<h2>Answer:</h2>
  • Pet store 2 is offering the better price.
  • The price by which it is cheap is: $ 0.315
<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

<u>Pet Store--1</u>

They are  offering the flea treatment for 40 percent off plus an additional 25 percent off their regular price of $33.

This means that the cost of treatment after a off of 40% is:

33-0.40×33=$ 19.8

Now after a additional discount of 25% , a person has to pay (100-25)%=75% of the above discounted price.

i.e. 0.75 of 19.8

= 0.75×19.8

= $ 14.85

Hence, the total cost of treatment in store -1 is: $ 14.85

<u>Pet Store--2</u>

They are offering the same flea treatment for 55 percent off plus an additional 5 percent off their regular price of $34.

This means that the cost of treatment after a off of 55% is:

34-0.55×34=$ 15.3

Now after a additional discount of 5% , a person has to pay (100-5)%=95% of the above discounted price.

i.e. 0.95 of 15.3

= 0.95×15.3

= $ 14.535

Hence, the total cost of treatment in store -1 is: $ 14.535

Hence, the location which is offering the better price is: Pet Store-2

The amount by which it is cheaper than store 1 is:

= 14.85-14.535

= $ 0.315

What is the radius and center of the circle given by the equation (x-5)^{2}+(y+2)^{2} = 81/4
artcher [175]

Answer:

The center is (5, -2) and the radius is 9/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle can be written by

(x-h) ^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2

where (h,k) is the center and r is the radius

(x-5)^{2}+(y+2)^{2} = 81/4

( (x-5)^{2}+(y- -2)^{2} = (9/2)^2

The center is (5, -2) and the radius is 9/2

Write an equation in slope-intercept form that has m = 5/4 through (-4,-3)
timama [110]

Answer:

y=5/4x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok so in the point (-4,-3) -4 is x and -3 is y. Now, since you have the slope, 5/4, you can put it into an equation. -3= 5/4(-4) + b. When you multiply 5/4 x -4 you get -3=-5 + b so then add 5 to both sides to get rid of it and you have 2=b. And your equation would be y=5/4x + 2

If two supplementary angles are in the ratio of 4:5 the measure of the larger angle is
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the angles be 4x , 5x

4x + 5x = 180   { supplementary}

      9x = 180

        x = 180/9

        x = 20

Larger angle= 5x = 5* 20 = 100
