The area of a triangular sail is given by the expression 12bh, where b is the length of the base and h is the height. What is the area of a triangular sail in a model sailboat when b = 12 inches and h = 7 inches?

Four individuals pool money together to start a new business and agree to split the profits equally. n invests $6,000, x invests $2,000, y invests $8,000 and z invests $4,000. if the profits for the first month were $100,000, y receives than if the profits were divided in proportion to how much they invested.

0if x and y vary inversely and y=6 as x=7, what is the constant of variation?

The value of x in this system of equations is 1. 3x + y = 9 y = –4x + 10 substitute the value of y in the first equation: combine like terms: apply the subtraction property of equality: apply the division property of equality: 3x + (–4x + 10) = 9 –x + 10 = 9 –x = –1 x = 1 what is the value of y?
