The complete question in the attached figure

step 1
find the area of the wall

[area of the wall]=[area of rectangle]+[area of triangle]
[area of the wall]=[3*2]+[3*1/2]----> 7.5 m²

1 m²-------> 10.7639 ft²

area of the wall------> 7.5*10.7639------> 80.73 ft²

we know that
1 can of paint covers an area of --------> 24 ft²
x---------------------------------------------> 80.73 ft²
x=80.73/24---------> x=3.36 can of paints

the answer is
T<span>he fewest number of cans is 4</span>

You pawn a guitar and receive $880. One month later, you get the guitar back by paying $1250. If this is simple interest, then w
Lemur [1.5K]
Interest=1250-880=370
I=PRT
P=principal
r=rate in deicmal
t=time in years

1 month so t=1/12
P=880
I=370

370=880*r*1/12
370=220/3r
times both sides by 3
1110=220r
divdie both sides by 220
5.04545=r

Answer:

3 {w}^{5}  \times  {7w}^{5}  \\  \\  = (3 \times 7)( {w}^{5}  \times  {w}^{5} ) \\  \\  = 21( {w}^{5}  \times  {w}^{5} )

from law of indices:

{x}^{a}  +  {x}^{b}  =  {x}^{(a + b)}

therefore:

= 21 \{ {w}^{(5 + 5)}  \} \\  \\  ={ \boxed{ 21 {w}^{10} }}

a ball is dropped from a height of 20 feet above the ground. The velocity v(s) of the ball after it has travelled a distance of
Lana71 [14]
<h2>We know that</h2>

The initial height is 20 feet above the ground.

The function to model the velocity is

v(s)=60s

Where <em>s</em> represents the distance in feet.

Mathematically, this function has all real numbers as a domain. However, that will no make sense for this situation, because it would use negative numbers for the distance <em>s</em> which does not make sense.

Therefore, the domain, in this case, would be all real numbers greater than or equal to zero, but less than or equal to 20.

<em>The reason for this domain is that the ball will go from 20 feet above the ground to zero feet on the ground.</em>

<em />

Using interval notation would be
