Answer:
3f - 8 = number of pennies
Step-by-step explanation:
3f - 8 = number of pennies
To solve your question, you add all of the measurements together, set them equal to 180, solve for x, and plug x back in for whichever angle they are asking for; in this case, they want angle R
7x + 12x + 20 + 20x - 35 = 180
39x - 15 = 180
39x = 180 + 15
39x = 195
x = 5
Angle R = 12x + 20
12(5) + 20
60 + 20
80
Option C is your answer.
A) If you cut off half the peaks (3.5 ft down from the top), they will just fill the valleys making a rectangle 18.5 ft by 30 ft. The area is the product of these dimensions.
A = (18.5 ft)*(30 ft) = 555 ft²
b) To determine the number of quarts of paint required, divide this number by 90 ft². Since you cannot buy a partial quart, if there is any remainder, use the next higher integer number of quarts.
555/90 ≈ 6.2 so Pat should buy 7 quarts of paint.
