Answer:

In bold below.

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) The largest angle is opposite the largest side.

So by the Cosine Rule:

8^2 = 4^2 + 6^2 - 2*4*6 cos x

cos x =  (8^2 - 4^2 - 6^2) / (-2*4* 6)

= -0.25.

x = 104.48 degrees.

(b) Area of the triangle = 1/2 * 4 * 6 sin 104.48

= 11.62

= 3 √15.

(c)  The shortest altitude will have the longest sides as the base.

Area = 1/2 * altitude * base

3√15 = 1/2 * 8 * a

a = 3√15 / 4 cm

= 0.75√15 cm.

2.<br><br> Describe how Jennifer fell into a cycle of debt using<br> payday loans.
Shtirlitz [24]

Since Jennifer needs to settle her monthly rent and decides to obtain a payday loan, <u>she will certainly fall into a </u><u>cycle of debt</u><u> because of its recurring nature.</u>

<h3>What is a Payday Loan?</h3>

Payday Loans are short-term, low-balance cash advances usually offered to individuals with cash shortages at usury rates (high interest) because of the unsecured nature of the loans.

<h3>Data and Calculations:</h3>

Amount of Payday Loan taken = $375

Repayment amount = $500

Interest expense = $125

Rate of interest = 33.33% ($125/$375 x 100)

Thus, by opting for a payday loan to settle her monthly rent instead of increasing her earnings, Jennifer entered into a cycle of debt.
