110% = 1.1

1 + 1.1 = 2.1

17.85 / 2.1 = 8.5

answer: original price was $8.50

Answer:

x = -1, -5

Step-by-step explanation:

${(x + 3)}^{2} = 4 \\ = > {x}^{2} + 2 \times x \times 3 + {3}^{2} = 4 \\ = > {x}^{2} + 6x + 9 = 4 \\ = > {x}^{2} + 6x = 4 - 9 \\ = > {x}^{2} + 6x = - 5 \\ = > {x}^{2} + 6x + 5 = 0 \\ = > {x}^{2} + 5x + x + 5 = 0 \\ = > x(x + 5) + 1(x + 5) = 0 \\ = > (x + 1)(x + 5) \\ = > x = - 1 \: \: or \: \: - 5$

Chord AC intersects chord BD at point P in circle Z.

Alik [6]

In this question, we have to use the intersecting chord theorem, and the formula which is

$AP * CP = BP * DP$

In the given circle, values of AP, CP and DP are 12m, 6m and 5m respectively .

Substituting the values in the formula, we will get

$12*6 = 5BP$

Dividing both sides by 5

$BP = \frac{72}{5} = 14.4 m$
