Suppose that you are a manager of a clothing store and have just purchased 100 shirts for $15 each. After a month of selling the

shirts at the regular price, you plan to have a sale giving 30% of the original selling price. However ,you want to make a profit of $6 on each shirt at the sale price. What should you price the shirts at initially to ensure this?

When you say "Plan to have a sale giving 30% of the original selling price", I suppose it's taking away 30%? So taking away 30% is like $15 - $4.5 = $10.50
Adding $6 more is $16.50.
If you're saying the manager  is selling the price 30% of $15 then the price is $4.50 Plus the $6, it should be $10.50

So the answer should either be $16.50 or $10.50
               Hope this helps! :)

Find the area of the triangle ABC with the coordinates of A(10, 15) B(15, 15) C(30, 9).
lions [1.4K]

Check the picture below.  so, that'd be the triangle's sides hmmm so let's use Heron's Area formula for it.

~\hfill \stackrel{\textit{\large distance between 2 points}}{d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2}}~\hfill~ \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ (\stackrel{x_1}{10}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{5})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{15}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{15}) ~\hfill a=\sqrt{[ 15- 10]^2 + [ 15- 5]^2} \\\\\\ ~\hfill \boxed{a=\sqrt{125}} \\\\\\ (\stackrel{x_1}{15}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{15})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{30}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{9}) ~\hfill b=\sqrt{[ 30- 15]^2 + [ 9- 15]^2} \\\\\\ ~\hfill \boxed{b=\sqrt{261}}

(\stackrel{x_1}{30}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{9})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{10}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{5}) ~\hfill c=\sqrt{[ 10- 30]^2 + [ 5- 9]^2} \\\\\\ ~\hfill \boxed{c=\sqrt{416}} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill

\qquad \textit{Heron's area formula} \\\\ A=\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}\qquad \begin{cases} s=\frac{a+b+c}{2}\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ a=\sqrt{125}\\ b=\sqrt{261}\\ c=\sqrt{416}\\ s\approx 23.87 \end{cases} \\\\\\ A\approx\sqrt{23.87(23.87-\sqrt{125})(23.87-\sqrt{261})(23.87-\sqrt{416})}\implies \boxed{A\approx 90}
