(sorry if this is wrong but hope this helps)

ANSWER: $27.60

STEP BY STEP:

You have to multiply 24 by 15%. Start by changing 15% into a decimal of .15. Then multiply 24 by .15 to get an answer of $3.60. This is how much more Mr. Jimerson will earn. Then add the original amount he earned by the amount the is now gaining. This gets you $27.60.

Before jumping into doing this problem, it is important to look at all the information's that have been made available in the question. Based on those given conditions the answer to the problem can be easily deduced.
Let us assume the number of friends Sumalee has = x
Then
2x + 8 = 40
2x = 40 -8
2x = 32
x = 32/2
x = 16
So Sumalee has 16 friends. There are numerous ways to get to the answer that is required to be found. This is the easiest and the shortest method. Hope i helped you.

the height of a triangle is 9m less than its base. the area of the triangle is 56 m^2 find the length of the base (SHOW STEPS)

Veronika [31]

Hey there :)

We know the area formula of a triangle
$\frac{1}{2} (base)(height)$

We are given:
The area = 56 m²
The base = let p represent this
The height = 9 m less than the base = p - 9

Apply the formula
56 = $\frac{1}{2}$ × ( p ) × ( p - 9 )
56 = $\frac{1}{2}$ × ( p² - 9p )

Divide $\frac{1}{2}$ on both sides
56 ÷ $\frac{1}{2}$ = p² - 9p
112 = p² - 9p

Bring 112 to the other side and equate equation to 0
p² - 9p - 112

Factorise { Sum = -9 , Product = - 112 , therefore suitable factors = - 16 × 7 )
( p - 16 )( p + 7 ) = 0
↓ ↓
p = 16 p = - 7 ← Reject p = - 7 since length cannot be negative

So, the length of the base is 16 m

Check:
56 m² = $\frac{1}{2}$ × 16 × ( 16 - 9 )
56 m² = 8 × 7
56 m² = 56 m²
