10. You want to buy popcorn at your local movie theatre and it costs $8.00. If the theatre has a 10% discount on popcorn, what will be the discount amount?

Discount is $0.8.                     hope this helps.

Step-by-step explanation:

100 % - 10 %= 90%

90% of $8.00

90/100 x 8

720/100

$7.2 is price after discount.

Discount is $8.00 - $7.2

                   $ 0.8

x = central angle apc = measure of minor arc ac

the two angles x and 30 add to 180, so x+30 = 180 and x = 180-30 = 150. the measure of minor arc ac is 150 degrees.

what we need to do from here is find the circumference and then multiply it by x/360 since there are 360 degrees in a circle. in this case, x = 150, so x/360 = 150/360 = 15/36 = 5/12. the shortest distance along the curve from a to c is 5/12 of the distance around the entire circle (aka circumference)

c = circumference

c = pi*d

c = pi*24

c = 24pi

now multiply this by 5/12 to get

distance along minor arc ac = (5/12)*(circumference)

distance along minor arc ac = (5/12)*(24pi)

distance along minor arc ac = 10pi

the formula you can use is

l = (x/360)*pi*d

with

l = length of minor arc

x = central angle

d = diameter

which essentially is the steps we took though a bit differently.
