Approximately 2 gallons will be needed if each gallon of stain and  the project will cost be $73.96 if  each gallon costs $36.98

<h3>How to find the area of a triangle</h3>

The formula for calculating the area of a triangle is expressed as:

A = 0.5bh

where

base = 15feet

height = 20feet

Area of the deck = 20 * 15 * 0.5

Area of the deck is  150 square feet

Number of gallons needed  = 350/150 = 2.3

Hence approximately 2 gallons will be needed if each gallon of stain covers a maximum of 350 square feet.

Cost of the two gallons  = 36.98 * 2

Cost of the two gallons  = $73.96

Hence the project will cost be $73.96 if  each gallon costs $36.98

Carey is trying to decide between two guitars. The first had an original price of $160, but is on sale for $100. The second had
Zolol [24]

Subtract the sale price from the original price then divide the difference by the original price.

Guitar 1: 160 -100 = 60

60/160 = 0.375 x 100 = 37.5%

Guitar 2: 250 - 150 = 100

100/250 = 0.4 x 100 = 40%

The answer is the second guitar has a greater percent change of approximately 40%
