Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Well certainly friction alone will not hold it there.

c² = a² + b²

15² = 14² + b²

15² - 14² = b²

b² = 29

b = √29 = 5.385164... = 5.39 ft

In a group of students. 20 study Account. 21 Study mathematics 18 study history 7 study account only 10 study mathematics only 6
kirill [66]

Answer:

In total there are 50 students.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since in a group of students 20 study account, 21 study mathematics, 18 study history, 7 study account only, 10 study mathematics only, 6 study account and mathematics only and 3 study mathematics and history only, to determine how many student are there altogether the following calculation must be performed:

7 + 10 + 6 + 3 = 26

Account = 20 - 7 - 6 = 7

Mathematics = 21 - 10 - 6 - 3 = 2

History = 18 - 3 = 15

26 + 7 + 2 + 15 = X

50 = X

Therefore, in total there are 50 students.

Pens cost 15 pence each.
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

The amount the school pays is £32.40

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of each pen = 15 pence

The cost of each ruler = 20 pence

The number of pens bought by the school = 150

The number of rulers bought by the school = 90

The cost reduction (discount) on the items bought = 1/5

Therefore, we have;

The total cost of the pens bought by the school = 150 × 15 = 2250 = £22.50

The total cost of the rulers bought by the school = 90 × 20 = 1800 = £18.00

The total cost of the writing materials (rulers and pens) bought by the school = £22.50 + £18.00 = £40.50

The discount = 1/5 total cost reduction = 1/5×£40.50  = $8.10

The amount the school pays = The total cost of the writing materials - The discount

The amount the school pays = £40.50 - $8.10 =  £32.40

The amount the school pays =  £32.40.
