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.

A shoe store is having a sale. A pair of sandals has an original price of $42. They are on sale for 30% off the original price.
professor190 [17]
30% of 42 is 12.6$.
42-12.6 = 29.4$ is the price of the pair with discount applied.
Tax 7%
29.4 * 7% = 2.06
29.4$ + 2.06$ = 31.46 $ final price with discount and tax applied.

The sum of the digits of a 2-digit number is 10. If 18 is added to the number, the digits of the new number are those of the ori
Aliun [14]

Answer:

46

Step-by-step explanation:

Let (ab) represent a number with a in the ten's position and b is the one's position.

This means (ab) actually has value of 10a+b.

We are given the sum of those digits of (ab) is 10; this means a+b=10.

It says if 18 is added to the number (ab), then the result is (ba).

So (ab) has value 10a+b and

(ba) has value 10b+a.

We are given then:

(ab)+18=(ba)

10a+b+18=10b+a

Subtract 10a on both sides:

b+18=10b+a-10a

Simplify:

b+18=10b-9a

Subtract b on both sides:

18=10b-b-9a

18=9b-9a

Divide both sides by 9:

2=b-a

Rearrange by commutative property:

2=-a+b

So the system of equations we want to solve is:

a+b=10

-a+b=2

-------------------------Add equations together (this will eliminate the variable a and allow you to go ahead and solve for b:

0+2b=12

2b=12

Divide both sides by 2:

b=\frac{12}{2}

Simplify:

b=6

If b=6 and a+b=10, then a=4.  a=4 since 4+6=10.

So the original number is (46).

18 more than 46 is 18+46=(64) which is what we wanted.

We also have the sum of 4 and 6 is 10 as well.

Write the equation of a line in point slope form that is PARALLEL 5x + 2y = 1 that passes through the point (- 2, - 3) .
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

y = -5/2x - 13

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we have to find the slope of the original equation

Subtract 5x from both sides

5x + 2y = 1

- 5x         - 5x

2y = -5x + 1

Divide both sides by 2

2y/2 = (-5x + 1)/2

y = -5/2x + 1/2

The slope of this equation is -5/2, so -5/2 has to be in our new parallel equation

y = -5/2x + b

Plug in the given x and y

-3 = -5/2(-2) + b

-3 = 10 + b

Subtract 10 from both sides

-3 = 10 + b

- 10  - 10

b = -13

This makes our equation: y = -5/2x - 13
