Step-by-step explanation:
1) First, before getting started, let's assume the price of the product is
. This variable will be used a lot throughout the problem (
).
2) Marking a price above means increasing the price in order to make money off of the purchased product. When raising something by
percent, the new price would be
.
---> In this case, the price increased by
percent.
This means that it would be: 
New price is: 
3) The shopkeeper is then offering a
percent discount off of this marked price. When offering a
percent discount price, the new price (with discount), expressed algebraically is: 
---> the expression above simplifies to 
In this case,
, 
---> 
This means that
, with discount, has been raised
.
10.5 % is the profit percent
(The profit percent being the final marked up price - purchased price)
Perimeter = sum of all sides
32 = 2(x+2) + 2(7)
32 = 2x+4 + 14
32 = 2x+18
14 = 2x
/2 /2
7 = x
To find the area of a sector of a circle use the next formula:

As the given circle has a outside angle 90º (it is not part of the sector of the circle) subtract the 90º from 360º (total angle of a circle) to find the angle of the sector:

Find the area of the sector with angle 270º:

Then, the approximate area of the given sector of a circle is 284.955 square inches
