = [tex]\$250[/tex]

Cost of more expensive sofa = [tex]\$450[/tex]

So, the average cost of sofa,

[tex]E(x) = (450*\frac{1}{5})+ (250*\frac{4}{5})\\\\E(x) = 90 + 200\\\\E(x) = 290[/tex]

Hence,

The average cost of a sofa = [tex]\$290[/tex]

Answer:

(a): x is 3 and ky is -1

(b): k is -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let: 3x + ky = 8 be equation (a)

x - 2 ky = 5 be equation (b)

Then multiply equation (a) by 2:

→ 6x + 2ky = 16, let it be equation (c)

Then equation (c) + equation (b):

[tex] { \sf{(6 + 1)x + (2 - 2)ky = (16 + 5)}} \\ { \sf{7x = 21}} \\ { \sf{x = 3}}[/tex]

Then ky :

[tex]{ \sf{2ky = 3 - 5}} \\ { \sf{ky = - 1}}[/tex]

[tex]{ \bf{y = \frac{1}{2} }} \\ { \sf{ky = - 1}} \\ { \sf{k = - 2}}[/tex]

Simultaneous equations are used to represent a system of related equations.

The value of k when [tex]y = \frac 12[/tex] is -2

Given that:

[tex]3x + ky = 8[/tex]

[tex]x - 2ky = 5[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac 12[/tex]

Substitute [tex]y = \frac 12[/tex] in both equations

[tex]3x + ky = 8[/tex]

[tex]3x + k \times \frac 12 = 8[/tex]

[tex]3x + \frac k2 = 8[/tex]

[tex]x - 2ky = 5[/tex]

[tex]x - 2k \times \frac 12 = 5[/tex]

[tex]x - k = 5[/tex]

Make x the subject in [tex]x - k = 5[/tex]

[tex]x = 5 + k[/tex]

Substitute [tex]x = 5 + k[/tex] in [tex]3x + \frac k2 = 8[/tex]

[tex]3(5 + k) + \frac k2 = 8[/tex]

Open bracket

[tex]15 + 3k + \frac k2 = 8[/tex]

Multiply through by 2

[tex]30 + 6k + k = 16[/tex]

[tex]30 + 7k = 16[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]7k = 16 - 30[/tex]

[tex]7k = - 14[/tex]

Divide both sides by 7

[tex]k = -2[/tex]

Hence, the value of constant k is -2.

The inequality that relates the number of hours to the weekly sales is:

[tex]450 + 0.20x \ge 35y[/tex]

The complete question implies that we define an inequality that represents the relationship between the number of hours worked in a week and the weekly sales

We make use of the following representation:

[tex]x \to[/tex] weekly sales from cars.

[tex]y \to[/tex] hours worked in a week

His weekly salary is then calculated as:

Salary (S) = Earnings per week + Commission * Sales from car

So, we have:

[tex]S = 450 + 20\% * x[/tex]

Express percentage as decimal

[tex]S = 450 + 0.20* x[/tex]

[tex]S = 450 + 0.20x[/tex]

Assume he works for y hours in a week.

His hourly rate is:

[tex]Hourly = \frac{S}{y}[/tex] --- i.e. weekly salary divided by number of hours

[tex]Hourly = \frac{450 + 0.20x}{y}[/tex]

For this rate to be at least [tex]\$35[/tex], the following condition must be true

[tex]Hourly \ge 35[/tex] --- i.e. is hourly rate must be greater than or equal 35

So, we have:

[tex]\frac{450 + 0.20x}{y} \ge 35[/tex]

Multiply both sides by y

[tex]450 + 0.20x \ge 35y[/tex]

Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Filling out the tree diagram,

On the first throw, there is a 4/4 = 100%* chance Jennifer hits or misses. Therefore, the chance she misses is equal to the difference between

(chance she hits or misses) - (chance she hits) = 4/4 - 1/4 = 3/4

For the second throw, the chance she hits is independent of whether she hits or misses on the first throw. This means that it does not matter whether she hits or misses on the first throw; her chance to hit the second throw will always be 1/3. Therefore, 1/3 can go into the hit category on each hit line on the second throw, and in the miss category, we can put

100% - 1/3 = 1 - 1/3 = 3/3 - 1/3 = 2/3

For Jennifer to hit the bullseye at least once, she must either:

- Hit and then hit

- Hit and then miss

- Miss and then hit

From this, we can determine that if Jennifer hits the first bullseye, she will have hit it at least once, no matter what. Therefore, Jennifer must either:

- Hit the first one

- Miss and then hit

In probability, OR /either means that we add the probabilties. The probability that she hits the first one is 1/4, and the probability that she misses and then hits is

(probability she misses the 1st one) * (probability she hits the second one). We know to multiply here because both scenarios must happen, and for AND probabilities, we multiply. We thus have

(3/4) * (1/3) = 3/12 = 1/4 as the probabilty that she misses then hits, and 1/4 as the probability that she hits the first one. We add these up to get 1/4 + 1/4 = 2/4 = 1/2 as our probability that she hits the bullseye at least once

* we know 4/4 = 100% because 100% = 1, and anything divided by itself is equal to 1.

1. To find the area of the shaded region, you'd find the area of the white rectangular shape, next, find the area of the whole triangular shape, then find the difference of their areas to get the area of the shaded region. Thus, the formula to use would be:

Area of shaded region = area of triangle - area of rectangle

Area of shaded region = ½*base*height - length*width

1. a. Volume of triangular prism = area of triangular base * height of prism

Volume of triangular prism = ½bh * H

Where,

b = 6 m

h = 4 m

H = 8 m

Substitute

Volume of prism = ½*6*4*8

Volume of prism = 96 m³

b. Volume of sphere = ⁴/3πr³

Where,

r = 9 cm

Substitute

Volume = ⁴/3*π*9³

Volume = ⁴/3*π*729

Volume ≈ 3,053.6 cm³ (nearest tenth)

2. Use Pythagorean theorem to find the height of the cone

radius of the cone (r) = ½(16) = 8 cm

Slant height (l) = 11 cm

height (h) = ?

Using Pythagorean theorem, we have:

h = √(l² - r²)

Substitute

h = √(11² - 8²)

h = √(57)

h ≈ 7.5 cm (nearest tenth)

b. Volume of the cone = ⅓πr²h

where,

r = 8 cm

h = 7.5 cm

Volume = ⅓*π*8²*7.5

Volume = 502.7 cm³ (nearest tenth)

In October, her spending increased by 0.2x, and her savings decreased by 0.4(1 -x). Since Cheryl spends or saves all of her income, these two change amounts must be equal:

  0.2x = 0.4(1 -x)
