Mathematics

6 0

Answer:

20 or 21 stakes

Step-by-step explanation:

It would be 20 if you were not able to use the extra wood after cutting two 5.5 foot long segments from each lumber. If you can use the extra 1 foot from each lumber then you would have an extra 10 feet of lumber which you could get one 5.5 foot long stake from.

James has saved $24.60. Dillon saved 2/3 of
stepan [7]

James saved 24.60 dollars, and we know Dillon saved 2/3 of the amount James saved.

Dillon's amount: 2/3 * 24.60 = 16.40

So we have two amounts:

James = 24.60 dollars

Dillon = 16.40

Mara = 16.40 * 2 = 32.80 dollars.

The question is asking for the total, so we add them together:

24.60 + 16.40 + 32.80 = 73.8 dollars.

A 100-square grid has 70 shaded squares. Explain how you could express this model as a fraction, percent, and decimal.
slava [35]
The fraction of squares shaded to total squares is 70/100  or 7/10
With a percent, 70% of all of the squares are shaded
With a decimal, there are 0.7 shaded blocks for every total block, so it is 0.7

What is the tangent ratio for angle b?
Elis [28]
Hi there!

Tangent is a trigonometry ratio, and it is the value of the side opposite the angle over the side adjacent to the angle. 

The side that is opposite angle B is side CA which is equal to 2. 
The side that is adjacent to angle B is side CB which is equal to 1. 

Therefore, the tangent ratio for angle B is 2/1.
(The adjacent side cannot be side BA because it is the hypotenuse.)

Hope this helps!! :)
