melomori [17]

Answer:

Warren paid $2.5 for the brush, $15 for the sketchbook and $20 for the paint set.

Step-by-step explanation:

If Warren went to the store with $41.5 and left with only $4 then the total amount he spent on the store was:

total spent = 41.5 - 4 = 37.5

Since he bought a brush, a sketchbook and a paint set we have:

brush + sketchbook + paint = 37.5

The prices of each item are related in the following manner:

brush = (1/6)*sketchbook

sketchbook = (3/4)*paint

brush = (1/6)*(3/4)*paint = (3/24)*paint = (1/8)*paint

Using these expressions on the one that represents the total value we will be abble to have only one variable, paint. We have:

(1/8)*paint + (3/4)*paint + paint = 37.5

(1/8)*paint + (6/8)*paint + (8/8)*paint = 37.5

(15/8)*paint = 37.5

paint = 37.5/(15/8) = 37.5*(8/15) = 20

brush = (1/8)*paint = (1/8)*20 = 2.5

sketchbook = (3/4)*paint = (3/4)*20 = 15

Warren paid $2.5 for the brush, $15 for the sketchbook and $20 for the paint set.

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer: the top of the ladder is at 24 feet from the ground

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean theorem to solve for the unknown, since we notice that the ladder is the hypotenuse of a right angle triangle formed by the horizontal distance from the wall to the base of the ladder, and the height of the top of the ladder against the wall. We need to find one of the triangle's sides given its hypotenuse and the other side, so we use the formula:
