We are told that $168.00 represents 8% of the contract price; therefore,we know that

original price *( 8/100) = $168.00

Now, writing out "original price" is a bit space-consuming; therefore, we will just rename it and say

original price = OP

Then, our equation above can be written as

OP\times\frac{8}{100}=168

We solve for OP (original price) by multiplying both sides by 100 and then dividing by 8. This gives us

OP=\frac{100}{8}\times168\textcolor{#FF7968}{\therefore OP=2100}\text{\textcolor{#FF7968}{.}}

Hence, the original contract price is $2100.

Please help if you can ik it is Pythagorean theorem
kicyunya [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

A = (1/2)bh ---> h = 2A/b = 2(12 cm^2)/(5 cm) = 4.80 cm

---> x^2 = h^2 + (b/2)^2

= (4.8 cm)^2 + (2.5)^2

= 23.04 cm^2 + 6.25 cm^2

or x = 5.41 cm

Therefore, the perimeter P is

P = 2x + b = 2(5.41 cm) + 5 cm = 15.8 cm
