Answer:

The number of people watching the parade is 26,400

Step-by-step explanation:

Breadth of crowd = 10 feet

Length of crowd = 1 mile = 5280 feet

Area of crowd = Length \times Breadth

                       = 5280 \times 10  

                       = 52800ft^2  

1 person occupy space = 2 sq.feet

No. of persons occupy 52800ft^2  space :

= \frac{52800}{2}

= 26400  

Hence the number of people watching the parade is 26,400

We know that on each side of the street it is 10 feet deep and 1 mile long, which 1 mile = 5280 feet. So, lets get the area first.

First get the area of one side of the street. Note *  means to multiply

10ft * 5280ft = 52800\ ft^2

We know that one person occupies 2 square feet so

1 person = 2\ ft^2

We take 52800 and divide it by 2, which 2 represent 1 person

26400 / 2 = 26400

Now we know that one side represent 26400 people. We have two sides so we times this by 2


26400 * 2 = 52800 people

Answer = 52,800

If (angle)1 = 7x and (angle)4 = 3x + 20, what is the value of x?
Semenov [28]
The value of x is 5. Angle one and four are vertical. You can do this by writing 7x = 3x + 20. Isolate the variable by moving 3x to the other side. If you do this, 3x becomes negative, and you end up with 7x-3x = 20 --> 4x = 20.
x=5.
