Answer:
<em>The man paid $200 for the cow</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>System of Equations</u>
Let's call:
x = price of the cow
y = price of the horse
The man bought the cow and the horse for $500, thus
x + y = 500 [1]
The cow was sold at a profit of 10%, thus:
Sale price of the cow= 1.1x
The horse was sold at a loss of 10%, thus:
Sale price of the horse= 0.9y
The total operation was a 2% loss, i.e. 0.98*500=490. Thus, we have:
1.1x + 0.9y = 490 [2]
From [1]:
y = 500 - x
Substituting in [2]:
1.1x + 0.9(500 - x) = 490
Operating:
1.1x + 450 - 0.9x = 490
0.2x = 490 - 450 = 40
x = 40/0.2
x = 200
The man paid $200 for the cow
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First you must find the number of cubic feet in the pool. (That's volume)
Formula
V = l*w*h
Givens
Solution
<em><u>Volume</u></em>
V = 38 * 22 * 8
V = 6688 cubic feet.
<em><u>Gallons</u></em>
1 cubic foot = 7.5 gallons
6688 ft^3 = x
<em><u>Proportion</u></em>
1/6688 = 7.5 / x Cross Multiply
x * 1 = 7.5 * 6688
x = 50160 gallons
For the second work sheet:
5 2/8 - 4 1/4= 1 so NO
8 3/4 - 7 1/2= 1 1/4 so YES
2 1/8 - 1 7/8= 1/4 so NO
9 5/12 - 8 1/6= 1 1/4 so YES
Sorry if its not enough explanation, hope it helps!
