Answer:

The new amount is 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

80% of 40 is 32, so subtract 32 from 40 to get 8.

Answer: So we'll use trig to solve this because it's a right triangle. The hypotenuse is the ladder (h) and the two smaller sides are the ground and the vertical wall (w).

That angle ladder makes with the ground = €

SOH: sin € = opposite/hypotenuse

No the ladder won't be safe!!!

Now let's make it safe:

The ladder's length (w) is constant, so stays 12

So now let's ask in an inequality what height will be safe (75° or less)

what does that mean?? well as long as you put the ladder against the wall so that the height from ground to top of the ladder is < 11.6 ft!!

Hope that helps! :-D

Pete took a sample of moviegoers to see how many are seeing a comedy. Sample size: 175 Number seeing a comedy: 42 Population: 1,

Anastaziya [24]

Answer: Part A : c = n.p

Part B = 366 moviegoers

Step-by-step explanation: In part A, to predict the number of moviegoers, we have to find the proportion of the sample that does the activity, which will called p. Since p is a percentage, to determine how many moviegoers are seeing a comedy, you multiply it by the sample size, n.

Therefore: c = n.p

For part B, based on the the sample:

p = $\frac{42}{175}$ = 0.24
