Uncle percy sold t-shirts at the show. Now he only have 10% of the t-shirts he started with. If he has 25 t-shirts now, how many

did he start with

Percy used to have 100% of the shirts (before he started selling them). Since then, he has given away 90% of the shirts and is now left with only 10% of what he used to have. He currently has 25 shirts, meaning that 25 is 10% of what he had.

Lets set up a proportion:

25 shirts : 10%
x shirts : 100%

x = 25*100 / 10
x = 2500 / 10
x = 250 shirts
Percy started off with 250 shirts.

the figure below shows a circle centre of radius 10 cm the chord PQ=16cm calculate the area of the shaded region​
m_a_m_a [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

OPQ originally forms a sector, the formula for sector is

\frac{x}{360} \pi {r}^{2}

where x is the degrees of rotation between the two radii.

We know three sides length and is trying to find an angle between the radii so we can use law of cosines which states that

16 =  \sqrt{10 {}^{2} + 10 {}^{2}   - 2(100) \times  \cos(o) }

This isn't the standard formula, it's for this problem

16 =  \sqrt{200 - 200 \times  \cos(o) }

16 =  \sqrt{200  - 200 \cos(o) }

256 = 200 - 200 \cos(o)

56 =  - 200 \cos(o)

-  \frac{7}{25}  =  \cos(o)

\cos {}^{ - 1} (  - \frac{7}{25} )  =  \cos {}^{ - 1} ( \cos(o) )

106.26 = o

So we found our angle of rotation, which is 106.26

Now, we do the sector formula.

\frac{106.26}{360} (100)\pi

\frac{10626}{360} \pi

is the area of sector.

Now let find the area of triangle, we can use Heron formula,

The area of a triangle is

\sqrt{s(s - a)(s - b)(s - c)}

where s is the semi-perimeter.

To find s, add all the side lengths up, 10,10,16 and divide it by 2.

Which is

\frac{36}{2}  = 18

\sqrt{18(18 - 10)(18 - 10)(18 - 16)}

\sqrt{18(8)(8)(2)}

\sqrt{(36)(64)}

6  \times 8 = 48

So our area of the triangle is 48. Now, to find the shaded area subtract the main area,( the sector of the circle) by the area of the triangle so we get

\frac{10626}{360}  - 48

Which is an approximate or

The line passes through the point (-2,-5) and has a slope of -3.
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

y = - 3x  -11

Step-by-step explanation:

(x₁ , y₁) = (-2 , -5)   & m = -3

y - y₁ = m (x - x₁)

y - [-5] = (-3)(x -[-2])

y + 5   = (-3)(x + 2)

y + 5  = -3x - 6

      y = -3x - 6 - 5

      y = - 3x  -11

Hence, the values of x, y and z are as follows:

x=10

y=5

z=2

Further explanation:

When two triangles are congruent, then their respective sides will also be congruent or equal

As it is given that

ΔABC≅ΔDFE

Which means that

EF = BC

ED=AC

FD=AB

Now,

EF=BC\\Putting\ the\ values\\x+15=2x+5\\x-2x=5-15\\-x=-10\\x=10\\AND\\FD=AB\\Putting\ the\ values\\4y=8y-20\\4y-8y=-20\\-4y=-20\\\frac{-4y}{-4}=\frac{-20}{-4}\\y=5\\AND\\ED=AC\\10z-5=3z+9\\10z-3z=9+5\\7z=14\\\frac{7z}{7}=\frac{14}{7}\\z=2

Hence, the values of x, y and z are as follows:

x=10

y=5

z=2
