Answer:
5%
Step-by-step explanation:
Total 'halwa' made = 1
Divided into four equal portion = 1/4
Arrival of an unexpected guest = 1/5
By what percentage has each family member's share been reduced:
Change in the sharing proportion:
Previous share ratio - new sharing ratio
(1/4 - 1/5) = (5 - 4) / 20 = 1/20
That means total reduction in the sharing = 1/ 20
Since each member comes contributed equally:
Reduction in each family member's share ;
(1 / 20) ÷ 4
(1 / 20) * 1/4 = 1/ 80
Percentage reduction:
(Reduction / original share) * 100%
[(1/80) ÷ (1/4)] * 100
(1/80 * 4/1) * 100%
(1/20) * 100%
= 5%
Reduction in each family members share = 5%
Great Job! they are all correct. :)
Good luck in your next tests.
First, determine the center of the circle by getting the midpoint of the points given for the circumference.
midpoint = ((0 + 0)/2, (3 + -4)/2)
midpoint (0, -0.5)
Then, we get the radius by determining the distance from either of the circumferential point to the center.
radius = √(0 - 0)² + (3 +4)² = 7
The equation for the circle would be,
x² + (y + 0.5)² = 7²
So the original price is "x".
the discounted price by 10% is P(x) = 0.9x.
the price minus a $150 coupon is C(x) = x - 150.
so, if you go to the store, the item is discounted by 10%, so you're really only getting out of your pocket 90% of that, or 0.9x, but!!! wait a minute!! you have a $150 coupon, and you can use that for the purchase, so you're really only getting out of your pocket 0.9x - 150, namely the discounted by 10% and then the saving from the coupon.
C( P(x) ) = P(x) - 150
C( P(x) ) = 0.9x - 150
