A shopkeeper purchased 60 pencil boxes for 4.500 and sold at the rate of 4.125 for 50 pencil boxes. How
much profit present does he make on selling all the pencil boxes?
5%
7%
10%
12%

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 10%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the shopkeeper purchased 60 pencil boxes for 4,500, he purchased them at the rate of:

= 4500 / 60

= 85 per pencil box

If the shopkeeper sold them at the rate of 4,125 for 50 pencil boxes, then he sold them at the rate of:

= 4125 / 50

= 82.50 per pencil box.

Therefore the percentage profit will be:

= Gain / Cost price × 100

= (82.50 - 75) / 75 × 100

= 7.5/75 × 100

= 10%

In the diagram below of triangle HJKHJK, LL is a midpoint of \overline{HJ}HJ and MM is a midpoint of \overline{JK}JK. If LM=71-9xLM=71−9x, and HK=23-xHK=23−x, what is the measure of LMLM?​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since J is the midpoint of HK,  then HJ=JK   and 3x+5=9x-3  solve for x

6x=8   x=8/6=4/3     so HJ=3x+5=3(4/3)+5=9 = JK   HK=2(9)=18

the full segment HK is 18,  each half of it is 9 =HJ=JK

whats the solution

Answers

Answer:

x = 13/8

Step-by-step explanation:

(4x−1)(2)=11

Simplify both sides of the equation.

(4x−1)(2)=11

(4x)(2)+(−1)(2)=11 (Distribute)

8x+−2=118x+−2=11

8x−2=11

Add 2 to both sides.

8x−2+2=11+2

8x=13

Divide both sides by 8.

8x/8 = 13/8

which brings you to the answer of

x = 13/8

Answers

i hate these questions lol her name do be karen sorry um you do multiplicaton for this question i hate aleks expesially thqat question i feel you bro

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: it’s all in the explanation!

Step-by-step explanation:

So, in the question, it states that she’s gunna have two tables for every six guests. You’re gonna need to find out how much people are going to be at ONE table, so two divided by six! And as you know, that equals three. For the first space, since it’s a odd number, you need to use the three instead of six since there’s gunna be one table by itself. So three times 5. The first space is gunna be 15 :). The second space is somewhat the same process. What times three equals 21? Seven! So for the second space, you’re gunna pit seven. For the third one, you do 8 times three, which equals 24. And for the last space, it’s 10, for three times ten :), hoped this helped!

Find the missing dimension of the triangle. A triangle with base labeled b, height labeled 6 feet, and height labeled 14 square feet.

Answers

Answer:

4.67 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of missing dimension of the triangle is given below:

As we know that

Area of the triangle = 1 ÷ 2 × base × height

14 = 1 ÷ 2 × base × 6

14 = 3 × base

So, the base is

= 14 ÷ 3

= 4.67 feet

Here we assume the area to be 14 square feet

Answer:

4⅔ or 4.67 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a triangle is ½bh

½×b×6=14

3b=14

14÷3=4⅔

The table shows the height of a softball that Hallie threw in the air. Is the relationship shown linear? Why or why not?
••no links just answers••
I know it's not linear but I dont know why.​

Answers

Answer:

Not a linear relationship

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The attached table

Required

Linear or not

To do this, we simply calculate the slope of the table at different intervals.

Slope (m) is calculated as:

[tex]m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]

Let:

[tex](x_1,y_1) = (0,0)[/tex]

[tex](x_2,y_2) = (0.5,7.2)[/tex]

So, the slope is:

[tex]m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{7.2 - 0}{0.5-0}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{7.2}{0.5}[/tex]

[tex]m = 14.4[/tex]

Let:

Let:

[tex](x_1,y_1) = (1,10.7)[/tex]

[tex](x_2,y_2) = (2,12.2)[/tex]

So, the slope is:

[tex]m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{12.2 - 10.7}{2 - 1}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{1.5}{1}[/tex]

[tex]m = 1.5\\[/tex]

See that the calculated slopes are not equal.

Hence, it is not linear

(a) For what value(s) of c will the system have exactly one solution (x,y)?

(b) For what value(s) of c will the system have more than one real solution?

(c) For what value(s) of c will the system have no real solutions?

Solutions to the quadratics are (x,y) pairs. Your answers will be in terms of c, but make sure you address both x and y for each part.

Answer:

  (a)  c = 4

  (b)  c < 4

  (c)  c > 4

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) The solutions to the system of equations can be found by substituting one expression for y into the other equation:

  3x^2 -5x = 2x^2 -x -c

  x^2 -4x +c = 0 . . . . . . . subtract the right side expression

The discriminant is

  d = b^2-4ac = (4)^2 -4(1)(c) = 16-4c.

The system will have exactly one solution when d = 0.

  16 -4c = 0

  4 -c = 0

(b) There will be more than one real solution when d > 0

  4 -c > 0

If the attached is a parallelogram, then:

Either segment of a diagonal are equal; So, we have:

[tex]3x = 12[/tex]

[tex]x + y = 5y[/tex]

In [tex]3x = 12[/tex]

Divide both sides by 3

[tex]x = \frac{12}{3}[/tex]

[tex]x = 4[/tex]

Substitute [tex]x = 4[/tex] in [tex]x + y = 5y[/tex]

[tex]4 + y = 5y[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]5y - y =4[/tex]

[tex]4y = 4[/tex]

Divide both sides by 4

[tex]y = \frac{4}{4}[/tex]

Yield on this bond

Computation:

Yield on bond = [Annual interest / Face value]100

Yield on this bond = [Annual interest receives from bond / Face value of bond]100

Find the measure of minor arc KL.
(x - 1)
G
H (5x + 7)04

Answers

Answer:

m(minor arc KL) = 153°

Step-by-step explanation:

"Measure of intercepted arcs between two diameters are equal in measure"

By this property,

m(JK) = m(HL)

(7x - 1)° = (5x + 7)°

7x - 5x = 7 + 1

2x = 8

x = 4

Therefore, m(arc HL) = (5x + 7)

                                  = 5(4) + 7

                                  = 27°

Now measure of minor arc KL = m(arc KH) - m(arc HL)

                                                  = 180° - 27°

                                                  = 153°

Therefore, measure of minor arc KL is 153°
