John needs 32 pens each pen costs 15p (British pence) John has £5 (British pound note)

Mathematics
1 answer:
Llana [10]3 years ago

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 100 pence to the British note.

Using that, we can multiply the 5 notes by 100 to get 500 pence.

If each pen is 15 pence, we can just divide 500 by 15 to get about 33 pens he can buy, meaning that he has just enough money for 32 pens and some change because 33 is greater than 32.

\bf X=X\qquad thus\qquad \implies \cfrac{24000}{a}=\cfrac{36000}{b}\implies \cfrac{24000}{a}=\cfrac{36000}{\boxed{3+a}} \\\\\\ (3+a)24000=36000a\implies \cfrac{3+a}{a}=\cfrac{36000}{24000}\implies \cfrac{3-a}{a}=\cfrac{3}{2} \\\\\\ 6-2a=3a\implies 6=5a\implies \cfrac{6}{5}=a\implies 1\frac{1}{5}=a\implies \blacktriangleright 1.2 = x\blacktriangleleft

\bf \stackrel{\textit{since we know that}}{b=3+a}\implies b=3+\cfrac{6}{5}\implies b=\cfrac{21}{5}\implies b=4\frac{1}{5}\implies \blacktriangleright b=4.2 \blacktriangleleft

What number will the function return if the input is 15.4?
wlad13 [49]

The rule of the function is to multiply the input by 3, since one yard is equal in length to three feet.

So, if the input is 15.4, the output will be

f(x)=3x \implies f(15.4)=3\cdot 15.4 = 46.2

A 29- m tall building casts a shadow. The distance from the top of the building to the tip of the shadow is 33 . Find the length
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

About 17.7 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be solved by imagining the triangle formed by the building and its shadow. The hypotenuse of the triangle, the distance from the tip of the building to the tip of the shadow, is 34 meters, and one of the legs is 29 meters. Therefore, we can use the Pythagorean theorem to find that the third side is . Hope this helps!

How can I solve these problems
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Easy the three angles of a triangle equal 180 degrees

so 60+75 = 135 --> 180-135=

1) 145

2) 35

3)  no since the tops a 100 and its a Isosceles triangle two corners left it be 40 for each corner

4) 34 for both x's cause 34+34+112. = 180

5) 180- 120= 60- 10 = 50/4 is (12.5)= x

6) x = 15 cause it be 120- 60 to get 60
