Answer:

$7.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, I can help you with this

you can solve this by using a simple rule of three.

Step 1

define

if the wholesale price for a shirt is $5.50,it is 100 percent

$5.50⇔100%

the new price(x) is 40% more than the original, it means 140%

x  ⇔ 140%

the relation is

\frac{5.5}{100}= \frac{x}{140}\\

Step 2

solve for x(isolate x)

\frac{5.5}{100}= \frac{x}{140}\\x=\frac{5.5*140}{100}\\x=7.7

the price of the shirt in the department store is $7.7

Have a nice day.

A triangular prism container is full of water of 428 cubic cm. The water is 10 cm deep, what is the base area of the container?
Hatshy [7]
<h3>The base area of triangular prism container is 42.8 cubic centimeter</h3>

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

<em><u>The volume of triangular prism is given as:</u></em>

v = base\ area \times height

Given that,

A triangular prism container is full of water of 428 cubic cm

The water is 10 cm deep

Therefore,

v = 428 cubic cm

h = 10 cm

<em><u>Substituting the values we get,</u></em>

428 = base\ area \times 10\\\\base\ area = \frac{428}{10}\\\\base\ area = 42.8\ cm^2

Thus the base area of triangular prism container is 42.8 cubic centimeter
