Answer: $372

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original retail price be 'x'

Therefore, using the give information, we can form the following equation:

50/100x = 186

Now, solve for x

50/100x = 186

1/2x = 186

x = 186 * 2

x = 372

The original retail price is $372.

Check:

50/100(372) = 186

1/2(372) = 186

186 = 186

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

p = ½ (x₁ + x₂)

q = a (x₁x₂ − ¼ (x₁ + x₂)²)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = a (x − x₁) (x − x₂)

Expand:

y = a (x² − x₁x − x₂x + x₁x₂)

y = a (x² − (x₁ + x₂)x + x₁x₂)

Distribute a to the first two terms:

y = a (x² − (x₁ + x₂)x) + ax₁x₂

Complete the square:

y = a (x² − (x₁ + x₂)x + ¼(x₁ + x₂)²) + ax₁x₂ − ¼ a(x₁ + x₂)²

y = a (x − ½ (x₁ + x₂))² + a (x₁x₂ − ¼ (x₁ + x₂)²)

Therefore:

p = ½ (x₁ + x₂)

q = a (x₁x₂ − ¼ (x₁ + x₂)²)

Perimeter = 2b + 8 = 10b + 5 + a = 15ab + 2a - b = 17a

Area = 2 + 8 = 10 + 2 = 12 × 5 = 60 simplify
