Answer: 40%

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 70 cookies in total.

The percentage that are gingerbread will therefore be:

= Number of gingerbread/ Total number of cookies * 100%

= 28 / 70 * 100%

Area of a triangle is given by the formula A=1/2 bh. The area of the triangle shown to the right is 56 sq. units. Find its base
Westkost [7]
Given

base=2x+6
height=x+4

and
area=56 square units

56=1/2 times (2x+6) times (x+4)
times bot sides by 2
112=(2x+6)(x+4)
expand
112=2x²+14x+24
divide both sides by 2
56=x²+7x+12
minus 56 both sides
0=x²+7x-44
factor
waht 2 numbers mulitply to get -44 and add to get 7
11 and -4
0=(x-4)(x+11)
set to 0

x-4=0
x=4

x+11=0
x=-11
false, measures can't be negative

x=4


height=x+4
height=4+4=8


base=2x+6
base=2(4)+6=8+6=14



x=4 and base=14 and height=8

Ksju [112]

112-88 = 24

 they save $24 per month

so 650/24 = 27.083

so it will pay for itself in 27.083 months, round up to 28 months

Write the expression as a whole number with a negative exponent. Do not evaluate the expression.
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer: \frac{1}{3^6}=3^{-6}

Explanation: Denominators of a fraction can be equivalently written as their value to the power of negative 1. In this case the denominator expression itself  has an exponent of 6, which taken to the power of negative one becomes -6:

\frac{1}{3^6}=(3^6)^{-1}=3^{6(-1)}=3^{-6}
