a certain debt will be paid in 52 installments from january 1 to december 31 of a certain year . each of the first 8 payments is to be $ 410 ; each of the remaining payments is to be $ 65 more than each of the first 8 payments . what is the average ( arithmetic mean ) payment that will be made on the debt for the year ?

crazy eddie has a key chain factory . eddie managed to decrease the cost of manufacturing his key chains while keeping the same selling price , and thus increased the profit from the sale of each key chain from 40 % of the selling price to 50 % of the selling price . if the manufacturing cost is now $ 50 , what was it before the decrease ?

a certain rectangular crate measures 12 feet by 16 feet by 18 feet . a cylindrical gas tank is to be made for shipment in the crate and will stand upright when the crate is placed on one of its six faces . what should the radius of the tank be if it is to be of the largest possible volume ?

for max volume of cylinder ( pi * r ^ 2 * h ) we need to max out r ^ 2 * h . we do n ' t know what the dimensions of the crate refer to . . therefore for max vol base should be 18 x 16 i . e . of radius 16 / 2 = 8 d

total entrance fee is ( 2 * $ 5 ) + ( 1.20 * 5 ) = $ 16 total rides fee is ( 0.50 * 3 ) * 3 = $ 4.50 total money spent is $ 20.50 answer is b

if a square mirror has a 20 - inch diagonal , what is the approximate perimeter e of the mirror , in inches ?
|
if you draw the square and diagonal inside the square . u can see square becomes part of two triangles opposite to each other . and we know the property of the triangle , addition of two sides of triangle must be greater than its diagonal in order to complete the triangle . and each side must be less than 20 and perimeter e must be less than 80 , so we can eliminate answer choice c , d and e . so side 1 + side 2 > 20 , that means side 1 or side 2 must be > 10 . so we can eliminate the answer choice a . now we are left with is b
