Answer:

$28

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know the shirt is $20, and the owner is raising the price by 40%. That means we are adding $20 to 40% of the cost of the shirt

$20 + 40%

So we have to figure out how much 40% of $20 is. To do that, you can use fraction or decimal type

40% is the same thing as 40/100 or 0.4. So you will multiply either of them by $20 to find how much 40% of $20 is.

40/100 * 20 = 8

0.4 * 20 = 8

Now we know that 40% of $20 is $8. So now we will add 8$ to $20

20 + 8 = 28

The new price will be $28

40%=0.4

0.4(20)
8(markup)

Shirt price=$20+ $8

New price=$28

1)

you can think of the cup's sleeve as a cylinder with say a height of 4 and a diameter of 5. Now, if the diameter is 5 inches, the radius is half that, or 2.5,

$\bf \textit{total surface area of a cylinder}\\\\
s=2\pi r(h+r)\quad 
\begin{cases}
r=2.5\\
h=4
\end{cases}\implies s=2\pi (2.5)(4+2.5)
\\\\\\
s=5\pi (6.5)\implies s=32.5\pi$

2)

same here, you can think of the tire as a cylinder, since it's a cylindrical tire, with a height of 8 and a diameter of 29, therefore a radius of 14.5,

$\bf \textit{total surface area of a cylinder}\\\\
s=2\pi r(h+r)\quad 
\begin{cases}
r=14.5\\
h=8
\end{cases}\implies s=2\pi (14.5)(8+14.5)
\\\\\\
s=29\pi (22.5)\implies s=652.5\pi$

now, that's how much spaces it covers one time only, so 5 times around is just 5 times that much.

3)

same goes for the mugs,

$\bf \textit{total surface area of a cylinder}\\\\
s=2\pi r(h+r)\quad 
\begin{cases}
r=2\\
h=3.75
\end{cases}\implies s=2\pi (2)(3.75+2)
\\\\\\
s=4\pi (5.75)\implies s=\stackrel{one~mug}{23\pi }\qquad\qquad \stackrel{4~mugs}{4\cdot 23\pi }$

4)

and the same goes for the can of peas, which is also a cylinder,

a)

$\bf \textit{total surface area of a cylinder}\\\\
s=2\pi r(h+r)\quad 
\begin{cases}
r=3.8\\
h=10
\end{cases}\implies s=2\pi (3.8)(10+3.8)
\\\\\\
s=7.6\pi (13.8)\implies s=101.08\pi$

b)

the label is only the sides, and thus only the lateral area,

$\bf \textit{\underline{lateral} surface area of a cylinder}\\\\
s=2\pi rh\quad 
\begin{cases}
r=3.8\\
h=10
\end{cases}\implies s=2\pi (3.8)(10)\implies s=76\pi$

The fifth-grade classes at Brookfield School used five identical buses to go on a field trip. •There were a total of 40 seats on

Eva8 [605]

First things first, you need to figure out the amount of passengers on the fifth bus.

Solution:
40 x 4
-- - = 32 passengers
1 x 5
*The fifth bus has 32 people.
You can now figure out the total number of passengers in all of the buses.

(40 x 4) + 32 = 192
*Overall, all 5 buses have a total of 192 passengers.
Since you have the total number of passengers, you can now figure out the numbers of adults who went on the field trip, which is 1/8 of all the passengers.

Solution:
192 x 1
----- - = 24 passengers
1 x 8

The final answer is: 24 adults went on the field trip.

The answer is 1 1/40 as a mixed fraction! An improper fraction would be 41/40! Hope this picture helps!
