Since the tax on the room is given by the function:
T(x)=0.06x+45
And x(cost in dollars of the room) is given= $120, you just have to subtitue x=120 on the function
T(120)=0.06(120)+4.5
T(120)=7.2+4.5
T(120)=11.7
So, the tax in dollars would be $11.7

Hangalakani leaves his work for home at 3.30 PM .
Hangalakani starts his work at 7.30 am.
He works for 6.5 hours.
He then takes a lunch break for 1 hour .
He then takes tea break for about 30 minutes = 0.5 hour
Total time spent at work = 6.5 + 1 + 0. 5 = 8 hours.
So if he starts work at 7.30 then he will end at
7.30 am + 8 hours = 3.30 pm in the afternoon .
Now the manager says that they need 246 bags while Hangalakani calculated they need 245.37 bags of cement.
The manager is correct because bags of cement are not sold as a part or decimal . The number of bags that can be bought must be a whole number.

How to find the area of a square with coordinates?The area of a square is given by;
A = L²
where;
L is the length of the side of the square
The sides of a square all have the same length, and as such we just need to find the length of one side.
The length of the side of the square here is the distance between two vertices, which can be calculated as
L = √[(x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²]
However, to avoid long process, since it is a square, we can use subtraction of coordinates to get the side length which is gotten by using the first 3 coordinates;
Horizontal length = (6 + 6) = 12
Thus;
Area = L² = 12² = 144 in²

If the measures of the angles of a triangle arerepresented by 2x, 3x - 15, and 7x +15, the triangleis1) an isosceles triangle2) a right triangle3) an acute triangle4) an equiangular triangle
Answer
Option 1 is correct.
The triangle is an isosceles triangle.
Explanation
Noting that the sum of angles in a triangle is 180°.
We can solve for each of the angles in this triangle to obtain the type of triangle it is.
The angles of the triangle are 2x, (3x - 15) and (7x + 15)
2x + 3x - 15 + 7x + 15 = 180°
2x + 3x + 7x - 15 + 15 = 180°
12x = 180°
Divide both sides by 12
(12x/12) = (180°/12)
x = 15°
We can then solve for the measures of the three angles now
2x = 2 (15°) = 30°
3x - 15 = 3 (15°) - 15° = 45° - 15° = 30°
7x + 15 = 7 (15°) + 15° = 105° + 15° = 120°
So, the angles of the triangle are 30°, 30° and 120°
A tringle that has two of its angles equal to each other is called an isosceles triangle.

ANSWER
• (g o f)(x) = ,16x² + 24x + 9
,• B., the domain of g o f is all real numbers
EXPLANATION
The composition is,
[tex](g\circ f)(x)=g(f(x))[/tex]This means that, to find the composition, we have to replace x with f(x) in the function g(x),
[tex]g(f(x))=(f(x))^2[/tex]Now, replace f(x) with its expression,
[tex]g(f(x))=(4x+3)^2[/tex]We can expand this binomial squared to write it in standard form. The composition is,
[tex](g\circ f)(x)=16x^2+24x+9[/tex]As we can see, this is a polynomial function. Therefore, the domain is all real numbers.
mean=100 sd=20 determine the probability that random student scores below 70 on the pax test. above 112 on the pax test, and random student scores between 85 and 115 on the pax test
For this problem, we are given the mean and standard deviation of a certain test. We need to determine a probability of a random sample to be in a few values.
The first value we need to determine is the probability of the random sample being below 70. The first step we need to take is to determine the z-score of this value, which can be calculated with the following expression:
[tex]Z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]For the value of 70, we have:
[tex]Z=\frac{70-100}{20}=\frac{-30}{20}=-1.5[/tex]Now we need to find this value on the z-table, which is:
[tex]P(Z<-1.5)=0.0668[/tex]Therefore we can determine that the probability of a value to be below 70 is 6.68%.
Now we need to determine the probability of a value above 112. We need to determine the z-score once again:
[tex]Z=\frac{112-100}{20}=\frac{12}{20}=0.6[/tex]The z-table only tells us values below the z-score, so we need to subtract the result from 1, which is shown below:
[tex]P(Z>0.6)=1-P(Z<0.6)=1-0.7275=0.2725[/tex]The probability of the value being greater than 112 is 27.25%.
Now we need to find the probability of the score to be between 85 and 115. We need to find both Z-scores:
[tex]\begin{gathered} Z(85)=\frac{85-100}{20}=\frac{-15}{20}=-0.75\\ \\ Z(115)=\frac{115-100}{20}=\frac{15}{20}=0.75 \\ \end{gathered}[/tex]So we need to find the two values on the Z-table and subtract them. We have:
[tex]P(-0.75The probability of the random value being between 85 and 115 is 54.68%.which of the following is not a polynomial identityA) x²+y²=x²+2xy+y²B) x³+y³=(x+y) (x²-xy+y²)C) (x+y)² = x²+2xy+y²D) x²-y²= (x+y) (x-y)
The first option:
A)
x² + y² = x² + 2xy + y²
is not a polynomial identity because the right side of the equation corresponds to a binomial squared, which is given by:
(x + y)² = x² + 2xy + y²
and what you have left side of the given expression is x² + y² and not (x + y)² which is totally different.
Hence, x² + y² = x² + 2xy + y² is not a polynomial identity

We can formulate an expression for the surface area of the attic like this:
The area of a triangle is given by the following formula:
[tex]A=\frac{b\times h}{2}[/tex]Where b is the base and h is the height of the triangle.
The area of a rectangle is given by the following formula:
[tex]A=w\times l[/tex]Where w is the width and l is the length of the rectangle.
In this case, the attic has three rectangular faces, all of them have a width of 45 ft. two of them have a length of 25 ft and one has a width of 40 ft, then we can calculate the areas of these faces like this:
[tex]\begin{gathered} A1=45\times40 \\ A2=45\times25 \\ A3=45\times25 \end{gathered}[/tex]By summing up these areas, we get the area of the rectangular faces:
[tex]A=45\times40+45\times25+45\times25[/tex]From this expression, we can factor 45 to get:
[tex]A=45\times(40+25+25)[/tex]For the two triangular faces, their height equals 15 ft and the length of the bases equals 40 ft, then their areas are:
[tex]\begin{gathered} A1=\frac{15\times40}{2} \\ A2=\frac{15\times40}{2} \end{gathered}[/tex]By summing them up, we get the area of the triangular faces:
[tex]A=\frac{15\times40}{2}+\frac{15\times40}{2}=15\times40[/tex]By summing the area of the rectangular faces and the area of the triangular faces, we get the expression to calculate the total surface area of the attic, like this:
[tex]A=45(40+25+25)+40\times15=4650[/tex]Then, the net Linda draw is correct. The first term of Linda's expression 45(40+25+25) is correct. The second term of Linda's equation missing a factor of 2. The surface area of Linda's attic is 4650 square feet

[tex](0,3)\text{ and (2,12)}[/tex]Therefore, the values for k and b will be resolved graphically.
Let us now plot the graph using a graphical calculator
From the graph,
[tex]\begin{gathered} y_1=f(x) \\ a=k=3 \\ b=2 \end{gathered}[/tex]Final answers
[tex]\begin{gathered} k=3 \\ b=2 \end{gathered}[/tex]Add Solve: n + 7 = 31
Answer:
n = 24
Explanation:
The initial expression is:
n + 7 = 31
So, to solve the equation, we need to subtract 7 from both sides:
n + 7 - 7 = 31 - 7
n = 24
Therefore, the solution is n = 24
Complete the statements about the following numbers: 2/7, 0.1, 0.9, 6/8. Use the + and - buttons to change how many ticks are displayed. The number represents the amount of even segments between 0 and 1. The point closest to the benchmark 1 is at The point closest to the benchmark O is at How would you order these fractions and decimals from least to greatest? Click or tap and drag to move the dot along the number line. 1 B 2 2 +
To solve the exercise it is easier to convert all the given points to decimals. So,
[tex]\frac{2}{7}=0.23[/tex][tex]\frac{6}{8}=0.75[/tex]Then,
*The point closest to the benchmark 1 is at 0.9.
*The point closest to the benchmark 0 is 0.1.
*Ordering these points from least to greatest you have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 0.1 \\ 0.23=\frac{2}{7} \\ 0.75=\frac{6}{8} \\ 0.9 \end{gathered}[/tex]The results of a survey show that the percent of adults in a certain town who want to add bike lanes to amajor roadway is in the interval (0.57, 0.65) (9 points)(a) What is the point estimate for the percent who want to add the bike lanes?(b) What is the poll's margin of error?(c) If the town's adult population is 31,526, what is the best estimate for the number of people whowould support the bike lanes?
If we know the confidence interval for the proportion, the point estimate will be at the center of this interval.
Then, we can calculate the point estimate p as the average between the boundaries of the interval:
[tex]p=\frac{0.57+0.65}{2}=\frac{1.22}{2}=0.61[/tex]The margin of error can be calculated, knowing the interval, as half the difference between the upper boundary and the lower boundary of the interval:
[tex]\text{MOE}=\frac{UB-LB}{2}=\frac{0.65-0.57}{2}=\frac{0.08}{2}=0.04[/tex]The margin of error is 0.04. This margin of error is also the absolute difference between any boundary of the interval and the point estimate.
If the town's population is 31,526, the best estimate for the number of people who
would support the bike lanes is to use the point estimate as the proportion:
[tex]X=p\cdot N=0.61\cdot31526\approx19231[/tex]Answer:
a) The point estimate is p=0.61
b) The margin of error is MOE = 0.04
c) The best estimate is X=19231
If a person travels 3.5 miles in 30 minutes, what is their speed i miles per hour
Given:-
If a person travels 3.5 miles in 30 minutes.
To find their speed in miles per hour.
So now we solve using the formula,
[tex]\text{Distance}=\text{speed}\times time[/tex]Substituting the known values. we get,
[tex]3.5=\text{Speed}\times\frac{1}{2}[/tex]Now we solve for speed. so we get,
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{speed}=3.5\times2 \\ \text{speed}=7 \end{gathered}[/tex]So the required speed is 7miles/hr.
