The triangle is a right triangle with legs 6 and 8. Its area is ...

A = 1/2bh = 1/2(6)(8) = 24 . . . . square units

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The equation for a line in <em>intercept form</em> is ...

x/a + y/b = 1

where 'a' and 'b' are the x- and y-intercepts, respectively. If we divide the given equation by 2, we get ...

x/6 +y/8 = 1

showing us that the x- and y-intercepts are 6 and 8. This is also clear on the graph.

<h2>40 % of coins are pennies.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of coins = 600

Total number of pennies = 240

$\texttt{Percentage of the coins are pennies=}\frac{\texttt{Total number of pennies}}{\texttt{Total number of coins}}\times 100\\\\\texttt{Percentage of the coins are pennies=}\frac{240}{600}\times 100\\\\\texttt{Percentage of the coins are pennies=}\frac{240}{6}\\\\\texttt{Percentage of the coins are pennies=}\frac{120}{3}\\\\\texttt{Percentage of the coins are pennies=}40\%$
