Zach invested $1500. he earned 23.2% on his investment. determine how much money he has now.

To figure out 23.2%, first figure out how much 1% is by dividing 1500 divided by 100=15

Next, multiply the 15(1%) by the 23.2% to figure out how much that is.
23.2 x 15 = 348

Now, you have to add thr investment ($348) to his originsl amount of money ($1500).
$1500 + $348 = $1848

Zach now has $1848

48 ft² of the outdoor carpet will be needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given question we have a carpet in rectangle shape having measures of 12 ft long and width of 5 ft.

Therefore the area of the carpet is = 12×5 = 60 ft²

Now a triangle and a rectangle have been cut off and we have to calculate the area of remaining carpet.

Therefore area of the triangle = (1/2)×Base×height = (1/2)×3×[12-(6+2)]

= (1/2)×3×4 = 6 ft²

Now the area of rectangle which was removed from the carpet = length × width = 3×2 = 6 ft²

Now the remaining area of the big carpet without the small rectangle and triangle = 60 - (6 + 6) = 60 - 12 = 48 ft²

Therefore we will require 48 ft² outdoor carpet.
