Answer:

21 windows

Step-by-step explanation:

collen family plans to paint the windows of their house. her father will paint twice as many windows as her mother, and collen and her 2 brothers will paint an equal number of the rest of the windows. Colleen decided to do her own share and her mother's share and paints 7 window, which is one less than her father's share. how many windows are in their house?

Answer: Let the number of window Collen father would paint be a while that of her mother be b. Since her father will paint twice as many window as her mother, therefore the number of windows painted by the father a = 2b

Let the number of windows that would be needed to be painted each by Colleen and her 2 brothers be c because they would paint the equal number of windows.

The total number of windows to be painted = 2b + b + c + c + c = 3b + 3c = 3(b + c).

Collen painted 7 windows as her mother and her own share which is one less than the fathers share. Therefore b + c = 7.

Also the fathers share a = 2b = 7 + 1 = 8 windows. Therefore b = 4 which is the mother share

Therefore the total number of windows = 3(b + c) = 3(7) = 21 windows

3b + 3c =  21

3(4) + 3c = 21

12 + 3c = 21

3c = 21 - 12

3c = 9

c = 3 which is collen and her brothers share

djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

Total = \$103.20

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Amount =\$160

D_1 = 30\% --- first discount

D_2 = 10\% --- second discount

Sales\ Tax = 7.5\%

Required

Determine the amount paid

First, we add the total discount:

D = D_1  + D_2

D = 30\% + 10\%

D = 40\%

If she got a discount of 40%, then she paid 60% (i.e. 100% - 40%)

So:

Amount = 60\% * \$160

Amount = \$96

Calculate the sales tax

Sales\ Tax = 7.5\% * \$96

Sales\ Tax = \$7.2

Total = \$96 + \$7.2

Total = \$103.20

4c^2-8c-1=0 complete the square round to nearest hundredth
olga55 [171]
Move constant to other side
add 1
4c^2-8c=1
divide by 4 to make leading coeficient 1
c^2-2c=1/4
take 1/2 of linear coeficient and square it
-2/2=-1, (-1)^2=1
add that to both sides
c^2-2c+1=1/4+1
factor perfect squaer and add
(c-1)^2=5/4
square root both sides
c-1=+/-(√5)/2
add 1
c=1+/-(√5)/2

c=2.12 or -0.12

The angle of depression from the top of a building to a point
AleksandrR [38]

The distance between point on the ground from the top of the building is 396 meter, if the building is 280 m high and The angle of depression from the top of a building to a point  on the ground is 45 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is,

                 The angle of depression from the top of a building to a point  on the ground is 45 degrees.

                 Height of the building is 280 meter.

Step: 1

                 Given diagram is a right angled diagram,

                 For right angle triangle,

                              90° = 45° + 45°    

                                     = 90°  

                 Trignometric ratio,

                            sin ∅ = \frac{Opp}{Hyp}....................(1)

                For the above ratio take the bottom angle, that is angle of depression from the top of a building to a point  on the ground is 45 degrees.

                 Where, Opp side = 280 meters

                               Hyp side = x

                                           ∅ = 45°

                 Equation (1) becomes,

                                  sin 45° = \frac{280}{x}

                          0.70710678 =  \frac{280}{x}

                                            x =  \frac{280}{0.70710678}

                                            x = 395.979

               Distance between point on the ground from the top of the building,  x ≅ 396 meter                                                

                Trignometric ratio,

                                     cos ∅ = \frac{Adj}{Hyp}

                                   Cos 45 = \frac{Adj}{396}

                                         Adj = (0.70710678)(396)

              Bottom length, Adj = 280 meter

Result:

           The distance between point on the ground from the top of the building is 396 meter.

Determine if the following triangles are congruent by SSS or SAS.
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

They are congruent by SAS (Side Angle SIde) test or congruence criterion

Since,

In triangle ABD and triangle BCD

AB = BC (Given)

BD = DB(Common Side)

Angle ABD = Angle CBD

Therefore triangle ABD and triangle BCD by SAS (Side Angle SIde) test or congruence criterion
