Answer:
1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
add all of the totals including the missing pair
we now have 24
7+1 is 8
24 minus 8 is 16
24 can be split into 2 groups of 8
and we have 2/3 left. which makes our solution 1/3
Answer:
27
Step-by-step explanation:
total=average ×no.
18×40=720 the no. of coins for all children
12×24=288 no. of coins for boys
720-288=432 for all girls
one girl, mean,divide 432 by 16= 27
Use the formula i=prt, where i is the interest earned, p is the principal, r is the rate (as a decimal fraction) and t is the elapsed time, in years.
Here i = $72 = $1200 r (9/12) (9 months is 9/12, or 3/4, of 1 year)
Reducing,
$72 = $900r
Solving for r, r=0.08, or 8 percent per year.

Answer:
The height of the triangle is 7cm and the base is 16cm
Step-by-step explanation:
First of all we have to know the formula to calculate area of a triangle
a = area = 56
b = base
h = heigth
a = (b * h)/2
we replace the known values and we make 2 equations
56cm² = (b * h)/2
b = h + 9cm
we replace b by (h + 9cm) in the first equation
56cm² = (h + 9cm * h)/2
56cm² * 2 = h² + 9h
0 = h² + 9h - 112cm²
we use bhaskara formula:
(-b (±) √
(b² - 4ac) ) / 2a
we replace with the known values
h = (-9 (±) √
(9² - 4*1*(-112) ) ) / 2*1
h = (-9 (±) √
(81 + 448) ) ) / 2
h = (-9 (±) √529) /2
h = (-9 (±) 23)/2
h1 = (-9 + 23) / 2
h1 = 14 / 2
h1 = 7
h2 = (-9 - 23) / 2
h2 = -32 / 2
h2 = -16
The height of the triangle is 7cm and the base is 16cm
