Step-by-step explanation:
The length of the support cable is about 29 feet.
If you sketch out the question, you will see that it will form a right triangle with the cable as the hypotenuse.
Just set up and use the Pythagorean Theorem.
15^2 + 25^2 = c^2
850 = c^2
29.15 = c
Answer:
16 children
Step-by-step explanation:
80% of 20 children comes out to 16 children who are of age 5.
If desired, rewrite "80%" as "0.80" and use that 0.80 as the multiplier of 20:
0.80(20 children) = 16 children.
