A percentage is a way to describe a part of a whole. The approximate percent decrease in the price is 21.87%, thus, the correct option is B.

<h3>What are Percentages?</h3>

A percentage is a way to describe a part of a whole. such as the fraction ¼ can be described as 0.25 which is equal to 25%.

To convert a fraction to a percentage, convert the fraction to decimal form and then multiply by 100 with the '%' symbol.

Given the reduction in the price is $7, while the original cost is $32. Therefore, the approximate percent decrease in the price is,

Percentage decrease = 7/32  × 100%

                                     = 21.87%

Hence, the approximate percent decrease in the price is 21.87%, thus, the correct option is B.

MrMuchimi

Answer:

161.8cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

solve for height which is the opposite

opp=x

sin(theata)= opp./hyp.

sin23=x/30

x=30×sin23

x=11.72cm

height=opposite

height=11.72cm

base=adjacent

base=27.6cm

½of 27.6cm=13.8

13.8cm×11.72cm=161.74 (2d.p)

161.74 rounded to the nearest tenths= 161.7

I'm not sure if it's the answer but it's the closest thing to the options
