He spend: 1440*2.5=3600 
he earn: 0.25*1440*12=4320
[because he sells 0.25/each and buy 1440 dozen so 1440*12]

4320-3600=720

an isosceles triangle has congruent sides of 20cm. the base is 10cm. find the height of the triangle.​
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

\large\boxed{A_\triangle=25\sqrt{15}\ cm^2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the picture.

The formula of an area of a triangle:

A_\triangle=\dfrac{bh}{2}

<em>b</em><em> - base</em>

<em>h</em><em> - height</em>

<em />

We need a length of a height.

Use the Pythagorean theorem:

leg^2+leg^2=hypotenuse^2

We have:

leg=5,\ leg=h,\ hypotenuse=20

Substitute:

5^2+h^2=20^2

25+h^2=400             <em>subtract 25 from both sides</em>

h^2=375\to h=\sqrt{375}\\\\h=\sqrt{(25)(15)}\\\\h=\sqrt{25}\cdot\sqrt{15}\\\\h=5\sqrt{15}\ cm

Calculate the area:

A_\triangle=\dfrac{(10)(5\sqrt{15})}{2}=\dfrac{50\sqrt{15}}{2}=25\sqrt{15}\ cm^2

Z varies jointly with x, and y, and z=7 when x= 2, y= 2
fomenos

Answer:

56

Step-by-step explanation:

Complete question:

Z varies jointly with x and y , x=2 and y=2, z=7. Find z when x=4 and y=8 using joint variation . (I need the problem worked out step by step)

If z varies jointly with x, and y, this is expressed as;

z = kxy

If z=7 when x= 2, y= 2

7  = k(2)(2)

7 = 4k

k = 7/4

To get z when x= 4 and y = 8

z = kxy

z =7/4 (4)(8)

z = 7*8

z = 56

Hence the value of z is 56
