A room needs to be painted. The room is 15 ft by 23 ft by 8 ft high. A gallon

of paint covers 250 2 and costs $28.

a. Find the number of gallons to paint the room.

b. What is the cost of painting the room if you do the work yourself?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

First we know that the room is a rectangular prism with measures:

width = W = 15ft

length = L = 23ft

height = H = 8ft

We want to paint the room (i suppose that we paint the four walls and the roof)

The area of each two of the walls the width times the height:

A = (15ft)*8ft = 120ft^2

And we have two of these walls, then the total area is:

area = 2*120ft^2 = 240ft^2

The area of each one of the other two walls is the height times the length:

A = (23ft)*8ft = 184ft^2

And we have two of these walls, then the total area is:

A = 2*184ft^2 = 368ft^2

The area of the roof is equal to the length times the width.

A = 23ft*15ft = 276ft^2

Then the total area we need to paint is:

area = 240ft^2 +  368ft^2 + 276ft^2 = 884 ft^2

a) We know that one gallon can cover 250 ft^2

Then to cover 884 ft^2 we need:

N = (884 ft^2)/(250 ft^2) = 3.536 gallons of paint

b) Knowing that each gallon costs $28, and that we need 3.536 gallons of paint to paint the room, the total cost is:

3.54*$28 = $99.008 = $99.01

Now if for some reason you only can buy paint in whole numbers, then you can not buy exactly 3.536 gallons, then you need to buy 4 gallons, and in this case, the total cost will be 4 times $28

cost = 4*$28 = $112

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle x is what I call "point to point" with the angle that measures 95 degrees. Because of this, they are vertical (the vertex of an angle makes a "v"; hence, the reason I call them point to point). Vertical angles are congruent. That means that they have the same measure. If x is vertical to an angle that measures 95 degrees, then x also measures 95 degrees.

Answer:

x is 95 degrees.

You mess with my heart enough for me to hate
I had to even start to debate if you were a good choice
I do not think so, before this I was happy
Until you decided to cheat like you do with everything else
My heart went into two just like how I left
The only one to fix it is you but I keep it broken
I will consider this a token for all the stuff I have done for you
My love will not go away but I will make it leave
Just like you did to me, you did not love me
I could see by the way you looked at anyone else
If you decide to love me I will not return the feeling
That is how my heart will feel because it will not return
You broke it and me I do not see you as human
Rather as a cheater, liar, and a h.oe
I will never love someone like that
But I will never try and treat them like you did me
I have a heart I think you break guys to get your own
All of the shattered hearts that will take to create you one
I will never think of this as a bad choice rather something I needed to do.
Goodbye forever don't even look at me, my queen.

If y varies directly with x. and y=10 when x=5.6, find the value of y when
X=3

Answers

Answer: 5.3571

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula used to calculate direct proportion is: y = kx

We will find the constant of proportionality when y=10 and x=5.6. This will be:

y = kx

10 = 5.6k

k = 10/5.6

k = 1.7857143

The value of y when X=3 will be:

y = kx

y = 1.7857143 × 3

y = 5.3571
