Area of a triangle = 1/2 × base × height

Plug in what we know.

78 = 1/2 × b × 9¾

Multilply each side by 2 to get rid of the 1/2...

156 = b × 9¾

Write 9¾ as an improper fraction.
(9¾ = 9 + 3/4 = (9×4)/4 + 3/4 = 36/4 + 3/4 = 39/4)

156 = b × 39/4

Multiply each side by 4...

624 = b × 39

Divide each side by 39...

16 = b

Done! The length of the base of the triangle is <u>16</u> inches.

Graham paid $87.45 for a pair of jeans. This amount included a tax of 40%. What was the cost of the jeans before tax?
kiruha [24]

The final price is the cost plus the tax.

Since we know the tax and a percent, we can write this as

T = C(1+r)

T = what Graham paid = $87.45

C = cost before tax

r = tax rate expressed as a decimal = .40

Plugging in what we know

87.45 = C (1+.4)

87.45 = C(1.4)

Divide both sides by 1.4

C = $62.46
