The equation is part/whole = percent/100. Percent is unknown so it will be a variable, and it was marked down by 7 dollars so subtract : 25-7=18 now let's see our equation : 18/25 = x/100 Now solve : make sure 18/25 is simplified. (It all ready is) Now trade off : 18•100=25•x=1,800=25x (Divide by 25 on both sides and get) : 72=x. It was 72% off. Hoped I helped!

Answer:

a = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a special trig triangles. Special trig triangles are identified by their angle measures and their sides have a unique relationship. This is a 30 - 60 - 90 triangle which has sides 1 - √3 - 2 or multiples of this. This means all 30 - 60 - 90 triangles have side lengths with the pattern 1 - √3 - 2. Here the triangle has a - 7√√3 - 14. The value of a is 7 since 7*√3 = 7√3 and 2*7 = 14.
