Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = 1/2 * 2b * (5b - 7)

Area = 1/2 * 2b * (5b - 7) = 24

b * (5b - 7) = 24

5b^2 - 7b = 24

5b^2 - 7b - 24= 0

(b- 3 )(5b + 8) = 0

b = 3                    This the only solution that works.  b can't be minus

The base is 2b or 2 * 3 = 6

Answer:

y = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given (-5, 0) and (0, 0),

Find the slope (m):

slope (m) = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{0 - 0}{0 - (-5)} = \frac{0}{5} = 0

Slope (m) = 0.

Find the y-intercept (b):

y-intercept (b) = 0. This is the value of y, when x = 0.

To write the equation of the line, substitute m = 0, and b = 0 into y = mx + b

y = (0)(x) + 0

y = 0 + 0

y = 0

Summer spent $55.60 on clothes before sales tax. If sales tax is 7.5%, what did Summer spend with tax included?  *Add Explanatio
vampirchik [111]
$59.77. Turn the percent into a decimal by moving the decimal to the left two places (7.5 to 0.075). Then multiply the new decimal by the cost (55.60×0.075=4.17). 4.17 would be the total sales tax, so then add it to the price (55.77+4.17=59.77). Hope that helped.
