Answer:

10 gallons of paint

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the surface area of the monument.

From inspection, this is made up of 4 congruent rectangles and 4 congruent triangles.

Area of a rectangle = width x length

Therefore, area of one rectangle of the monument:

13 x 40 = 520 ft²

Area of triangle = 1/2 x base x height

Therefore, area of one triangle of the monument:

1/2 x 13 x 11 = 71.5 ft²

Therefore, total surface area of the monument

= 4 x SA of rectangle + 4 x SA of triangle

= 4 x 520 + 4 x 71.5

= 2080 + 286

= 2366 ft²

We are told that one gallon of paint can cover 239 ft², and that paint can only be bought by the gallon.

Divide the total surface area of the monument by the area one gallon of paint can cover to calculate how many cans of paint are needed.

2366 ÷ 239 = 9.89958159...

Therefore, 10 gallons of paint must be bought (since we need to round up as paint can only be bought by the gallon).

10. Make q the subject of the formula 5(q + p) = 4 + 8p
vichka [17]

The formula subject to q is \frac{4+3p}{5}

Explanation:

The given formula is 5(q+p)=4+8 p

We need to determine the formula subject to q.

<u>The formula subject to q:</u>

The formula subject to q can be determined by solving the formula for q.

Let us solve the formula.

Thus, we have;

5q+5p=4+8p

Subtracting both sides by 5p, we have;

5q=4+3p

Dividing both sides by 5, we get;

q=\frac{4+3p}{5}

Thus, the formula subject to q is \frac{4+3p}{5}

Taya2010 [7]
Divide 6 by \frac{3}{4}

\frac{6}{1} ÷ \frac{3}{4}

Change \frac{3}{4} to a reciprocal

\frac{6}{1} × \frac{4}{3} = \frac{24}{3} 

Simplify and your answer is 8
