The area of a triangle is 24 square inches. What is the height of the triangle if the base length is 6 inches?

8 because area of a triangle is 1/2(base)(height) so we model this as:
24=(1/2)(6)(h) simplify a little so
24=3h
divide both sides by 3. so:
h=8

The height should be 8 because the area of a triangle is b*h/2 so 6*8= 48/2=24 so the height is 8.

You went to Walmart and spend $75. Of the total bill, $45.50 included non-taxable items. How much is the final bill if you apply

Alina [70]

We have been given that you went to Walmart and spend $75. Of the total bill, $45.50 included non-taxable items.

Let us find the amount of taxable items by subtracting amount of non-taxable items from total bill.

$\text{Amount of taxable items}=\$75-\$45.50$

$\text{Amount of taxable items}=\$29.50$

We have been given that the rate of tax is 7.5% to the taxable items. To find the amount of tax, we will find 7.5% of $29.50.

$\text{Amount of tax}=\$25.50\times \frac{7.5}{100}$

$\text{Amount of tax}=\$25.50\times 0.075$

$\text{Amount of tax}=\$2.2125$

Final amount of bill would be amount of bill plus amount of tax.

$\text{Final amount of bill}=\$75+\$2.2125$

$\text{Final amount of bill}=\$77.2125$

Therefore, final amount of bill would be $\$77.2125$ .

Three times a larger number is 30 more than 5 times a smaller number. The sum of the larger number and 5 times the smaller numbe

slava [35]

3y = 5x + 30

y + 5x = 50 .......(1)

3y - 5x = 30 .....(2) - rearranging the first equation.

Add (1) and (2):-

4y = 80

y = 20
Now plug y = 20 into equation (1):-
20 + 5x = 50
5x = 30
x = 6

The 2 numbers are 6 and 20.
