Given that after a 15% price reduction, a boat sold for $15,200. Now we have to find the boats price before the reduction.

Let the boats price before the reduction = x

Reduction = 15% of original price = 15% of x = 0.15x

Then selling price will be difference of original price and reduction

Selling price = Origina price - Reduction

15200 = x - 0.15x

15200 = 0.85x

\frac{15200}{0.85}=x

17882.3529412=x

Hence origina price before reduction is approx $17882.35

Someone please answer this
babymother [125]

Answer:

9.4m is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

a = 8m

b = 5m

c = ?

According to the Pythagoras theorem,

a² + b² = c²

8² + 5² = c²

64 + 25 = c²

89 = c²

c = 9.433

Rounding off,

c = 9.4m

A circle is defined by the equation x2 + y2 + 8x + 22y + 37 = 0. What are the coordinates for the center of the circle and the l
inn [45]
We can say that:
8x = -2ax
8 = -2a
a = -4

22y = - 2by
22 = -2b
b = -11

37 = a² + b² - r²
37 = (-4)² + (-11)² - r²
r² = 16 + 121 - 37
r² = 100
r = 10

With all this information, we can say that:
The center of the circle is: (-4 ; -11)
and the radius of the circle is r = 10

P.S:
(a - x)² + (b-y)² = r²
a² - 2ax + x² + b² -2by + y² - r² = 0
x² + y² -2ax - 2by + a² + b² - r² = 0

Simplify completely quantity x squared plus 4 x minus 45 all over x squared plus 10 x plus 9 and find the restrictions on the va
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

A) Quantity x minus 5 over quantity x plus 1, where x≠-1 and x≠-9

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{x^2 + 4x - 45}{x^2 + 10x + 9}

Simplifying the numerator first:

x² + 4x - 45 using the quadratic formula you get;

(x - 5)(x + 9)

Then simplifying the denominator x² + 10x + 9 using a quadratic formula you get;

(x + 1)(x + 9)

Dividing the numerator and denominator now gives;

\frac{(x - 5)(x + 9)}{(x + 1)(x + 9)}

Cancelling (x + 9) throughout leaves you with;

\frac{x - 5}{x + 1}

The only restrictions here is if x = 1 and 9 which will give an undefined answer.
