8 books cost 11.20. Find the cost of 5 books

First of all we have to find the cost of a book then multiply it by 5 :

$ 11.20 ÷ 8 = $ 1.4

$ 1.4 × 5 = $ 7

Thus 5 books have a cost of $ 7 .

The cost of 5 books is $7

Step-by-step explanation:

If there are 8 books and you need to find the cost of 5, you need to first find the cost for one book.

If 8 books cost 11.20.

11.20 ÷ 8 = 1.40

1.40 is the cost of one book

1.40 x 5 = 7

So the cost of 5 books is $7

I tried my best to explain

step-by-step explanation :

we know that

the measurement of the outer angle is the semi-difference of the arcs which comprises

in this problem

m< xzy is the outer angle

substitute the values

the measure of angle xoy is equal to

> by central angle

substitute the value

answer:   28.56 feet (approx)

step-by-step explanation:

since, triangle abc has measure of angle c equal to 55 degrees, measure of angle abc equal to 90 degrees, and length of bc equal to 20 feet.

we have to find out the measurement of segment ab.

therefore, tan 55° =

but bc = 20 feet.

⇒ tan 55 ° =  

⇒ ab = 20 × tan 55 °

⇒ ab = 20 × 1.42814800674

⇒ ab = 28.5629601348   ≈ 28.56 feet
