<h3>Answer:  9</h3>

===================================================

Explanation:

The area of the parallelogram is equal to the base times height. The formula to use is A = b*h. The height and base are always perpendicular to one another.

The base is some unknown variable b. Multiply the base by the height 15 to get 15*b which is equal to the area 135

Therefore, 15*b = 135

Divide both sides by 15 and we isolate b

15b = 135

15b/15 = 135/15

b = 9

So the base is 9

Check:

area = base*height = 9*15 = 135

so the answer is confirmed

side note: we never use the value 17 at all. It is likely put in there as a distraction.

42 of the 150 employees at Carlo's Car Repair wear contact lenses. What percent of the employees wear contact lenses?
antiseptic1488 [7]
\frac{42}{150} ÷ 2 = \frac{21}{75}

\frac{21}{75} ÷ 3 = \frac{7}{25}

\frac{42}{150}= \frac{7}{25}

Then, divide 7 by 25 because 25 is the divisor

7 ÷ 25 = 0.28

28% is the answer (:
