8 books cost 11.20. Find the cost of 5 books

Mathematics

Oliga [24]3 years ago

Answer:

The cost of 5 books is $7

Step-by-step explanation:

If there are 8 books and you need to find the cost of 5, you need to first find the cost for one book.

If 8 books cost 11.20.

11.20 ÷ 8 = 1.40

1.40 is the cost of one book

1.40 x 5 = 7

So the cost of 5 books is $7

I tried my best to explain

First of all we have to find the cost of a book then multiply it by 5 :

$ 11.20 ÷ 8 = $ 1.4

$ 1.4 × 5 = $ 7

Thus 5 books have a cost of $ 7 .

Answer ASAP<br><br> Find the area
slavikrds [6]

In this problem, you are asked to find the area of the trapezoid. The formula in finding the area of the trapezoid is:

A = [(a + b)/2] x h

Where a = base 1

             b = base 2

             h = height

Substituting the given measurements to the formula:

A = [(1.7 m + 6.7 m) / 2] x 5 m

A = (8.4 m / 2) x 5 m

A = 4.2 m x 5 m

A = 21 m^2

Therefore, the area of the trapezoid is 21 square meters.

Review the steps of the proof of the identity
koban [17]

Answer:

step 2

and then also in step 3 compensating the error in step 2

Step-by-step explanation:

I think I just answered this for another post.

sin(a - b) = sin(a)cos(b) - cos(a)sin(b)

so, step 1 is correct :

sin(A - 3pi/2) = sin(A)cos(3pi/2) - cos(A)sin(3pi/2)

but step 2 suddenly and incorrectly switched that central "-" to a "+".

yes, sin(3pi/2) = -1, but that is still an explicit factor in step 2. so it was not used to flip the central operation from subtraction to addition, and therefore this change was a mistake.

then, in step 3, another error was made by just ignoring the "-" sign of "-1" and still keeping the central "+" operation. this error compensated for the error in step 2 bringing us back by pure chance to the right result.

A rectangular prism has a volume of 19 cm if the length of the prism is tripled and the other dimensions stay the same what is t
eimsori [14]

Answer:

The volume of the new prism is three times the volume of the old prism

Step-by-step explanation:

To carry out this problem we have to invent 3 variables that represent length, width and height

w = width

h = height

l = length = 19cm

Now we have to do the equation that represents the calculation of the volume of the prism

v = w * h * l

v = w * h * 19

v = 19hw

assuming the length is tripled

v = w * h * 3l

v = w * h * 3 * 19

v = 57wh

To know the volume of the new prism with respect to the previous one, we simply divide the volume of the new prism by the previous one.

57hw / 19hw = 3

The volume of the new prism is three times the volume of the old prism
