Answer:
42
Step-by-step explanation:
1/3 x 42 = 14
14 - 6 = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
You deposit some money into a bank account paying 4% simple interest per year. You received $72 in interest after 3 years. How much the deposit (principal) was?
Perimeter is the sum of all three sides so in this case x+(3x+2)+(3x+2).
They also gave us the perimeter which is 39 so
39= x+(3x+2)+(3x+2)
Simplify so 39=7x+4. [x+3x+3x=7x and 2+2=4]
Then get x by itself so subtract 4 from both sides.
35=7x
Then divide both sides by 7 to get x by itself.
Which leaves us with
X=5

Answer: angle B = 47 degrees</h3>
========================================
Work Shown:
Use law of cosines to find angle B
b^2 = a^2 + c^2 - 2*a*c*cos(B)
9^2 = 6^2 + 12^2 - 2*6*12*cos(B)
81 = 36 + 144 - 144*cos(B)
81 = 180 - 144*cos(B)
81 - 180 = -144*cos(B)
-99 = -144*cos(B)
-144*cos(B) = -99
cos(B) = (-99)/(-144)
cos(B) = 0.6875
B = arccos(0.6875)
B = 46.5674634422102
B = 47 when rounding to the nearest whole number
Make sure your calculator is in degree mode.
arccos is the same as inverse cosine often labeled 
on calculators.
