Answer:

16 children

Step-by-step explanation:

80% of 20 children comes out to 16 children who are of age 5.

If desired, rewrite "80%" as "0.80" and use that 0.80 as the multiplier of 20:

0.80(20 children) = 16 children.

Damon plans to buy a snowboard that cost $160. Damon has $40. He will save $20 each week until he has enough to buy the snowboar
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:  It will take Damon 6 weeks to save the money he needs to buy the snowboard

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's see what the problem is giving us:

-The variable X will represent the number of weeks it will take Damon to save the money he needs.

- Damon has $40

- Damon is going to safe $20 weekly

- The snowboard costs $160

Therefor:

Our equation will be:  $40 + $20X = $160

Step 1

We need to isolate the variable by subtracting in both sides of the equation 40 in order to maintain the equality.

40 - 40 + 20X = 160 - 40

This will let us with 20X = 120

Step 2

We have to isolate the variable again, but this time (because the variable is being multiplied by 20) we have to divide on both sides of the equation.

20X/20 = 120/20

Therefore: X=6

3. A kite is aloft at the end of a 1500 foot string. The string make an angle of 43° with the
sineoko [7]

Answer:

h= 1500\,*\,sin(43^o)

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that there is a right angle triangle formed with sides as follows:

hypotenuse is the actual 1500 ft string. The acute angle 43 degrees is opposite to the segment that represents the height of the kite from the ground. Therefore, the trigonometric ratio that we can use to find that opposite side to the given angle, is the sine function as shown below:

sin(43^o) = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse} \\sin(43^o) = \frac{opposite}{1500}\\opposite = 1500\,*\,sin(43^o)\\h= 1500\,*\,sin(43^o)

Aisha wants to paint the four walls of her living room.
sergiy2304 [10]

The total amount Aisha would pay to paint her room is $54.

<h3>What is the cost of painting the rooms?</h3>

The first step is to determine the area of the walls. The walls have the shape of a rectangle. Thus, the formula for the area of a rectangle would be used to determine the area of the wall.

Area of the three walls without a door : 3 x (length x width)

3 x (2.4 x 5.2) = 37.44 m²

Area of the fourth wall with a door : area of the wall - area of the door

(2.4 x 5.2) - (2 x 0.8) = 10.88m²

Total area of the walls : area of the three walls + area of the wall with the door

10.88m² + 37.44 m² = 48.32 m²

The next step is to determine the number of tins that would be needed:

48.32 /12 = 4.03

5 tins would needed

Cost of the 5 tins: (4 x 12) + (0.5 x 12) = $54
