120 adults and 48 children attended the dance.
1520 ÷ 10 = 152
1520 ÷ 20 = 76
1520 ÷ 40 = 38
Anything multiplied by zero is zero
The image of the given scenario is attached below.
A right angled triangle is formed, with one angle equal to 27 degrees. The perpendicular side is 155 and we are to find the length of guy wire which makes the hypotenuse of the right angled triangle.
Using the formula of sine, we can write:
Rounding to nearest whole number, the length of the guy wire that must be attached is 341 feet.
N = d - 5
2n/(d + 16) = n/d - 1/3 n/d
2n/(d + 16) = 2/3 n/d Divide by 2n
1 / (d + 16) = 1/3 d
Here's the tricky part.
d + 16 = 3d the two denominators are equal. the numerators are both 1.
16 = 2d
d = 8
so the numerator is d - 5
n = 8 - 5
n = 3
Let's see if it checks out.
n = 3
d = 8
2*3 = 6
8 + 16 = 24
New fraction 6/24 = 1/4
(3/8 - 1/3 ) = 1/8
3/8 - 1/8 = 1/4 so it checks with the original conditions put on it.
