135 because 45x3=135 at least I'm sure this is what you mean

2N+3=45

2N = 42

N = 42/2 = 21

N = 21

Kendra has a painting canvas that is 20 inches wide by 37 inches high. She painted a red rose, which covered 50% of the canvas.

uysha [10]

The total area is:
A = (20) * (37)
A = 740 in ^ 2
We can make the following rule of three:
740in ^ 2 -----> 100%
x --------------> 50%
Clearing x we have:
x = (50/100) * (740)
x = 370 in ^ 2
Answer:
the area of the canvas which was covered by the red rose was:
x = 370 in ^ 2

Zach wants to build a slanted skateboard ramp. He knows he wants the ramp to form a 15 degrees angle with the ground and be 4 fe

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer: The ramp would be 15.5 feet long.

Step-by-step explanation: Please refer to the attached diagram for details.

Angle C shows the angle to be formed by the ramp from the ground, which is 15 degrees. Also, from the ground, it’s going to be four feet tall, which is line AB. The top of the ramp is point A, which makes line AC the entire length of the ramp. Since we have a reference angle (angle C) and two sides, the opposite and the hypotenuse, we shall apply the trigonometric ratio.

SinC = opposite/hypotenuse

Sin 15 = 4/b

By cross multiplication we now have

b = 4/Sin15

b = 4/0.2588

b = 15.4599

Approximately b = 15.5

Therefore the length of the ramp would be 15.5 feet
