Each of the 212 pages in the largest fashion catalog measured 1.2m by 1.9m. whats was the perimeter of a page what was the area

Answers

Final answer:

To find the perimeter of the catalog page, we add the length and width and multiply by 2, resulting in 6.2 meters. For the area, we multiply the length by the width, resulting in 2.28 square meters.

Explanation:

The question asks for the perimeter and area of a page from a fashion catalog with dimensions of 1.2 meters by 1.9 meters. To calculate the perimeter of a rectangle, the formula is 2(length + width), and to calculate the area, the formula is length × width.

For the perimeter:
2(1.2m + 1.9m) = 2(3.1m) = 6.2 meters.

For the area:
1.2m × 1.9m = 2.28 square meters.

Talia swims about 0.7 miles per hour faster than Alina.
Alina swims about 1.5 miles per hour faster than Talia.
Talia swims about 1.5 miles per hour faster than Alina. pls help

Answers

The answer is 
(D) Talia swims about 1.5 miles per hour faster than Alina.

Answer:  

Talia swims about 1.5 miles per hour faster than Alina.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, 1 miles = 1609 meter and 1 hour = 60 seconds,

⇒ [tex]\text{ 1 miles per hour } = \frac{1609}{3600}\text{ meter per seconds}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]\text{ 1 meter per seconds } = \frac{3600}{1609}\text{ miles per hours}[/tex]

Here, The speed of Alina = 2.5 miles per hour = 2.5 × 1609/3600

[tex]=\frac{4022.5}{3600} \text{ meter per seconds }[/tex]

[tex]=1.11736111\text{ meter per seconds}[/tex]

And, the speed of Talia = 1.8 meter per second,

Since 1.8  > 1.11736111

⇒ Talia swims faster than Alina.

And, the difference between their speeds = 1.8 - 1.11736111 = 0.68263889 meter per seconds

= 0.68263889× 3600/1609 miles per hour

= 1.52734618 miles per hour ≈ 1.5 miles per hour ,

Fourth option is correct.

How many should Gymnast Clothing manufacture to make a profit? HINT [See Example 2.] (Round your answer up to the nearest whole number.)

Answers

Given that Gymnast Clothing sells the jerseys at $110 each, the revenue function is given by

[tex]R(x)=110x[/tex]

Profit function is given by revenue function minus cost function, i.e.

[tex]P(x)=R(x)-C(x)=110x-(3000+10x+0.2x^2)=110x-3000-10x-0.2x^2=-0.2x^2+100x-3000[/tex]

Thus,
[tex]P(x)=-0.2x^2+100x-3000[/tex]

The number Gymnast Clothing should manufacture to make a profit is given by
[tex]-0.2x^2+100x-3000=0 \\ \\ \Rightarrow0.2x^2-100x+3,000=0 \\ \\ \Rightarrow x=468, \ 32[/tex]

Because, Gymnast Clothing manufactures expensive hockey jerseys for sale to college bookstores in runs of up to 300.

The number Gymnast Clothing should manufacture to make a profit is 32.
Final answer:

The revenue function for Gymnast Clothing is R(x) = 110x. The profit function is P(x) = 110x - (3000 + 10x + 0.2x^2). To determine the profit maximizing quantity, we need to find the value of x that makes P(x) greater than zero.

Explanation:

To find the revenue function for Gymnast Clothing, we need to multiply the number of hockey jerseys sold (x) by the selling price per jersey ($110). Therefore, the revenue function is R(x) = 110x.

To find the profit function, we subtract the cost function C(x) from the revenue function R(x). Therefore, the profit function is P(x) = R(x) - C(x). Substituting the given cost function, we have P(x) = 110x - (3000 + 10x + 0.2x^2).

To determine how many jerseys Gymnast Clothing should manufacture to make a profit, we need to find the value of x that makes P(x) greater than zero. We can solve this mathematically or graphically. In this case, it is more efficient to solve it graphically by plotting the profit function and finding the quantity that corresponds to a positive profit.

You are asked to determine the perimeter of the cover of your textbook. you measure the length as 48.28 cm and the width as 24.83 cm. how many significant figures should you report for the perimeter?

Answers

4 significant figures

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the textbook, l = 48.28 cm

The breadth of the textbook, b = 24.83 cm

The shape of the textbook is a rectangle. The perimeter is equal to the sum of all sides. Mathematically, it is given by :

[tex]p=2(l+b)[/tex]

[tex]p=2\times (48.28+24.83)[/tex]

p = 146.22 cm

So, the perimeter of the textbook is 146.22 cm. There are 5 significant figures in this number since non zero digits are always significant. Hence, this is the required solution.

Find an equation for the plane that is perpendicular to v = (1, 1, 1) and passes through (1, 0, 0).

Answers

The perpendicular vector delivers you the coefficients of the x,y,z variables, so you know that your plane will have the equaction x+y+z = c.

Now all you have to do is find c to make the plane pass through (1,0,0).

If you fill in this point, you get c=1, so the equation is:

x+y+z=1.

Final answer:

The equation for the plane that is perpendicular to the vector v = (1, 1, 1) and passes through the point (1, 0, 0) is x + y + z = 1.

Explanation:

To find an equation for the plane that is perpendicular to the vector v = (1, 1, 1) and passes through the point (1, 0, 0), we need to use the normal vector v as the coefficient of the variables in the plane equation.

Step 1: The vector v is perpendicular to the plane, so its components are the coefficients of x, y, and z in the plane equation. Since v has components (1, 1, 1), the plane equation can be written as x - y - z = D, where D is a constant.

Step 2: The plane passes through the point (1, 0, 0). Substituting these coordinates into the plane equation allows us to find D.

Substituting, we get 1(1) + 1(0) + 1(0) = D. Hence, D = 1. Therefore, the equation of the plane is x + y + z = 1.

Sally can paint a room in 5 hours while it takes steve 9 hours to paint the same room. how long would it take them to paint the room if they worked​ together

Answers

Final answer:

Sally and Steve will take approximately 3.21 hours to paint a room together. This is calculated by adding their individual rates of painting and then finding the reciprocal of their combined rate.

Explanation:

To determine how long it would take Sally and Steve to paint a room together, we need to calculate their combined work rate. Sally's rate of painting is 1 room per 5 hours, while Steve's rate is 1 room per 9 hours. Their combined rate is the sum of their individual rates. This can be expressed as:

Combined rate = Sally's rate + Steve's rate = (1 room / 5 hours) + (1 room / 9 hours)

The least common multiple (LCM) of 5 and 9 is 45, so to add these rates together, we convert them into a common denominator:

Combined rate = (9 rooms / 45 hours) + (5 rooms / 45 hours) = (9+5) rooms / 45 hours = 14 rooms / 45 hours

To find out how long it takes them to paint one room together, we take the reciprocal of their combined rate:

Time to paint one room = 1 / (Combined rate) = 45 hours / 14 rooms

Therefore, rounding to two decimal places, Sally and Steve would take approximately 3.21 hours to paint the room together.

A jet ski company charges a flat fee of $26.00 plus $1.00 per hour to rent a jet ski. Another company charges a fee of $14.75 plus $3.25 per hour to rent the same jet ski.

find the number of hours which the cost are the same. Round your answer to the nearest whole number.

Answers

so i used trial and error and insert numbers starting for 2 and i found out that:

3.25*5 hours=16.25 which + 14.75 the fee is equal to 31/ 

and for the other company 26+1*5=26+5=31

and there u go the number of hours is 5.

Final answer:

The number of hours when the cost of renting a jet ski from two different companies is the same is 5 hours, when rounded to the nearest whole number.

Explanation:

To find the number of hours where the cost to rent a jet ski from two different companies is the same, we can set up two equations to represent the cost from each company and solve for the number of hours.

For the first company, the cost C is given by C = 26 + 1h, where h represents the number of hours.

For the second company, the cost C is given by C = 14.75 + 3.25h.

To find when the costs are the same, we set the two equations equal to each other:

26 + 1h = 14.75 + 3.25h

Now we solve for h:

Subtract 1h from both sides: 26 = 14.75 + 2.25h

Subtract 14.75 from both sides: 11.25 = 2.25h

Divide both sides by 2.25: h = 11.25 / 2.25

Calculate h: h = 5 hours

Therefore, the number of hours at which the costs are the same, when rounded to the nearest whole number, is 5 hours.
