Answer:

$158.8

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 12 months in 1 year.

If in 1 year, it looses value of 10.3%, so in a month it will loose value of:

10.3%/12 = 0.8583% per month

So, to find the decreased value (in dollars) per month, we got to find 0.8583% of 18,500 dollars.

First, we need to convert percentage to decimal by dividing by 100. Then we multiply that to 18,500 to get our answer. So:

0.8583% = 0.8583/100 = 0.008583

Now,

0.008583 * $18,500 = $158.7855

Rounded to nearest tenth (1 decimal pae) = $158.8

Elias and Niko are polishing the silver at the heritage museum.Elias could polish all the silver himself in 40 minutes.That task
irina1246 [14]

Let x be the time it takes Elias and Niko to polish the silver working together. If Elias works alone, he could polish all the silver himself in 40 minutes. Then, in 1 minute, he will make \frac{1}{40} of the total work. If the same analysis is applied Niko, in 1 minute, will make \frac{1}{50} of the total work.


Working together Elias and Niko will need x minutes to make all the work. Then, in 1 minute, they will make \frac{1}{x} of the total work.  So, the fraction of the total work they make in 1 minute is given by this equation:

\frac{1}{x}=\frac{1}{40}+\frac{1}{50} \\ \\ \frac{1}{x}=\frac{50+40}{2000} \\ \\ x=\frac{2000}{90} \\ \\ \boxed{x=22.22 minutes}

80.64
 because 16 times 12 is 192 
if every tile is 2 feet divide 192 by 2 
you should get 96 meaning there are 96 tiles
then take 96 and multiply by it by .84 because every tile is 84 cents 
you then get 80.64

∠A and ∠C are right angles. m∠p = _???_ degrees.
iogann1982 [59]

Answer

Find out the  m∠p .

To prove

As in ΔDAB is a right triangle

Apply pythagorean theorem

Hypotenuse ² = Perpendicular ² + Base²

DB² = AB² + AD²

AB = 5 units

AD = 6 units

Put in the above formula

DB² = 5² + 6²

      = 25 + 36

     = 61

DB = \sqrt{61}\ units

           = 7.8 units (approx)

Now in  ΔDCB is a right triangle .

By using the trignometric identity .

cosp = \frac{Base}{Hypotenuse}

cosp = \frac{DC}{DB}

As DC = 4 units

DB = 7.8 units  (approx)

Put all the values in the trignometric identity .

cos p = \frac{4}{7.8}

\angle p = cos^{-1}(\frac{4}{7.8})

∠p = 59.15 ° (approx)

A right pyramid with a square base has a base edge length of 12 meters and slant height of 6StartRoot 2 EndRoot meters. The apot
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

Volume of the right pyramid = 288 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of the pyramid = \frac{1}{3}\times {\text{Area of the rectangular base}\times height(h)

From the ΔAOB,

By Pythagoras theorem,

AB² = AO² + OB²

(6√2)² = AO² + (6)²

72 = AO² + 36

AO = √(36) = 6 m

Since base of the pyramid is a square so area of the base = (Length × Width) = (side)²

Now volume of the pyramid = \frac{1}{3}[(Length)(width)]\times height

                                               = \frac{1}{3}(12\times 12)\times 6

                                               = 288 m²

Therefore, volume of the right pyramid is 288 m².
