16% of 24 is 3.87
Rounding up you have 4 dimes.

A dime is worth 10c, so you have $.40 in dimes.
4 dimes.

8_murik_8 [283]

19.30 - ( p / 100 )*19.32 = 14.01 ;
19.30( 1 - p/100 ) = 14.01 ;
1 - p/100 = 14.01 / 19.30
1 - p / 100 = 0.72 ;
p/100 = 1 - 72 / 100 ;
p/100 = 28 / 100 ;
p = 28 ;
The percent discount is 28% ;

A sector of a circle has a central angle measuring 15 degrees and the radius of the circle measures 9 inches. What is the arc le

Kamila [148]

Answer:

Arc length is $\dfrac{3\pi }{4}\ \text{inches}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have,

Central angle is 15 degrees and the radius of the circle measures 9 inches.

It is required to find the arc length of the sector.

The relation between arc length and the central angle is given by :

$\dfrac{\text{arc length}}{\text{circumference}}=\dfrac{\theta}{360}$

Circumference, $C=2\pi r=18\pi$

$\theta=15^{\circ}$

$\dfrac{x}{18\pi }=\dfrac{15}{360}\\\\\dfrac{x}{18\pi }=\dfrac{1}{24}\\\\x=\dfrac{18\pi }{24}\\\\x=\dfrac{3\pi }{4}\ \text{inches}$

Hence, the correct option is (b).
