makeing it into a proportion would be the easiest -

9/x = 21/54

Drew invests $70.00. It earns 50% interest annually.

VladimirAG [237]

Step-by-step explanation:

50% interest annually.

that means he gets 50% interest of the invested capital every year.

and that means he gets 50% of $70 in one year.

70 = 100%

1% = 100%/100 = 70/100 = $0.70

50% = 1%×50 = 0.7 × 50 = $35

he will earn $35 interest in one year.

as you noticed: 50% simply means 1/2 (as 100% stands for the whole).

A paperweight is shaped like a triangular pyramid. The base is an equilateral triangle. Find the surface area of the paperweight

melomori [17]

Answer:

<h2>8.3 in²</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

We have

three triangles with the base <em>b = 2 in.</em> and the height <em>h₁ = 2.2 in.</em>

one triangle with the base <em>b = 2 in. </em>and the height <em>h₂ = 1.7 in.</em>

The formula of an area of a triangle:

$A=\dfrac{b\cdot h}{2}$

<em>b</em><em> - base</em>

<em>h</em><em> - height</em>

Substitute:

$A_1=\dfrac{(2)(2.2)}{2}=\dfrac{4.4}{2}=2.2\ in^2$

$A_2=\dfrac{(2)(1.7)}{2}=1.7\ in^2$

$S.A.=3A_1+A_2$

$S.A.=3(2.2)+1.7=6.6+1.7=8.3\ in^2$
