0.85y

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of the wrist watch = $y

Present percentage = 100%

Percentage Loss = 15%

Selling price = (Present percentage - Percentage Loss) * Cost of the wrist watch

= (100% - 15%) * y

= 85% * y

= 85/100 * y

= 0.85 * y

= 0.85y

Selling price = 0.85y

step-by-step explanation:

the correct option is 2.

step-by-step explanation:

according to the given information triangle abc is a right angle triangle with right angle at a. segment ab is 5 and segment ac is 7. point d is on segment bc and angles adb and adc are right angles.

it is given that triangles abd, cad, and cba are similar.

two triangles are similar if their corresponding sides are proportional.

in triangle cba, using pythagoras theorem

                      )

triangle abd and cba are similar,

                            (2)

triangle cad and cba are similar,

                      )

using (1), (2) and (3), we get

hence proved.

therefore option 2 is correct.
