Answer: 4,130

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this we have to multiply the attendance before the drop (x) by the percentage that assisted after the drop ( 1-0.08) . That expression must be equal to the attendance after the drop (3800)

Mathematically speaking:

8% = 8/100 = 0.08 (decimal form)

x (1-0.08)= 3800

x (0.92) =3800

Solving for x

x = 3800/0.92

x= 4,130

1 + (-5/8) = 3/8

Explanation: If the coffee wasn’t drank it would’ve been at fraction 1 (or 100%)

Since he drank 5/8 of it. The coffee left is now 1-(5/8)

But since the question has asked to give the equation in addition format. Put a plus sign in between the two.

Therefore,
1 + (-5/8)

Solve it,
= 1-(5/8)
= (8-5)/8
= 3/8

Hence the equation is:

1 + (-5/8) = 3/8.

The diagram is of a right triangle with

Hypotenuse = 233

One leg of the triangle = 105

Another Leg = <em>we have to find</em>

<em />

Pythagorean Theorem can be written as:

$\text{Leg}^2+\text{AnotherLeg}^2=\text{Hypotenuse}^2$

Thus, we can write:

$\begin{gathered} 105^2+\text{AnotherLeg}^2=233^2 \\ \text{AnotherLeg}^2=233^2-105^2 \\ \text{AnotherLeg}^2=43264 \\ \text{AnotherLeg}=\sqrt[]{43264} \\ \text{AnotherLeg}=208\text{ ft} \end{gathered}$

Thus,

The distance between the traffic lights on Walnut Street is:

208 feet
