An article when sold at a profit of 5% yields Rs 50 more than when sold at a loss of 5%. What was the cost price of the article?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

  Rs 500

Step-by-step explanation:

For cost c, the price that gives a 5% profit is ...

  c + 5%·c = 1.05c

The price that gives a 5% loss is ...

  c -5%·c = 0.95c

The difference of these prices is Rs 50:

  1.05c -0.95c = 50

  0.10c = 50 . . . . simplify

  c = 500 . . . . . . . divide by 0.1

The cost price of the article is Rs 500.

A local rectangular shaped pool used by lap swimmers has dimensions 25 yd by 26 yd and is 5.1 feet deep. Find the cost for filling the pool if the city charges $1.50 per 1000 gallons. Use the conversion 1 gallon = 0.134 cubic ft.
Round your answer to two decimal places.

Answers

The cost for filling the pool if the city charges $1.50 per 1000 gallons is $333.97

Given:

Length = 25 yd

width = 26 yd

Height = 5.1 ft

convert yard to feet

25 yd = 75 ft

26 ft = 78 ft

Volume of the pool = length × width× height

= 75 × 78 × 5.1

= 29,835 cubic ft

1 gallon = 0.134 cubic ft.

222,649.3 gallon = 29,835 ft

charges per 1000 gallon = $1.50

Total charges = 222,649.3 gallon / 1000 gallon × $1.50

= 222.6493 × 1.50

= 333.97395

Approximately,

$333.97

Therefore, the cost for filling the pool if the city charges $1.50 per 1000 gallons is $333.97

8. What are the solutions to this system
of equations?
3x + y = -1
2x + y=0
Identify the Nature of the Solution, Show
all work below.

-

Answers

Answer:

Below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + y = -1

2x + y=0

Subtract to eliminate y:

3x - 2x + y - y = -1 - 0

x = -1

So, substituting for x in the first equation;

3(-1) + y = -1

y - 3 = -1

y = 2.

The solution is the ordered pair (-1, 2).

The system is a pair of straight lines which intersect at the point (-1, 2).

Mr.Hickory’s Tree farm spent $2,300 on seeds and supplies to grow 80 trees. Write an inequality to determine how much Mr. Hickory needs to charge for each tree in order to make a profit of at least $2500.

Answers

Mr. Hickory needs to charge more than $60 for each tree in order to make a profit of at least $2500

Let x represent the amount of money charge for each tree.

The cost of growing the trees is $2300.

The revenue = 80x

Profit = Revenue - cost

Hence, to make a profit of at least $2500:

80x - 2300 ≥ 2500

80x ≥ 4800

x ≥ 60

Mr. Hickory needs to charge more than $60 for each tree in order to make a profit of at least $2500.

What is the number pattern?

A number pattern is a pattern in a series of numbers that represents the common relationship between the numbers.

When all the terms of a geometric sequence are added, then that expression is called geometric series.

We are given the series as;

3, 4, 7, 16, 11, 64, …

If we separate the numbers that in order are in the even place of the odd ones, we would have :

3, 4, 7, 16, 11, 64,..

If we finish in 1 then they increase by 1 in 1, while in 2.- they increase in odd numbers, the following number is: 55

The correct option is A.

!! PLEASE ANSWER ALL OF THE QUESTIONS !!

Answers

Answer:

  a) 49

  b) 84

  c) (B) -- always odd

Step-by-step explanation:

We observe that the number of square tiles is the square of the pattern number. The number of circular tiles is 1 more than the pattern number on each side of the square.

  square tiles = n²

  circular tiles = 4(n +1)

__

a)

7² = 49 square tiles are needed for pattern number 7.

__

b)

4(20+1) = 84 circular tiles are needed for pattern number 20.

__

c)

The parity of the number of square tiles matches the parity of the pattern number. (The square of a number has the same parity as the number.) Since 4 is a factor in the number of circular tiles, its parity is always even. The parity of the total number of tiles will match the parity of the pattern number.

When the pattern number is odd, the total number of tiles will always be odd. (B)

For the time 9 onwards they travel concurrently,

Let x be the distance covered by both since they can only meet if they covered the sams distance,

x/50 = x/40 -1 ,where the 1 is the (8-9) 1 hr

Option D:  [tex]\displaystyle\mathsf{-\frac{4}{5}\:\leq\:x}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

GIven the following inequality statement:

[tex]\displaystyle\mathsf{7x\:+\:6\:\geq \:\frac{-x}{2}}[/tex]

Start by eliminating the fraction on the right-hand side.

Multiply both sides of the inequality statement by 2:

[tex]\displaystyle\mathsf{2(7x\:+\:6)\:\geq \:\bigg[\frac{-x}{2}\bigg](2)}[/tex]

2(7x + 6) ≥ -x

Next, distribute 2 into the terms inside the parenthesis:

14x + 12 ≥ -x

Subtract 12 from both sides:

14x + 12 - 12 ≥ -x - 12

14x  ≥ -x - 12

Add x to both sides:

14x + x  ≥ -x + x - 12

15x ≥ - 12

Divide both sides by 15 to isolate x:

[tex]\displaystyle\mathsf{\frac{15x}{15}\:=\:\frac{-12}{15}}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle\mathsf{x\geq -\frac{4}{5}}[/tex] or  [tex]\displaystyle\mathsf{-\frac{4}{5}\:\leq\:x}[/tex]

Therefore, the correct answer is Option D:  [tex]\displaystyle\mathsf{-\frac{4}{5}\:\leq\:x}[/tex]
