Answer:

$300 was the regular price of the sofa.

Step-by-step explanation:

If $219 is 27% less than the regular price, then it represents 73% of the regular price.

Regular price = r.

r/1 x 73/100 = $219. Reverse this to find that $219/1 divided by 73/100 = r.

To divide fractions, reverse the second fraction and MULTIPLY:

$219/1 x 100/73 = 21900/73 = 300.

Which equation can be solved by using this system of equations?
laila [671]
If you observe the two given equations, the left hand side of both equation is the same and is equal to y.

Since the left hand side of two equations is the same, we can conclude that the right hand side of two equations must also be the same. 

So, setting them right hand sides of both equations equal to each other and solving for x, we can find the solution to the simultaneous equations.

Therefore, the correct answer is option B

What is the determinant of the coefficient matrix of this system? <br> 4x-3y=-8 <br> 8x-3y=12
gladu [14]

The coefficient matrix is build with its rows representing each equation, and its columns representing each variable.

So, you may write the matrix as

\left[\begin{array}{cc}\text{x-coefficient, 1st equation}&\text{y-coefficient, 1st equation}\\\text{x-coefficient, 2nd equation}&\text{y-coefficient, 2nd equation} \end{array}\right]

which means

\left[\begin{array}{cc}4&-3\\8&-3\end{array}\right]

The determinant is computed subtracting diagonals:

\left | \left[ \begin{array}{cc}a&b\\c&d\end{array}\right]\right | = ad-bc

So, we have

\left | \left[\begin{array}{cc}4&-3\\8&-3\end{array}\right] \right | = 4(-3) - 8(-3) = -4(-3) = 12

A rectangular piece of paper with length 35 cm and width 14 cm has two semicircles cut out of it, as shown below.
Ede4ka [16]

Answer: 336.14 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of the rectangle after being cut, we want to find the area of the two semicircles and subtract it from the area of the rectangle. The area of the rectangle is just base times height, or 35cm times 14cm = 490cm² . Since there are two semicircles with the same diameter, we can just solve for the area of a circle and subtract it. To find the area of the circle, we need the radius, which we get by dividing the diameter by 2. After that, we calculate the radius to be 7cm, squared and multiplied by 3.14 (area of a circle) to get 153.86 cm². Subtract the areas, and we get 490 - 153.86 = 336.14 cm²
