so the cost was 1477, which is 177 over the budget, meaning the budget is 1477 - 177 or just 1300.

now, if we take 1300 to be the 100%, how much in percentage is 177, the overflown amount?

\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 1300&100\\ 177&p \end{array}\implies \cfrac{1300}{177}=\cfrac{100}{p}\implies 1300p=17700\implies p=\cfrac{17700}{1300} \\\\\\ p=\cfrac{177}{13}\implies p\approx 13.62\implies \stackrel{\textit{rounded up}}{p=14}

Answer:

<em>The cost exceeded the budgeted cost by 14%</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Supplies for last year cost $1,477, <u>which was $177 over budget</u>. So, the budgeted cost was:  (\$1477-\$177)=\$1300

Suppose, the cost of supplies exceeded the budgeted cost by  x\%

So, <u>the amount of exceeded cost</u> =1300\times x\%=1300\times \frac{x}{100}= 13x dollar.

Thus, the equation will be......

13x=177\\ \\ x=\frac{177}{13}=13.615... \approx 14

<em>(Rounded to the nearest 1%)</em>

So, the cost exceeded the budgeted cost by 14%

JulijaS [17]

Answer:

steps below

Step-by-step explanation:

arc QR = 2x57 - 41 = 73

arc PQ = 360 - 73 - 41 - 137 = 109

m∠Q = (41+137) / 2 = 89°

m∠R = (109+137) / 2 = 123°

m∠S = (109+73) / 2 = 91°

check: ∠R+∠p = 123+57 = 180

           ∠Q+∠S = 89+91 = 180
