Answer:

x =30

Step-by-step explanation:

in order to evaluate the solution 4/5=20/(x-5)?

solution

the first step to take is to cross multiply

4/5=20/(x-5)

we have,

5 x 20 = 4 ( x -5)

100 = 4x - 20

combine the like terms

100+20 = 4x

120 = 4x

divide both sides by the coefficient of x

120/4 = 4x/4

30 = x

x =30

therefore the value of x in the expression 4/5=20/(x-5)? is 30

Kryger [21]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 25 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

height = 20 ft

leg = 15 ft

length of the line = ?

To solve this problem use the Pythagorean theorem.

Height = short leg = b

leg = long leg = a

length of the line = hypotenuse = c

- Substitution

         c² = (20)² + (15)²

-Simplification

         c² = 400 + 225

         c² = 625

-Result

         c = \sqrt{625}

         c = 25 ft

Joanne and Ed Greenwood built a new barn with an attached arena. To finance the loan, they paid $1,326 interest on $47,600 at 4%
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation

Note that

Interest is represented by I=1326

The principal is represented by P=47,600

Rate is R =4%

And Time is year

Interest is calculated using the formulae,

I =PRT/100

From the above formulae, time can be calculated as

T=100I/PR

T= 100×1326/(47600×4)

T= 132600/190400

T= 0.6964 years

To convert to days, multiply by 365(since those no of days make a year)

T= 0.6964×365=254 days

This was approximated to the nearest day

Answer is 254 days
