The first five months Paul paid  and in the next seven months he paid 24.

<h3>What is a Discount ?</h3>

Discounts are defined as lowered prices or the sale of an item for less than it would typically cost. The fundamental formula for calculating a discount is to multiply the original price by the given percentage rate in decimal form. We must deduct the discount from the original price to determine the item's sale price. A discount is an amount that is subtracted from the regular price of an item.

Paul represent his plan in the form of equation:

5 x+7(x+8.50)=245.50

Where x  is an amount for the first 5 months that is paid by Paul after the discount and (x+8.50)  is an amount for the next 7 month after discount.

&\Rightarrow \quad 5 x+7 x+59.50=245.50 \\&\Rightarrow \quad 12 x=186 \\&\Rightarrow \quad x=\frac{186}{12} \\&\Rightarrow \quad x=15.50\end{aligned}

For the next 7 month:

(x+8.50)=(15.50+8.50)=\$ 24

Therefore, The first 5 months Paul paid $ 15.50, and in the next 7 months he paid $ 24.

Answer:

The answer to the question is 50.28 feet²

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, is why the answer to the problem is 13.72!

The area of the shaded region is:-

Area of total region - Area of the circular region

Area of total region is 8² so it is 64 feet²

Area of Circular region formula is πr²

Substitute the values, for the formula and it is π4² = 22/7 × 16

                                                                         → 352/7

                                                                        ⇒ 13.72 Feet²

Therefore, the area of the shaded region is 13.72 Feet²

(Now, we subtract the two values)

64 - 13.72

⇒ 50.28 Feet²

I hope this answer helps!
