Take 19.95 and subtract 17.85 from it to get 2.10. Divide 2.10 by 19.95 to get 0.105. Multiply that by 100 and you get 10.52. So it's 10% or maybe 11% if you're supposed to round. Hope this helps

Answer:

Find out the what percentage discount is seller offering you .

To prove

Formula

Discouunt\ percentage = \frac{Discount\times 100}{Marked\ price}

Discount = Marked price - Selling price

As given

You are offered an item for $17.85. If the seller states he normally sells the same item for $19.95 .

Here

Marked price = $19.95

Selling price = $17.85

Discount = 19.95 - 17.85

               = $2.1

Put in the formula

Discouunt\ percentage = \frac{2.1\times 100}{19.95}

Discouunt\ percentage = \frac{210}{19.95}

Discount percentage = 10.5% (Approx)

Therefore the discount is seller offering you is 10.5 % .

Equation is (x+1)^2 + (y+2)^2 = 25

Center is (-1, -2)

Radius = 5

===========================================

Work Shown:

x^2+2x+y^2+4y=20\\\\(x^2+2x)+(y^2+4y)=20\\\\(x^2+2x+1)+(y^2+4y)=20+1\\\\(x^2+2x+1)+(y^2+4y+4)=20+1+4\\\\(x+1)^2 + (y+2)^2 = 25\\\\

center = (h,k) = (-1,-2)

radius = 5

-----------------------------

Explanation:

I grouped up the x and y terms separately. Then I added 1 to both sides to complete the square for the x terms. I cut the 2 from 2x in half, then squared it to get 1. In the next step, I cut the 4 from 4y in half to get 2, which squares to 4. So that's why I added 4 to both sides to complete the square for the y terms.

Each piece is factored using the perfect squares factoring rule which is a^2+2ab+b^2 = (a+b)^2

The last equation is in the form (x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2

We can think of x+1 as x - (-1) to show that h = -1

Similarly, y+2 = y-(-2) = y-k to show that k = -2

The center is (h,k) = (-1,-2)

The radius is r = 5 because r^2 = 5^2 = 25 is on the right hand side in the last equation above.

A circle has a sector with area 1/2π and central angle of 1/9π radians . What is the area of the circle? Either enter an exact a
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

9\pi

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a sector is given by;

A= \frac{1}{2}  {r}^{2}  \theta

From the given information, the central angle is

\theta =  \frac{ \pi}{9}

and

A= \frac{\pi}{2}

Let us substitute and solve for the radius, r.

\frac{ \pi}{2}  =  \frac{1}{2}  \times  {r}^{2}  \times  \frac{ \pi}{9}

1 =  \frac{ {r}^{2} }{9}

{r}^{2}  = 9

r =  \sqrt{9}  = 3 \: units

The area of a circle is given by:

= \pi \:  {r}^{2}

Substitute the radius to get:

= \pi \times  {3}^{2}  \\  = 9\pi
