Area of parallelogram = base * height
base 1 = 4.2 cm
height 1 = 3.6 cm
∴ Area = 4.2 * 3.6 = 15.12

let the other base 2 = x
∴ the altitude of this base = height 2 = 2.4
∴Area = 2.4 x = 15.12
Solve for x
                 ∴ x = 6.3 cm

∴ The perimeter of parallelogram = 2( base 1 + base 2)
                                                      = 2 ( 4.2 + 6.3 ) = 21 cm

A 4-ounce cup of coffee costs $8.00. How much would a 3-ounce cup of cofee codt?
romanna [79]
To solve this, we must first find out the cost-per-ounce of a cup of coffee. Assuming that the rates are flat, then we can just divide the 8-dollar-cost by the 4-ounce cup that it buys.

8 / 4 = 2

The cost-per-ounce of a cup of coffee is $2.
Now, we just have to multiply the cost-per-ounce by the amount of coffee we want to find out the cost of.

2 * 3 = 6

With all else constant, a 3-ounce cup of coffee would cost $6.
Hope that helped! =)

Students at a bake sale sell bags of cookies for $2.35 each and bags of miniature muffins for $1.75 each. While selling their ba
inessss [21]

Answer:

Option C (The expression 2.35c + 1.75m represents the money earned from selling c bags of cookies and m bags of muffins).

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that a bag of cookies is priced at $2.35 and a bag of muffin is priced at $1.75. It is also given that the student sells c bags of cookies and m bags of muffins. The total revenue earned by the student by selling c bag of cookies = $2.35 * c bags = $2.35c and the total revenue earned by the student by selling m bag of muffins = $1.75 * m bags = $1.75m. Therefore, the total revenue earned by the student by selling both cookies and muffins = 2.35c + 1.75m. This expression (2.35c + 1.75m) represents the money earned from selling c bags of cookies and m bags of muffins. Therefore, C is the correct choice!!!

$5000 was invested into an investment that pays 4.25% simple interest. The total value of the investment amounted to $6593.75. H
Basile [38]

Answer:

7.5 years

Step-by-step explanation:

P = $5000,

R = 4.25%,

A = $6593.75,

N =?

SI = A - P = 6593.75 - 5000 =$1593. 75

\because \: SI = \frac{ PNR}{100} \\  \\  \therefore \: 1593.75 =  \frac{5000 \times N \times 4.25}{100}  \\  \\  \therefore \: 1593.75 \times 100 = 21,250 \times N \\  \\ N =  \frac{159375}{21250}  \\  \\ N = 7.5 \: years \:
