Push Mower
------------------------------------------------------------------
It takes 5 hours to complete the job
1 hour = 1/5 of the job
------------------------------------------------------------------
Riding Lawn Mower
------------------------------------------------------------------
It takes 3 hours to complete the job
1 hour = 1/3 of the job
------------------------------------------------------------------
Push Mower + Riding Lawn Mower
------------------------------------------------------------------
1 hour = 1/5 + 1/3
1 hour = 3/15 + 5/15
1 hour = 8/15 of the job.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Calculate time needed to complete
------------------------------------------------------------------
8/15 of the job takes 1 hour
8/15 of the job = 1 hour
------------------------------------------------------------------
Divide by 8/15 on both side
------------------------------------------------------------------
8/15 ÷ 8/15 of the job = 1 ÷ 8/15 hour
Whole of the job = 1 x 15/8 hours
Whole of the job = 15/8 hours
Whole of the job = 1 7/8 hours
------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: 1 7/8 hours

Consider right triangle with vertices B - base of the hill, S - top of the statue and Y - you. In this triangle angle B is right and angle Y is 13.2°. If h is a height of the statue, then the legs YB and BS have lengths 77 ft and 16+h ft.
You have lengths of two legs and measure of one acute angle, then you can use tangent to find h:
ft.
Answer: the height of the statue is 2.0565 ft.
The volume of a sphere is given by:

So, we need to deduct this equation. We will walk through Calculus on the concept of a solid of revolution that is a solid figure that is obtained by rotating a plane curve around some straight line (the axis of revolution<span>) that lies on the same plane. We know from calculus that:
</span>
![V=\pi \int_{a}^{b}[f(x)]^{2}dx](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=V%3D%5Cpi%20%5Cint_%7Ba%7D%5E%7Bb%7D%5Bf%28x%29%5D%5E%7B2%7Ddx)
<span>
Then, according to the concept of solid of revolution we are going to rotate a circumference shown in the figure, then:

Isolationg y:
</span>

<span>
So,
</span>

<span>
</span>
![V=\pi \int_{a}^{b}[\sqrt{r^{2}-x^{2}}]^{2}dx](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=V%3D%5Cpi%20%5Cint_%7Ba%7D%5E%7Bb%7D%5B%5Csqrt%7Br%5E%7B2%7D-x%5E%7B2%7D%7D%5D%5E%7B2%7Ddx)
<span>
</span>

<span>
being -r and r the limits of this integral.
</span>

<span>
Solving:
</span>
![V=\pi[r^{2}x-\frac{x^{3}}{3}]\right|_{-r}^{r}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=V%3D%5Cpi%5Br%5E%7B2%7Dx-%5Cfrac%7Bx%5E%7B3%7D%7D%7B3%7D%5D%5Cright%7C_%7B-r%7D%5E%7Br%7D)

Let x be the original cost for the sofa.
X x (1 + 0.07) =3210
X = 3000
Now we know the cost for the sofa.
Let p be the profit percent.
3000 x (1 + p) = 3360
P = 0.12
So the percentage profit is 12%
