Answer:

$2640

Step-by-step explanation:

Sheila's car payment is 9% of her total income.

let i = total income

this equation can be used to represent the information :

9%  x i = $297

to determine i, divide both sides of the equation by 9%

$297 / 0.09 = $3300

After the marriage, the car payment which is 3300 would be 5% of the combined income.

let c = combined income

5% x c = $297

c = $297 / 0.05 = $5940

Ryan's income = combined income - Sheila's income

$5940 - $3300 = $2640

help with this please
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Under a translation < 5, - 9 >

5 is added to the original x- coordinate and 9 is subtracted from the original y- coordinate, that is

A(1, 4 ) → A'(1 + 5, 4 - 9 ) → A'(6, - 5 )

B(2, - 2 ) → B'(2 + 5, - 2 - 9 ) → B'(7, - 11 )

C(- 3, 2 ) → C'(- 3 + 5, 2 - 9 ) → C'(2, - 7 )

the height of a triangle is 4 meters less than the base. if the area of the triangle is 6 m^2 what is the height of the triangle
inna [77]

Answer:

2m

Step-by-step explanation:

Alrighty let's do this.

We know that formula for the Area of a triangle is:

A = \frac{1}{2}bh

They give us the area as 6m^2, so let's include it in the equation.

6 = \frac{1}{2}bh

Now we reach a stage where we have 2 unknown variables! That means we can't solve it in its current state. So the idea you should have in cases like these where you have 2 or more unknown variables is, "Can I represent this one variable in terms of another variable?" In this case you can do exactly that. You can represent height in terms of length of the base. We are told the height of the triangle is 4 meters less than the base. That is telling us that h = b-4

So replace h in the equation with b-4.

You will now get:

6 = \frac{1}{2}b(b-4)

Now we can work towards solving. Let's get simplifying.

12 = b(b-4)\\12 = b^2 - 4b\\

bring everything to one side so we can make a quadratic and factor:

0 = b^2 - 4b - 12\\0 = (b-6)(b+2)\\\\b = 6\\b\neq -2

We get that b=6.

Since we need the height of the triangle we'll need to call back on what h is. We found earlier that h = b - 4, so to find h, we just sub in our b value into that.

h = (6) - 4 = 2

We find that h=2
