As seen in the diagram below, Shandra is building a walkway with a width of feet
to go around a swimming pool that measures 8 feet by 6 feet. If the total area of the
pool and the walkway will be 168 square feet, how wide should the walkway be?

Answer:

2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

half of 10 is 10/2 = 5

so 50% of 5 is 2.5

The temperature needs to be increased by [tex]10.8 ^{\circ}F[/tex] for Mrs. Munyai to swim in the pool.

The formula to convert the temperature from Celcius to Fahrenheit is:

[tex]\textdegree F = (\textdegree C * 1.8) + 32[/tex]

We need to calculate the temperature change of [tex]6 \textdegree C[/tex] in Fahrenheit:

[tex]\Delta \textdegree C = 6\\\Delta \textdegree F = \Delta \textdegree C * 1.8 = 10.8[/tex]

The temperature needs to be increased by [tex]10.8 ^{\circ}F[/tex] for Mrs. Munyai to swim in the pool.

We can calculate the  Fahrenheit temperature of the water and the desired temperature in Fahrenheit:

[tex]^{\circ}C = 19\\^{\circ}F = (19 * 1.8) + 32 = 66.2[/tex]

[tex]^{\circ}C = 25\\^{\circ}F = (25 * 1.8) + 32 = 77[/tex]

The current temperature of the pool is [tex]66.2 ^{\circ} F[/tex] and the desired temperature is [tex]77 ^{\circ} F[/tex].

Therefore the temperature needs to be increased by:

[tex]\Delta ^{\circ}F = 77 - 66.2 = 10.8 ^{\circ}F[/tex]

which is the same temperature change we calculated earlier in Fahrenheit.

Therefore, the temperature needs to be increased by [tex]10.8 ^{\circ}F[/tex] for Mrs. Munyai to swim in the pool.

Step-by-step explanation:

How many intervals of running and resting are needed to run and rest for 26 minutes?

Running is in parentheses, resting is not.

Each time he runs (6 minutes) and rests (2 minutes), he takes 8 minutes.

Three times this cycle is 24 minutes. He needs 2 more minutes of running to have a total of 26 minutes.

(6) + 2 + (6) + 2 + (6) + 2 + (2)

Add all the numbers in parentheses which are the times of running.

6 + 6 + 6 + 2 = 20

He ran for 20 minutes and rested for 6 minutes.

He ran 5 km in 20 minutes (of running).

speed = distance/time

speed = [5 km / (20 minutes)] × (60 minutes)/(1 hour)

speed = 15 km/h

Answer: To show that log5 7 = 1/(2n-1)(2mn-m-2), we'll start by using logarithmic properties and the given information.

First, let's express log9 75 in terms of the base 5 logarithm, using the change of base formula:

log9 75 = log5 75 / log5 9

Next, let's simplify the expression inside the logarithm by breaking down 75 and 9 into their prime factors:

log5 (3^2 * 5^2) / log5 (3^2)

Now, using logarithmic properties, we can split the logarithm of a product into the sum of logarithms:

log5 (3^2) + log5 (5^2) - log5 (3^2)

Simplifying further, we have:

2 log5 3 + 2 log5 5 - 2 log5 3

The 2 log5 3 and -2 log5 3 terms cancel each other out, leaving:

2 log5 5

Now, let's substitute the value of m from the given information (log5 21 = m) into the expression:

2 log5 5 = 2 (log5 (5^2)) = 2(2 log5 5) = 4 log5 5 = 4m

Now, let's substitute the value of n from the given information (log9 75 = n) into the expression:

4m = 4(log5 5) = 4(1/2 log5 (5^2)) = 4(1/2 log5 25) = 4(1/2 log5 (5^2 * 5^2))

Using logarithmic properties, we can split the logarithm of a product into the sum of logarithms:

4(1/2 (log5 5^2 + log5 5^2)) = 4(1/2 (2 log5 5 + 2 log5 5)) = 4(1/2 (4 log5 5))

Simplifying further, we have:

4(1/2) (4 log5 5) = 4(2 log5 5) = 8 log5 5 = 8n

Finally, substituting the values of m and n into the expression:

log5 7 = 1/(2n-1)(2mn-m-2) = 1/(2(8) - 1)(2(4m) - m - 2) = 1/(16 - 1)(8m - m - 2) = 1/15(7m - 2)

Therefore, we have shown that log5 7 = 1/(2n-1)(2mn-m-2) = 1/15(7m - 2), using the given values of log5 21 = m and log9 75 = n.

Kevin will need to get a score of 109 on his next test to raise his mean score to exactly 91.

To find out what score Kevin will need to get on his next test to raise his mean score to exactly 91, we can use the formula for the mean:

mean = (sum of all scores) / (number of scores)

We know the current mean score is:

mean = (85 + 94 + 98 + 88 + 85 + 92 + 97 + 81) / 8

          = 89.5

To raise the mean to 91, we can set up the equation:

(85 + 94 + 98 + 88 + 85 + 92 + 97 + 81 + x) / 9 = 91

where x is the score Kevin needs to get on his next test.

Multiplying both sides of the equation by 9, we get:

85 + 94 + 98 + 88 + 85 + 92 + 97 + 81 + x = 819

Simplifying, we get:

710 + x = 819

Subtracting 710 from both sides, we get:

x = 109

Therefore, Kevin will need to get a score of 109 on his next test to raise his mean score to exactly 91.

The required target debt/equity ratio is 0.5 or 1:2.

To calculate the target debt/equity ratio,

Use the following formula,

⇒ Target D/E Ratio = (Target Equity / Target Debt)

First, we need to calculate the weights of equity and debt in the firm's capital structure.

We can use the following formula,

Weight of Equity = Equity / (Equity + Debt)

Weight of Debt = Debt / (Equity + Debt)

Since the firm is unlevered,

its capital structure consists only of equity.

Therefore,

The weight of equity is 1 and the weight of debt is 0.

Now we can use the weighted average cost of capital (WACC) formula to find the firm's current cost of equity.

The WACC formula is as follows,

WACC = (Weight of Equity Cost of Equity)

                        + (Weight of Debt Cost of Debt x (1 - Tax Rate))

Substituting the given values, we get:

⇒ 10% = (1 Cost of Equity) + (0 9% x (1 - 34%))

Solving for Cost of Equity, we get:

Cost of Equity = 10% - (0 9% (1 - 34%))

Cost of Equity = 10%

Since the firm desires a cost of equity of 14%,

we can set up an equation to solve for the target debt/equity ratio:

⇒ 14% = (1 / (1 + Target D/E Ratio)) 10% + ((Target D/E Ratio) / (1 + Target D/E Ratio)) 9% x (1 - 34%)

Simplifying the equation, we get:

⇒ 14% = 10% / (1 + Target D/E Ratio) + 0.0594 x Target D/E Ratio

Multiplying both sides by (1 + Target D/E Ratio), we get:

⇒ 0.14 + 0.14 Target D/E Ratio = 0.1 + 0.0594 Target D/E Ratio

Subtracting 0.0594 x Target D/E Ratio from both sides, we get:

⇒ 0.08 x Target D/E Ratio = 0.04

Dividing both sides by 0.08, we get:

⇒ Target D/E Ratio = 0.5

Therefore, the firm's target debt/equity ratio is 0.5 or 1:2.

Answer:

? = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line parallel to another line will have the same slope. The given line y = 7x + 2 has a slope of 7.

To find the equation of the line that passes through the point (3, -1) and is parallel to the given line, we use the point-slope form of a linear equation, which is y - y1 = m(x - x1), where m is the slope and (x1, y1) is the given point.

So, the equation of the line parallel to y = 7x + 2 and passing through the point (3, -1) is:

y - (-1) = 7(x - 3)

Simplifying this, we get:

y = 7x - 21 - 1

y = 7x - 22

So, the equation of the line is y = 7x - 22.

Given the form of the equation y + 1 = ?(x -3). We then know the answer is y + 1 = 7 (x - 3)

The line's equation is :

Solution:

If two lines are parallel then their slopes are equal.

The slope of [tex]\sf{y=7x+2}[/tex] is 7, so the slope of the line parallel to it is 7.

Now, we should plug the slope and the point into the point slope equation. See, we're even given a hint :

Remember : y - y₁ = m(x - x₁).

This hint tells us the point slope equation.

So I plugin :

The relationship between graph of functions is described below.

Since we can see that,

Both equations are quadratic functions, meaning that their graphs are parabolic.

The first equation,

f(x) = (x - a)(x - b),

It represents a parabola that opens upwards or downwards depending on the values of a and b.

If a < b,

the parabola opens upwards,

and if a > b, it opens downwards.

To graph f(x),

we can first find its x-intercepts by setting f(x) = 0,

⇒ 0 = (x - a)(x - b)(x - c)

This gives us three x-intercepts,

⇒ x = a, x = b, and x = c.

The value of c is important because it determines the direction in which the parabola opens.

If c is greater than both a and b,

the parabola opens upwards, and if c is less than both a and b,

the parabola opens downwards.

If c is between a and b, the parabola has a minimum or maximum point.

Now, we can find the y-intercept by setting x = 0,

⇒  f(0) = (0 - a)(0 - b)(0 - c) = -abc

This tells us that the y-intercept is -abc.

To graph the parabola, we can plot the x-intercepts and the y-intercept, and then use the shape of the parabola to connect the points.

If the parabola opens upwards, it will have a minimum point at the vertex, and if it opens downwards, it will have a maximum point.

The second equation, f(x) = (x - a)(x - b)(x - c),

represents a cubic function,

meaning that its graph is a curve with either a local minimum or maximum.

To graph f(x), we can use the same process as above to find the x-intercepts and y-intercept, and then use the shape of the curve to connect the points.

After plotting can see, the cubic function has two local minima and one local maximum.

It also has a point of inflection at x = (a + b + c)/3.

The statement that there are approximately as many boys between 167 and 169 as there are between 169 and 170 is false.

In statistics, understanding and interpreting data is an essential skill. One way to interpret data is by analyzing the distribution of values within a certain range.

To determine whether the statement is true or false, we need to analyze the distribution of boy's heights between the two ranges. Assuming the heights of boys are normally distributed, we can use the empirical rule, also known as the 68-95-99.7 rule, to estimate the percentage of boys within each range.

The empirical rule states that in a normal distribution:

68% of the values fall within one standard deviation of the mean

95% of the values fall within two standard deviations of the mean

99.7% of the values fall within three standard deviations of the mean

We can use this rule to estimate the percentage of boys within each range as follows:

Between 167 and 169: This range is one standard deviation below the mean. Therefore, approximately 68% of boys' heights fall within this range.

Between 169 and 170: This range is between one and two standard deviations below the mean. Therefore, approximately 27% of boys' heights fall within this range.

Based on this analysis, we can see that there are not approximately as many boys between 167 and 169 as there are between 169 and 170. In fact, there are significantly more boys between 167 and 169 than there are between 169 and 170.

A plane intersecting a rectangular prism can create different cross-sectional shapes depending on the orientation of the plane. Let's explore the two scenarios you mentioned:

Plane parallel to the base: When a plane intersects the rectangular prism parallel to its base, the resulting cross section is also a rectangle. The shape of the cross section will have the same dimensions as the base of the rectangular prism.

Plane perpendicular to the base and through the top vertex: In this case, the cross section will be a triangle. The shape of the cross section will be determined by the intersection of the plane with the three sides of the rectangular prism. The base of the triangle will be formed by the side of the rectangular prism, while the other two sides will be formed by the edges connecting the top vertex of the pyramid to the corresponding vertices of the base.

It's important to note that a rectangular prism is different from a pyramid. A rectangular prism has six rectangular faces, while a pyramid has a polygonal base (in this case, a rectangle) and triangular faces converging to a single point called the apex or top vertex.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

a) $1,224

b) $51

Step-by-step explanation:

a) To calculate Darrell's annual contribution, we need to determine the portion he pays out of the total premium.

Given that the employer pays 90% of the cost, Darrell is responsible for the remaining 10%.

Annual contribution = Total premium × 10%

= $12,240 × 0.10

= $1,224

Therefore, Darrell's annual contribution is $1,224.

b) To find Darrell's semimonthly deduction, we divide his annual contribution by the number of semimonthly periods in a year.

Number of semimonthly periods in a year = 12 (months) × 2 (semimonthly periods per month) = 24

Semimonthly deduction = Annual contribution / Number of semimonthly periods

= $1,224 / 24

= $51

Therefore, Darrell's semimonthly deduction is $51.

Both containers hold the same amount of water.

Given are two solid figures, we need to compare which of them holds more water,

The container one has a base dimension of 3 ft × 180 in with height 90 in. and the second container has base dimension of 3 ft × 180 in with height 90 in.

To compare which container holds more water, we can calculate the volume of each container.

For consistency, let's convert all measurements to a single unit.

1 foot is equal to 12 inches, so the base dimensions of both containers can be expressed as

3 ft × (180 in + 3 ft × 12 in/ft) = 3 ft × 216 in

= 648 in × 648 in.

The volume of a container is calculated by multiplying the base area by the height.

Therefore, the volume of each container can be determined as follows:

Container 1:

Volume = Base area × Height

Volume = (648 in × 648 in) × 90 in

Container 2:

Volume = Base area × Height

Volume = (648 in × 648 in) × 90 in

Since the base dimensions and the height are identical for both containers, their volumes will also be the same.

19/12 - 2/3 = 38/12 - 8/12 = 30/12 = 2.5

This means Brad has 2.5 more pizzas than Steve.
