<h3>Answer:</h3>

15.3%

<h3><u>In Order</u>:</h3>

1) Lotte buys 50 cans for £17.

2) Sells 32 cans for 50 penny each.

3) Sells remaining for 20 penny each.

<h3>Solve:</h3>

<u>Total cost for 32 cans</u>:

price of each can × total cans

50 penny × 32

1600 penny

Remaining Cans : 50 - 32 = 18 cans

<u>Total cost of this 18 cans</u>:

20 penny × 18

360 penny

\boxed{\bf 100 \ penny \ (p) = 1 \ pound \  ( \sf  \£ )}

Total Gained : 1600 + 360 = 1960 pence ≈ £19.6

Profit : <u>selling price - cost price</u> : 19.6 - 17 = £2.6

Profit In percentage:

\sf \dfrac{(selling \ price - cost \ price)\ x \ 100}{cost \ price}

\rightarrow \sf \dfrac{2.6\ x \ 100}{17}

\rightarrow \sf 15.294 \%

\rightarrow \sf 15.3 \% \  \ (rounded \ to \ nearest \ three \ significant \ figure)

Answer:

£15.7

Step-by-step explanation:

32 cans x 50P = 1600p

1600p to Pounds = £26.66 (1600 divided by 60)

Remaining cans = 18 (50 - 32)

18 cans x 20p = 360p

360p to Pounds = £6 (360 divided by 60)

£26.66 + £6 = £32.66

£32.66 (Profit) - £17 (Cost of cans) = £15.66

15.66 to 3SF = 15.7

Last month, when Joe took his puppy to the veterinarian, the puppy weighed 6.2 pounds. This month, the puppy weighed 8.68 pounds
djyliett [7]
D because 6.2=100
6.2×1.4=8.68
so 100×1.4=140
140-100=40
so it's 40%

A company offers its employees the choice of two contracts. The first contract gives an initial salary of 15000/year rising it b
sladkih [1.3K]
To answer this question, start by identifying the total amount of income after 5 years for the first contract.
Since you start with 15,000 and get 1000 more each year, write an expression that represents this relationship.
15000 + 1000(5)

Multiply the parenthesis to begin to simplify your expression.
This leaves you with:
15000 + 5000

Add to find the total salary after five years with the first contract.
This ends up with:
$20,000

For the second contract, you have a diffferent rate of increase. Start by finding what one percent of the initial salary is. To do this, divide 14000 by 100.
14000/100 = 140
Then to find ten percent, multiply that number by 10.
140 x 10 =1400

So, each year you add 1400 dollars to the salary.
Now, using this information, set up an expression to model the salary for contract 2 after 5 years.
This should leave you with:
14000 + 1400(5)

Begin to simplify by multiplying what’s in the parenthesis.
1400 x 5 = 7000
Now rewrite your expression:
14000 + 7000

Add to find the total salary after 5 years with contract 2.
14000 + 7000 = 21000

So the salary with contract 2 is $21,000.



So, since $21000 is $1000 more than just $20000, contract 2 is the better option. I hope this helps! :)

What is the equation of a line perpendicular to -x +2=y that intersects the line at (-1.5, 3.5)?​
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

y=x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y=-x+2

slope of y=-x+2 is -1, perpendicular slope is 1

y-3.5=1(x-(-1.5))

y-3.5=x+1.5

y=x+5
