AI Thread Summary
Ace Formal Wear has an invoice of $27,700 with terms of 3/20, n/30. After making a partial payment of $7,400 on the discount date, a 3% discount applies to that payment, totaling $222. This results in a net amount due of $27,478 after the discount is applied. The remaining balance reflects the original invoice minus the discounted payment. The calculation confirms the importance of understanding payment terms for accurate financial management.

Here is the second question.

Seemingly by some mathematical coincidence, a hexagon of sides 2,2,7,7, 11, and 11 can be inscribed in a circle of radius 7. The other day I saw a math problem on line, which they said came from a Polish Olympiad, where you compute the length x of the 3rd side which is the same as the radius, so that the sides of length 2,x, and 11 are inscribed on the arc of a semi-circle. The law of cosines applied twice gives the answer for x of exactly 7, but the arithmetic is so complex that the...
