Answer:there are 21 twenties and 8 fifties in the drawer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of bills that are twenties in the drawer.

Let y represent the number of bills that are fifties in the drawer.

The cash drawer contains 29 bills. All twenties and fifties. This means that

x + y = 29

If the total value of the bills is $820, it means that

20x + 50y = 820 - - - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting x = 29 - y

20(29 - y) + 50y = 820

580 - 20y + 50y = 820

- 20y + 50y = 820 - 580

30y = 240

y = 240/30 = 8

x = 29 - y = 29 - 8

x = 21

Answer:

There are 21 twenties and 8 fifties in the drawer.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved by a system of equations.

I am going to say that:

x is the number of twenties

y is the number of fifties.

A cash drawer contains 29 bills.

This means that x + y = 29.

The total value of the bills is $820.

This means that 20x + 50y = 820.

So

x + y = 29

20x + 50y = 820

From the first equation, x = 29 - y. So:

20x + 50y = 820

20(29 - y) + 50y = 820

580 - 20y + 50y = 820

30y = 240

y = 8

And

x = 29 - y = 29 - 8 = 21

There are 21 twenties and 8 fifties.

Does anyone know the answer to this ?

Answer:

1595 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is obtained by adding the areas of sectors of several circles.

1. Think of the rope being vertical going up from the corner where it is tied. It goes up along the 10-ft side. Now think of the length of the rope being a radius of a circle, rotate it counterclockwise until it is horizontal and is on top of the bottom 20-ft side. That area is 3/4 of a circle of radius 24.5 ft.

2. With the rope in this position, along the bottom 20-ft side, 4.5 ft of the rope stick out the right side of the barn. That amount if rope allows for a 1/4 circle of 4.5-ft radius on the right side of the barn.

3. With the rope in the position of 1. above, vertical and along the 10-ft left side, 14.5 ft of rope extend past the barn's 10-ft left wall. That extra 14.5 ft of rope are now the radius of a 1/4 circle along the upper 20-ft wall.

The area is the sum of the areas described above in numbers 1., 2., and 3.

total area = area 1 + area 2 + area 3

area of circle = (pi)r^2

total area = 3/4 * (pi)(24.5 ft)^2 + 1/4 * (pi)(4.5 ft)^2 + 1/4 * (pi)(14.5 ft)^2

total area = 1414.31 ft^2 + 15.90 ft^2 + 165.13 ft^2

total area = 1595.34 ft^2
