Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a triangle is given by

A = 1/2 bh where b is the base and h is the height

72 = 1/2 ( 16) h

72 = 8h

Divide each side by 8

72/8 = 8h/8

9 = h

The height is 9 cm

Terry sees this offer refurbished phone 35% off now only ?78 what was the original price

Ronch [10]

Answer:

$223.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the original price of phone.

We are told that Terry sees this offer refurbished phone 35% off now only $78.

We need to find x such that 35% of x is 78. We can represent this information as:

$\frac{35}{100} x=78$

$0.35 x=78$

$x=\frac{78}{0.35}$

$x=222.8571428571428571\approx 223$

Therefore, the original price of phone was $223.

How can I figure out this math problem: Stanley ran a 5 kilometer race in 30 minutes. What was his speed in kilometers per hour?

stiv31 [10]

Since the question is asking for the time units to be in hours, you want to convert 30 minutes to an hour; 0.5

We’re able to use the basic motion formula for velocity to work out this question.

Velocity = distance / time
Velocity = 5 / 0.5
Velocity = 10km/h

Therefore, Stanley’s average speed was 10 kilometres per hour. :)
