Answer:

300 tarts

Step-by-step explanation:

we must solve this equation by going backwards

3/4 of something (as 1/4 was given away) is 150

150 / 3/4 is what you must do

or

150 * 4/3

that is

200

3/5 was sold so 2/5 was left

2/5 of something is 200

200 / 2/5

200 * 5/2

that is

500

3/5 of that was sold

so

500 * 3/5 is 300

300 tarts were sold

The diameter of Circle terminates on the circumference of the circle at​ (3,0) and (3,−7).. Write the equation of the circle in
Verdich [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

that means the center of the circle is exactly in the middle between the 2 points.

and since both points have the same x value (so, the diameter here is a vertical line), it is ready to get the y value of the middle : (-7 - 0) / 2 = -3.5

so, the coordinates of the center are (3, -3.5).

and that makes the standard circle equation

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

to

(x - 3)² + (y + 3.5)² = 3.5² = 12.25

as h, k are the coordinates of the center, and r is the radius (half the diameter).
