Answer:

m =-6

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for the unknown variable, m, we have to get m by itself. Perform the opposite of what is being done to the equation.

-8m-9=39

9 is being subtracted from-8m, so add 9 to both sides. Addition is the opposite of subtraction.

-8m-9+9=39+9

-8m=39+9

-8m=48

-8 and m are being multiplied. Divide both sides by -8, because division is the opposite of multiplication

-8m/-8=48/-8

m=48/-8

m= -6

A shape is made of 12 right triangles of equal size. Each right triangle has a base of 4cm and a height of 5cm. What is the tota

Natalka [10]

Answer: 120 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by finding the area of one triangle

The formula for finding the area of a triangle is $A=\frac{hb}{2}$

Where

A is the area

h is the height (5 for this)

and b is the base (4 for this)

Let's sub in our values and solve.

$A=\frac{(5)(4)}{2}\\A=\frac{20}{2}\\A=10$

Since there are 12 triangles in the shape we must multiply our area for one triangle by 12 to find the total area of the shape

12×10=120
