Volgvan2 years ago

Answer:

2772

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of books that will not be returned are 45%=45/100=9/20, multiplied by 5040. We multiply it by 5040 because 45%(5040)=45%*5040.

45/100*(5040)=9/20*(5040)=9/2*504=9*252=2268, so the answer is 2268, right?

Wrong! 2268 is the amount of books that will NOT be returned on the due date. We need the amount of books that WILL be returned on the due date. So, the real answer is 5040-2268=2772.

So, the answer is \boxed{2772} and we're done!

A cottage has a gable roof. To the nearest foot, how wide is the cottage?A. 12 ftB. 24 ftC. 35 ftD. 70 ft
Sergio [31]

Answer: the answer is B: 24ft

Step-by-step explanation: To find how wide the triangle is identify your angles. You have a right angle which is equal to 90° and an angle that measures 46°. Add up both of these angles and you'll get 136°. A triangle can only have three angles that add up to 180. So subtract 180 and 136 you get 44. Multiply the hypotenuse by sin(46) to get the length of the side facing the opposite way of the angle that measures 44°. You will get 11.8 which is about 12. The other triangle is a congruent triangle meaning that it's angles and sides are the same. Add both 12's up and you have 24ft as your width for the cottage.

John read the first 114 pages of the novel, which was 3 pages less than 1/3 of the novel.
sp2606 [1]
If they're asking you how many pages are in the novel, there would be 351. To find this, you just add 3 to 114, which is 117 and multiply it by 3, which is 351. If they're asking something else, let me know and I'll try to help. I hope this helps!
