To tackle this problem, we first need to ascertain the commission taken by the pizza shop and how much money belongs to Mindy. We know that Mindy sells her artwork for $15, and the pizza shop retains a 15% commission. Therefore, the commission is calculated as (15/100) * 15, which equals 2.25 dollars. This means the pizza shop deducts $2.25 from each art sale made by Mindy. Consequently, the amount Mindy receives is (15 - 2.25), resulting in $12.75. Since Mindy opts not for cash but instead chooses a pizza valued at $12, including a 5% sales tax, it seems she benefits by $0.75 plus the pizza worth $12. Therefore, this arrangement appears fair for Mindy. Meanwhile, the pizza shop also makes an additional $2.25 from this transaction, making it equitable for both Mindy and the shop owner.

The solution is found in the image attached below.

136 = x. In detail: When an angle is presented, the angle opposite corresponds to the first equation. The angles at the bottom equal a total of 360, so calculating 46 x 2 = 92. Subtracting 92 from 360 gives 268. Dividing that by 2 yields one of the larger angles as 134 degrees. The upper angle correlates to the lower one, therefore, 136 = x.

The circumcenter of the triangle is at the coordinates (2,1). To find this, we can outline the triangle based on the coordinates of points A (-1,5), B (-1,-3), and C (5,-3). Utilizing the distance formula helps us confirm that the triangle satisfies Pythagoras' theorem, hence it is a right triangle. In a right triangle, the circumcenter is located at the midpoint of the hypotenuse, which is determined to be (2,1).

Assume that the number of overdue days for the library book is X, and the total fine is Y.

Liability charges a fee of $0.30 per day for lateness,

Thus, for one day late, the fee equals: 1 * $0.30

For X days late, the fee becomes: X * $0.30.

The total fee Y corresponds to being X days late, so: Y = 0.30 * X.

Next, we'll verify which possible answers satisfy the equation Y = 0.30 * X.

Options one (-3, -0.9) and two (-2.5, -0.75) are invalid since the number of late days cannot be negative, and these give negative values for X.

Option three (4.5, 1.35) is also incorrect because the library charges per whole day; 4.5 days is not an integer, so they would charge 4 or 5 days, not 4.5.

Option four (8, 2.40) matches the equation perfectly:

Y = 0.30 * X

2.40 = 0.30 * 8

2.40 = 2.40.

Therefore, the only correct answer is option four (8, 2.40).
