Answer:

$Area = 2,031ft^2$

Total weight of gravel on the roof = $24,372 pounds$

Step-by-step Explanation:

The area Adams planned to cover with gravel can be divided into 3 rectangles as shown in the diagram attached.

We would have 3 rectangles. See the attachment below to check out how we arrive at the dimensions of the 3 rectangles.

Area of rectangle = L*W

Area to be covered by gravel = area of rectangle 1 + area of rectangle 2 + area of rectangle 3

Area to be covered with gravel = $(30*17) + (13*9) + (52*27)$

$Area = (30*17) + (13*9) + (52*27) = 2,031ft^2$

Total weight of gravel on the roof = 12 pounds per square foot multiplied by total area of the roof to be covered = $12 * 2031 = 24,372 pounds$

Phoenix [80]

His end mileage minus his starting mileage will give us the total number of miles he traveled. 28017-26645=1372 miles traveled.
We can divide that by his average mpg to figure out how many gallons of gas he bought:
1372/48 = 28.583 gallons.
Now divide the amount he paid by this to get the price per gallon:
62.28/28.583 = $2.179 per gallon of gas.

Two friends went rowing on the river. They first traveled with current for 3 hours. The way back took them 4 hours and 48 minute

kaheart [24]

Answer:

1.5 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let speed of boat be x

let speed of current be c

Also, note D = RT

D is distance

R is rate

T is time

Now, for first leg, we can write:

(x+c)3 = D

And for second leg , we can write:

(x-c)4.8 = D [note 4 hour 48 minutes is 4.8 hours]

We can equate both D's to get:

(x+c)3 = (x-c)4.8

3x + 3c = 4.8x - 4.8c

7.8c = 1.8x

We know x = 6.5 [given], plugging it in and solving for c:

7.8c = 1.8(6.5)

c = 1.5

Speed of Current = 1.5 miles per hour

Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

There are 11550 possible selections

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Men = 7$

$Women = 11$

Required

How many ways can 4 men and 4 women be selected

The keyword in the question is SELECTION and it means COMBINATION;

So, number of selection is:

$Number = Men * Women$

$Number = ^7C_4 * ^{11}C_4$

This gives

$Number = \frac{7!}{(7-4)!4!} * \frac{11!}{(11-4)!4!}$

$Number = \frac{7!}{3!4!} * \frac{11!}{7!4!}$

$Number = \frac{7 * 6 * 5 * 4!}{3!4!} * \frac{11 * 10 * 9 * 8 * 7!}{7!4!}$

$Number = \frac{7 * 6 * 5}{3!} * \frac{11 * 10 * 9 * 8}{4!}$

$Number = \frac{7 * 6 * 5}{3 * 2 * 1} * \frac{11 * 10 * 9 * 8}{4 * 3 * 2 * 1}$

$Number = \frac{7 * 6 * 5}{6} * \frac{11 * 10 * 9 * 8}{4 * 3 * 2 * 1}$

$Number = 7 * 5 * \frac{11 * 10 * 9 * 8}{4 * 3 * 2 * 1}$

$Number = 7 * 5 * \frac{7920}{24}$

$Number = 7 * 5 * 330$

$Number = 11550$

Hence;

<em>There are 11550 possible selections</em>

miv72 [106K]

On the added picture you can see that graphs of functions $y=2x^2-2$ and $y=-0.5x+4$ have two points of intersection. The x-coordinates of these points are the solutions of the equation
$2x^2-2=-0.5x+4$ .
Hence, the approximate solutions are x=-1.9 and x=1.6.

What is the volume, in cubic in, of a cylinder with a height of 12in and a base radius of 6in, to the nearest tenths place?

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

1356.5 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information:

Height of the cylinder = 12 in.

Radius of base of the cylinder = 6 in.

We need to find volume of the cylinder.

Volume of cylinder:

$V=\pi r^2h$

where, r is the radius of base and h is height of the cylinder.

Substitute the given values in the above formula.

$V=\pi (6)^2(12)$

$V=(3.14)(36)(12)$ $[\because \pi=3.14]$

$V=1356.48$

Approx to nearest tenth.

$V\approx 1356.5$

Therefore, the volume of cylinder is 1356.5 cubic inches.
