Answer:
The correct answer is C. 8.15%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that Natasha is a bank teller, and she received a 5% raise last year and a subsequent merit raise of 3% this year, to determine what is the accumulative or compound effect of these two raises as a percentage, the following calculation must be performed, assuming, as an example, that her starting salary was $ 2,000:
(2,000 x 1.05) x 1.03 = X
2,100 x 1.03 = X
2,163 = X
2,000 = 100
2,163 = X
2,163 x 100 / 2,000 = X
216,300 / 2,000 = X
108.15 = X
108.15 - 100 = 8.15
Thus, the compound effect of both salary increases is a salary increase of 8.15%.
P=2l+2w
Since it is given that P=26m, length is 5 more than its width (w+5), we'll work it out in the perimeter formula.
26=2(w+5)+2w
26=2w+10+2w
26=4w+10
4w=26-10
4w=16
w=4
Thus the width is 4m. Let's find the length.
l=w+5
l=4+5
l=9
The length of a pen is 9m.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of the big triangle is 1/2 b h = 1/2*6*(12^2 = 6^2 + x^2)
that ends up being 
the small triangle are needs to be subtracted....
that is the length of the unknown side...
1/2 B * h of that triangle get you to 
just subtract the two areas
You said x + 2/5 = 12
It might be easier to handle if we use the decimal for 2/5.
x + 0.4 = 12
Subtract 0.4 from each side: x = 11.6
That's all there is to it. I'm sorry I can't make it
more complicated for you.
