Someonethe formula for finding the area of a triangle is a=1/2bh . solve for the height, h, and state in words the meaning of the new equation for h in terms of a and b.

A = 1/2 bh

multiply each side by 2

2A = bh

divide each side by b

2A/b =h

The height of a triangle is equal to twice the area A divided by the base ,b.

the final amount you will pay is $68.04.

the tip is determined by the pre-tax amount, so we calculate the tip based on the original bill, not after we've added sales tax.

to find the tip:

we can divide 54.00 by 100 to get 1% of 54. then we multiply that by 18.

54 / 100 = .54

.54 x 18 = 9.72

tip = 9.72$

to find the tax:

we can divide 54.00 by 100 to get 1% of 54. then we can multiply that by 8 to get 8%.

54 / 100 = .54

.54 x 8 = 4.32

tax= 4.32

now we can add the tip and tax to the bill to get our total.

54 + 9.72 + 4.32 = 68.04

total: $68.04
