Answer:

Perimeter = 21.58 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a polygon = Sum of measures of all sides of the polygon

Perimeter of the quadrilateral LEAP = PL + AE + EL + LP

                                                            = 4.47 + 4.47 + 6.32 + 6.32

                                                            = 21.58 units

[If the distances between two point are not given, use the formula to calculate the distance between two points (x_1, y_1) and (x_2,y_2)

Distance = \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}]

A store owner paid $15 dollars for a book. she marked up the price of the book by 40% to determine it's selling price.
Tcecarenko [31]
A) $15 ÷ 40% =
15×.4= 6
15+6= 21

B) $38 × .25=9.5
38-9.5=28.50

28.50×.06=1.71
28.50+1.17=30.21

I think this is how you do it. would wait for other answers as well to double check.
