Answer:

n/5 and 1800 nails

Step-by-step explanation:

The algebraic expression n/10, where n is the number of boards, represents the number of times he gets 2 free boxes of nails. So 2(n/10), or n/5, is the number of boxes, and 100(n/5), or 20n, is the number of nails. Substituting 90 in for n, Peter will get 1,800 nails.

Answer the following.
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

40000

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple interest (I) is calculated as

I = \frac{PRT}{100}

P is the amount borrowed , R is the interest and T the time in years

Here I = 2000 , R = 5 and T = 1 with P to be found , then

2000 = \frac{P(5)(1)}{100} ( multiply both sides by 100 )

5P = 200000 ( divide both sides by 5 )

P = 40000

Given:

The figure of two quadrilaterals.

In ABCD,AB=18,BC=20,CD=22,AD=24

In EFGH,EF=27,FG=30,GH=34, EH=36

To find:

Whether the figures are congruent, similar or neither.

Solution:

Ratio of corresponding sides are:

\dfrac{AB}{EF}=\dfrac{18}{27}

\dfrac{AB}{EF}=\dfrac{2}{3}

Similarly,

\dfrac{BC}{FG}=\dfrac{20}{30}

\dfrac{BC}{FG}=\dfrac{2}{3}

\dfrac{CD}{GH}=\dfrac{22}{34}

\dfrac{CD}{GH}=\dfrac{11}{17}

And,

\dfrac{AD}{EH}=\dfrac{24}{36}

\dfrac{AD}{EH}=\dfrac{2}{3}

Clearly, \dfrac{AB}{EF}=\dfrac{BC}{FG}=\dfrac{AD}{EH}\neq \dfrac{CD}{GH}.

All corresponding sides are not proportional.

Therefore, the figures are neither similar nor congruent. Hence, third option is correct.
