The base of the tent is 72 across the whole way and the hypotenuse is 45
so
to find the length of the stick call it x
half 72 to reduce it to the right hand side triangle
45²-36²=x²
x²=729
x=27 inches<span />
Let there be 2x science and 5x art books
<span>science books sold = 2x × 0.2 = 0.4x </span>
<span>science books unsold = 2x – 0.4x = 1.6x </span>
<span>art books sold = 5x × 0.2 = x </span>
<span>art books unsold = 5x – x = 4x </span>
<span>total books unsold = 1.6x + 4x = 5.6x </span>
<span>5.6x = 2240 </span>
<span>x = 400 </span>
<span>2x science = 800 </span>
<span>and 5x art books = 2000 </span>
X=11, set 10x+5x+15=180
15x+15=180, subtract 15 from 180= 165, then divide 165 by 15
Slope =1/2x hopefully this helps
