The calculated cost is 19.5. Starting with 7 + 7 yields 14, then adding 0.20 results in 14.2. Adding 5 gives 19.2, and finally, adding 0.30 leads to the final amount of 19.5.

AnnZ [12381]

The total volume is stated as 1080 cubic feet.

The height is specified to be 9 feet.

The length exceeds the width by 2 feet, meaning Length = x+2

If the stall measures 10 feet in width, then the corresponding length would be 10 +2 = 12 feet.

Calculating the volume yields 10 x 12 x 9 = 1080 cubic feet.


Therefore, it is feasible for the width to measure 10 feet.

One similar figure has an area that is nine times the area of another. The larger figure must have dimensions that are times the
Svet_ta [12734]
T<span>he area of a figure signifies the measure of space within a two-dimensional shape, typically expressed as square units based on the figure's dimensions.

For instance, with a shape having dimensions of k, its area can be given by k^2.
</span>
<span>Consider that one similar figure possesses an area nine times that of another.

As these figures are similar, their areas correspond to the proportionality of their dimensions.

Let the smaller shape's dimensions be k, while the larger is p times the dimensions of the smaller shape. The smaller shape's area is k^2 and the larger shape's area is (pk)^2.

Now, knowing the larger figure's area is nine times the area of the smaller figure, we have:
\frac{(pk)^2}{k^2} = \frac{9}{1} \\ \\ \frac{p^2k^2}{k^2} =9 \\ \\ p^2=9 \\ \\ p= \sqrt{9} \\ \\ p=3
</span>
Thus, the dimensions of the larger figure must be 3 times those of the smaller figure.

Using everyday knowledge, indicate whether the if-then statements are correct forward-only or both forward and reverse.
Zina [12379]

Answer:

1. Both directions

2. Only in one direction

Step-by-step explanation:

    The reason Statement 1 can occur both ways is that if Bo and Mel are connected, it holds true forward and backward.

The reasoning for Statement 2 being one-directional is that if the sprinklers are operating, then the grass is wet will be valid since it's stating ONLY that the sprinklers are on. If it were to reverse and the grass is wet ONLY because of the sprinklers, then it's incorrect as rain could also cause the grass to be wet. Thus, there are numerous possibilities for the grass being wet, which explains the answers.
