4. A pool measuring 24 feet by 16 feet is
surrounded by a uniform path of width x feet.
The total enclosed area is 768 ft².
Find x, the width of the path.
The width of the path, x, is 48 feet
How to determine the parametersThe formula for determining the area of a rectangle is expressed as;
Area = lw
Where;
l is the length of the given rectanglew is the width of the given rectangleFrom the image shown and the information given, we can see that;
The width is given as = x
The area of the rectangle = 768 ft²
The length of the rectangle = 16
Now, substitute the values, we have;
768 = 16x
Make 'x' the subject of formula by dividing both sides by its coefficient, we have;
768/16 = 16x/16
Find the quotient
x = 48 feet
But, we have;
Width = x = 48 feet
Hence, the value is 48 feet

Find the volume of cylinder with r=25.5 ft and height=45ft use 3.14 for pi. Round the answer to the nearest hundredth
The Volume of a Cylinder

Answer:
The complete table:
6 18 2 42
9 27 3 63
Explanation:
We know that for every 9 minutes Montell practices he is able to play 6 songs. This means that the ratio between the number of minutes practices to the number of songs played is
[tex]\frac{\min}{\text{song}}=\frac{9}{6}[/tex]Therefore, if we want to solve for minutes plated, we just multiply both sides by 'song' to get
[tex]song\times\frac{\min}{\text{song}}=\frac{9}{6}\times\text{song}[/tex]which gives
[tex]min=\frac{9}{6}\times\text{song}[/tex]This means the number of minutes practised is 9/6 of the number of songs played.
Now 9/ 6 can be simplfied by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by 3 to get
[tex]\frac{9\div3}{6\div3}=\frac{3}{2}[/tex]therefore, we have
[tex]min=\frac{3}{2}\times\text{song}[/tex]Now we are ready to fill the table.
If Montell plays 18 songs then we have
[tex]\min =\frac{3}{2}\times18[/tex][tex]\min =27[/tex]the minutes practised is 27 for 18 songs.
If Montell practices for 3 minutes then we have
[tex]3=\frac{3}{2}\times\text{song}[/tex]then the value of song must be song = 2, since
[tex]\begin{gathered} 3=\frac{3}{2}\times2 \\ 3=3 \end{gathered}[/tex]Hence, for 3 minutes of practice, Montell sings 2 songs.
Now for 42 songs, the number of minutes played would be
[tex]\min =\frac{3}{2}\times42[/tex]which simplifies to give
[tex]\min =63[/tex]Hence, for 42 songs played, the practice time is 63 minutes.
To summerise, the complete table would be
songs 6 18 2 42
minutes 9 27 3 63
can you please find the slope and the y intersept of the graph of the linear equation y= 4x-5
the slope of the linear equation is 4 and the y intercept is -5
Explantion:we apply the equation of line to find the slope and intercept
Equation of line is in the form: y = mx + c
where m = slope and c = y - intercept
comparing the given equation with the equation of line:
linear equation y= 4x-5
y = y
4x - 5 = mx + c
This means m = 4
4x = mx
m = 4
-5 = c
Hence, the slope of the linear equation is 4 and the y intercept is -5

What is the correct graph of the function?A function shows a mathematical relationship. We would need to look at the graph very closely so as to know weather or not the graph as it has been shown is the correct graph that is befitting of the function must be a straight line graph.
Clearly, the slope of the graph would be positive and beginning from the origin because the number of tickets that is sold is increasing just and the amount of the tickets is increasing. Thus the graph follows the general equation of a straight line; y = mx + c
All these goes to show that what we have befits the function.

Maxim has been offered positions by two car companies. The first company pays a salary of $12000 plus a commission of $800 for each car sold. The second pays a salary of $15600 plus a commission of $600 for each car sold. How many cars would need to be sold to make the total pay the same?
To make the total pay the same, 18 cars would need to be sold
Explanation:Let the number of cars sold be x
The first company pays a salary of $12000 plus a commission of $800 for each car sold
Total pay for the first company = 12000 + 800x
The second pays a salary of $15600 plus a commission of $600 for each car sold
Total pay for the second company = 15600 + 600x
If the total pay is the same:
12000 + 800x = 15600 + 600x
800x - 600x = 15600 - 12000
200x = 3600
x = 3600/200
x = 18
To make the total pay the same, 18 cars would need to be sold
Find the reference angle of [tex] \frac{ - 13\pi}{6} [/tex]

We need to calculate the reference angle of

Let's convert the improper fraction to a mixed fraction:
[tex]-\frac{13\pi}{6}=-2\pi-\frac{\pi}{6}[/tex]-2π corresponds to a complete turn around the circle, so we can discard that part and take only the -π/6
Since it's a negative angle, it runs clockwise and is located at the IV quadrant. The reference angle is π/6 because it's the angle it forms with the x-axis.

A straight line l1 with equation 5x - 7 = 0 cuts the x axis at point A. Straight line l2 is perpendicular to straight line l1 and passes through point A. What is the coordinates of point A and the equation of the straight line l2?
The coordinates of point A are (7/5, 0), and the perpendicular line that also passes through that point is:
y = 0.
How to get the perpendicular line?Here we want to get a line perpendicular to:
5x - 7 = 0
Solving this for x, we get:
5x = 7
x = 7/5.
This is a vertical line, so the perpendicular line will be a horizontal line, which is of the form:
y = a.
We know that the line:
x = 7/5.
Cuts the x-axis at point A.
Remember that the x-axis as coordinates (x, 0).
So the coordinates of point A are (7/5, 0).
Now, the perpendicular line:
y = a
Needs to pass through the point (7/5, 0), so the value of a must be zero, then the line is:
y = 0.
