Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of the wall is the sum of the areas of the different sections of the wall. The cost to paint it will be the product of the cost of a tin of paint and the number of tins required.
__
Here, the shape of the wall can be divided into two trapezoids and a rectangle. Each shape has a corresponding area formula. Left-to-right, their areas are ...
<u>Left Trapezoid</u>
A = 1/2(b1 +b2)h
A = 1/2(10 m +11 m)(4 m) = 42 m²
<u>Middle Rectangle</u>
A = LW
A = (13 m)(11 m) = 143 m²
<u>Right Trapezoid</u>
A = 1/2(b1 +b2)h
A = 1/2(11 m +8 m)(10 m) = 95 m²
<u>Wall Area</u>
The total area to be painted is the sum of the above areas:
total area = 42 m² +143 m² +95 m² = 280 m²
The area that needs to be painted is 280 m².
__
A tin of paint covers 15 m², so the number of tins needed is ...
(15 m²)t = 280 m²
t = 280/15 = 18 2/3 . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of t
We can only buy whole tins, so we need to buy 19 tins. Their cost will be ...
(£7 /tin)(19 tins) = £133
It will cost £133 to paint the wall.

Answer:
C / 20
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of students in the baking club = 10
Each student made 2 chocolate cakes
Total cakes = number of students × number of cakes per student
= 10 × 2
= 20
Total cups of flour used by 10 students = C cups
Amount of flour for one cake = Total cups of flour / Total cakes
= C / 20
The expression that represents the amount of flour for one cake = C / 20
