Answer:

a = 120 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

n = number of sides

edge length

40/n

divide the polygon into n congruent triangles

a = (1/2)(edge * apothem) * number of triangles

a = (1/2)(40/n)(6) * n

n cancels out

a = (1/2)(40)(6)

a = 120 cm²

Mr. Sanchez bought 2 magazine for 9.95 each and 1 book for 14.95 if the sales tax is 6% what is the total cost of Mr. Sanchez pu

Dima020 [189]

Rst you have to find the price of everything together

2 magazines for 9.95 each and a book for 14.95

9.95 + 9.95 + 14.95 = 34.85

Next you convert the percent to a decimal

6% = 0.06

Now you put a one in the ones place

1.06

Multiply this by the cost of everything

34.85 * 1.06 = 36.94

The answer is $36.94

Hope this helps!
