Assuming a maximum rental duration of 8 days, if we apply this to the equation, Happy Harry's Rentals costs $500, while Smilin' Sam's charges $600. Therefore, for the 7th and 8th days, Happy Harry's Rentals is a better option, while Smilin' Sam's is preferable for the first six days.
I am hesitant to provide a definite answer since I'm not completely certain, but it's clear you can discard options C and D right away since the rate of change cannot be negative. Between options A and B, I would lean towards option B. I would have asked you to consider me the brainliest if I were correct, but I suspect this is for the IA4, where you're unable to check your grade... haha. Apologies, but I hope this assists you in some way!
Answer:
Red paint will cover 262 square feet
of the ramp.
Step-by-step explanation:
The lateral surface area represents the surface area of the sides of the ramp without including the top and bottom surfaces
This ramp has three surfaces
The two sides are triangular with dimensions of length 20 and height 8.5
The back consists of a rectangular shape with length 12 and height 8.5
Step 1: Calculating the Area of Triangle
The area of the triangular side = 
The area of the triangle = 
The area of the triangle =
Thus, the area of the triangle = 85 square feet
Area of both triangles =
= 170
Step 2: Finding the Area of Rectangle
Area of rectangle = 
therefore,
Area of the rectangular back =
= 102 square feet
Step 3: Calculating the total lateral surface area
Overall Lateral Surface Area
= Area of triangles + Area of Rectangle
= 272 square feet

In this scenario

Insert the values


Step 
Calculate the volume of a cone
We are aware that
the volume of a cone equals

In this example

Use the Pythagorean Theorem to determine the height h


Step 
Calculate the empty volume inside the cylinder

Thus
the final result is
the empty volume inside the cylinder is
