Answer:

a= 17√3/ 2 or a≈14.72

Step-by-step explanation:

c = 17 and is the side opposite to the angle C

c=AB =17

a= BC because is the side opposite to angle A

sin 60° = opp./hyp = BC / AB = BC/17

sin 60° = BC /17 multiply both sides by 17

BC = 17* sin 60 = 17√3/2 ≈14.72

The price of an item has been reduced by 40%. The original price was $66. Find the price of the item now.

serious [3.7K]

Answer:

$39.60

Step-by-step explanation:

We are finding 66 - 40%

66 less 40% = 60% of 66

60% of 66 is the price of the item now.

Convert 60% to decimal form by dividing by 100.

60%/100 = 0.60

Multiply the decimal form by 66

66 X 0.6 = 39.60

Since we are dealing with money, keep 2 decimal places, even if the last digit is 0.

The price of the item now is $39.60.
