\bf \textit{Law of Cosines}\\ \quad \\
c^2 = {{ a}}^2+{{ b}}^2-(2{{ a}}{{ b}})cos(C)\implies 
c = \sqrt{{{ a}}^2+{{ b}}^2-(2{{ a}}{{ b}})cos(C)}\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
\textit{so, let's find the missing side}
\\\\\\
c=\sqrt{2.7^2+3.4^2-2(2.7)(3.4)cos(40^o)}
\\\\\\
c=\sqrt{4.78542402433556327368}\implies c\approx 2.187561204706182220

or we can round it, to say c = 2.19, so  hmm that's the missing side
now, we use Heron's Formula, which uses all 3 sides only

\bf \textit{Heron's Area Formula}\\\\
A=\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}\qquad 
\begin{cases}
a=2.7\\
b=3.4\\
c\approx 2.19\\\\
s=\cfrac{a+b+c}{2}
\end{cases}

and that'd be the area of it

Answer:

The area of the triangle is 2.97 ft².

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the triangle having sides 2.7 feet, 3.4 feet and the inclusive angle 40°.

We will find the length of the third side.

The law of cosines is given by c^{2}=a^{2}+b^{2}-2ab\cos \theta.

Substituting the values, we have,

c^{2}=2.7^{2}+3.4^{2}-2\times 2.7\times 3.4\cos 40\\\\c^{2}=7.29+11.56-18.36\times 0.766\\\\c^{2}=18.85-14.06\\\\c^2=4.79\\\\c=2.2

Thus, the length of the third side is 2.2 feet.

Now, the Heron's Area Formula is given by A=\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}, where s=\frac{a+b+c}{2}.

So, s=\frac{2.7+3.4+2.2}{2}\\\\s=\frac{8.3}{2}\\\\s=4.15

Then, the area of the triangle is,

A=\sqrt{4.15(4.15-2.7)(4.15-3.4)(4.15-2.2)}\\\\A=\sqrt{4.15\times 1.45\times 0.75\times 1.95}\\\\A=\sqrt{8.80059375}\\\\A=2.97

<h3>Thus, the area of the triangle is 2.97 ft².</h3>

Lemon goes to the store and buys a game station for $25. The store is running a discount of 15%. What is the price of the game s
TEA [102]

Answer:

$21.25

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Convert the 15% to a decimal by dividing by 100.     15 ÷ 100 = 0.15

2. Multiply the $25 by the decimal of 15%.                    25 × 0.15 = 3.75

3. Subtract your previous answer (3.75) from the original price of the game station.        25 - 3.75 = 21.75

4. Therefore the price of the game station after the discount is $21.75.

G(t) = -2t + 3f(t) = 2t - 5<br> Find (g f)(t)
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

( g − f ) ( a ) = g ( a ) − f ( a )

( g −f ) ( a ) = g ( a ) − f ( a )

= − 3 a − 3 − a 2 − 5

= − a 2 − 3a − 8

Part B A sales person earned 1375
Furkat [3]

Question:

A salesperson earns commission on the sales that she makes each month.

The salesperson earns a 5% commission on the first $5,000 she has in sales.

The salesperson earns a 7.5% commission on the amount on her sales that are greater than $5,000.  

Part A:

This month the salesperson had $8,000 in sales. What amount of commission, in dollars, did she earn?

Part B:

The salesperson earned $1,375 in commission, last month. How much money, in dollars, did she have in sales last month?

Answer:

A) The amount of commission  = $575

B) The total sales amount  =  $20000

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3><u>Part A </u></h3>

Given:

Total amount earned =  $8,000 in sales

To Find :

The amount of commission, in dollars

Solution:

The commission she earns = Commission 1+ Commission 2----------(1)

Commission 1 = 5% of 5000

Commission 2  = 7.5 % of (8000- 5000}

Finding commission 1:

= 5% of 5000

= \frac{5}{100} \times 5000

= 0.05 \times 5000

= $250 ------------------------------(2)

Finding commission 2:

=  7.5 % of (3000)

=\frac{7.5}{100}\times 3000

= 0.075 \times 3000

= $225----------------------------------(3)

Substituting (2) and (3) in (1)

The commission she earns = $250 + $225 = $575

<h3><u>Part B</u></h3>

Given:

Total commission earned = $1375

To Find :

The total sales amount = ?

Solution ;

Let the sales amount be x

Then

1375 = 5% of  5000 + 7.5 % of (x -5000)

1375 = 0.05 \times 5000 + 0.075 \times (x -5000)

1375 = 250 + 0.075x - 375

1375 = -125 + 0.075 x

1375 +125 = 0.075 x

1500 = 0.075x

x = \frac{1500}{0.075}

x = 20000

The total sales amount  is $20000
