You will need to paint 9 faces in order to earn $15. I solved this problem by setting up an equation using the given information. The equation is 15=3x - 12. 15 is the goal amount of profits. 3x represents $3 per person/face charge. I subtracted $12 from that because it is the money used to buy paint supplies. After that, i solved for x. The answer is 9 faces. Hope this helped you! I included a picture of my work :))

Alik [6]

Answer:

$59.40

Step-by-step explanation:

8% is equal to 0.08

since you are adding the tax to the original cost you will multiply 55 by 1.08 to get the cost of the shoes plus the tax.

In a right triangle has one leg that measures 11 in and the hypotenuse measures 47 in, what is the length of the other leg?
Wewaii [24]

Using the Pythagorean theorem:


47 ^2 = 11^2 + x^2

2209 = 121 + x^2

Subtract 131 from both sides

2088 = x^2

Take the square root of both sides

X = sqrt(2088)

Simplify

X = 6sqrt(58)
