Assume that BC is tangent to circle A. Find the value of x. Round your answer to the nearest tenth

Mathematics
1 answer:
Natalija [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x ≈ 9.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Δ ABC is right with ∠ C = 90° ( angle between tangent and radius )

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle

x² + 14² = 17²

x² + 196 = 289 ( subtract 196 from both sides )

x² = 93 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = \sqrt{93} ≈ 9.6 ( to the nearest tenth )

A store is instructed by corporate headquarters to put a markup of 25​% on all items. An item costing ​$24 is displayed by the s
larisa [96]

Answer: The correct selling price is $29.97.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Cost price of an item = $27

Mark up rate = 11%

So, Amount of mark up would be

So, Amount after mark up would be

Hence, the correct selling price is $29.97.

The manager's likely error is that he has put the selling price the mark up amount only i.e $2.9≈$3 instead of adding the mark up amount to the cost price.
