A 5% raise means that you have to find out what 5% of 8 is and then add that to 8:

5/100 * 8 = 40/100 = $0.40

8 + 0.40 = $8.40.

Hey!


First we need to find out what is five percent of eight.

To do that let's start by turn five percent into a fraction of five over one hundred. Then we'll multiply that by eight over one. First multiply the numerators...

5 * 8 = 40

Now multiply the denominators...

100 * 1 = 100

So, now that everything is multiplied, we have our new fraction that is forty over one hundred. Now let's convert the fraction forty over one hundred into a decimal that is 0.40. Next, we'll convert 0.40 into the value of money...

0.40 = $0.40

Now, this means that the five percent raise will be forty cents. The last an final step is to add the raise to Shermillies current hourly pay.

$8.00 + $0.40 = $8.40

So, this means that Shermillies new hourly pay is $8.40.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

5.25

Step-by-step explanation:

If CD is perpendicular to AB, a right angle is formed by the perpendicular lines at the base of the triangle. If we know that AB is 3 we can divided that by two to use half the triangle and create a right trianle with a base of 1.5 (half of 3) a height of rad 3 now all we have to do is use P-Thags to find AC which is the hypotenuse. After doing 1.5 squared + rad 3 squared = ac squared you will get the answer of AC = 5.25

Q.1. Base and height if a parallelogram 12 cm and 8 cm respectively. Find its area.​
irakobra [83]

Answer:

Area of the parallelogram is 96 cm^{2}.

Step-by-step explanation:

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with parallel and equal length of opposite sides. The diagonals are perpendicular to each other.

Area of a parallelogram is given as,

Area = base x height

Thus for the given parallelogram with base 12 cm and height 8 cm, the area would be;

Area = base x height

        = 12 x 8

        = 96

Area = 96 cm^{2}

The area of the parallelogram is 96 cm^{2}.

How do I solve this equation
Anestetic [448]
-x - y = 8
2x - y = -1

Ok, we are going to solve this in 2 parts.  First we have to solve for one of the variables in one of the equation in terms of the other variable.  I like to take the easiest equation first and try to avoid fractions, so let's use the first equation and solve for x.

-x - y = 8      add y to each side
-x = 8 + y      divide by -1
x = -8 - y

So now we have a value for x in terms of y that we can use to substitute into the other equation.  In the other equation we are going to put -8 - y in place of the x.

2x - y = -1
2(-8 - y) - y = -1      multiply the 2 through the parentheses
-16 - 2y - y = -1      combine like terms
-16 - 3y = -1            add 16 to both sides
-3y = 15                   divide each side by -3
y = -5

Now we have a value for y.  We need to plug it into either of the original equations then solve for x.  I usually choose the most simple equation.

-x - y = 8
-x - (-5) = 8            multiply -1 through the parentheses
-x + 5 = 8                subtract 5 from each side
-x = 3                      divide each side by -1
x = -3

So our solution set is

(-3, -5)

That is the point on the grid where the 2 equations are equal, so that is the place where they intersect.
