Answer:

(A). The perimeter of the octagon is greater than that of the hexagon.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, hexagon consists of 6 sides and 6 angles, thus the measure of one angle of the hexagon will be=\frac{(n-2){\timeS}180^{\circ}}{6}

=\frac{(6-2){\timeS}180^{\circ}}{6}

=\frac{(4){\timeS}180^{\circ}}{6}

=120^{\circ}

Now, since MQ is the angle bisector of the one of the angle of the hexagon, therefore ∠QMP=60°.

Now, from ΔQMP. we have

\frac{MP}{MQ}=cos60^{\circ}

MP=\frac{1}{2}

Thus, the perimeter of the hexagon is:

P=12{\times}MP

P=12{\times}\frac{1}{2}

P=6 units

Thus, the perimeter of hexagon is 6 units.

Also, Since, octagon consists of 8 sides and 8 angles, thus the measure of one angle of the octagon will be=\frac{(n-2){\timeS}180^{\circ}}{8}

=\frac{(8-2){\timeS}180^{\circ}}{8}

=\frac{(6){\timeS}180^{\circ}}{8}

=135^{\circ}

Now, since AP is the angle bisector of the one of the angle of the octagon, therefore {\angle}PAC=cos\frac{135}{2}.

From ΔAPC, we have

AC=cos\frac{135}{2}

Now, Perimeter of octagon is:

P=16{\times}cos\frac{135}{2}

P=16{\times}0.382

P=6.122 units

Thus, the perimeter of octagon is 6.122 units.

Now, the perimeter of octagon is greater than perimeter of the hexagon, thus option A is correct that is The perimeter of the octagon is greater than that of the hexagon.

Bethany paid $408.75 for a pair of diamond stud earrings. The sale price was $375. What is the Percent of Sales Tax she paid for
9966 [12]

Answer:

She paid 9% of sales tax

Step-by-step explanation:

The sale price of diamond = $375

Let x be percent of sales tax

So, amount of tax = x\% \times 375 = \frac{x}{100} \times 375 =3.75x

So, Amount including tax = 375+3.75x

We are given that Bethany paid $408.75 for a pair of diamond stud earrings.

So, 375+3.75x=408.75

3.75x=408.75-375

x=\frac{408.75-375}{3.75}

x=9

Hence She paid 9% of sales tax
