Answer:

<u>52 cm</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1st piece (from bottom) = 67 cm

15th piece = 32 cm

a = 67

a₁₅ = a + 14d = 32

14d = 32 - 67

d = -35/14

d =-5/2

d = -2.5

a₇ = a + 6d

= 67 + 6(-2.5)

= 67 - 15

= <u>52 cm</u>

givi [52]

Answer:

$43.95

Step-by-step explanation:

A <em>percent</em> means ¹/₁₀₀ of something.

So, 15 % means ¹⁵/₁₀₀ of something.

15 % of $293.00 means ¹⁵/₁₀₀ × $293.00

Commission = ¹⁵/₁₀₀ × 293.00

Commission = 0.15 × 293.00

Commission = $43.95

Daniel makes $43.95 as commission.

The width of a rectangle is shown below:
Phoenix [80]
The difference between the y-coordinates is 7 units. If the area is to be 42 square units, the missing coordinates must be 42/7 = 6 units to the right of those shown.
B = A +(6, 0) = (-4, 4) +(6, 0) = (-2, 4)

D = C +(6, 0) = (-4, -3) +(6, 0) = (-2, -3)

The appropriate choice is the last one, ...
  (-2, 4) and (-2, -3)
