Water is added or drained from a tank each day. The first day, 910 of a gallon is added to the empty tank. The second day, 710 o
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

The quantity of water in the tank after 15 days is 1610.0 gallons OR 1.61 × 10³ gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of water in the tank after 15 days is given by the series

910+(−710)+810+(−610)+⋯+310+(−110)+210

From the series, we can observe that, if water is added for a particular day then water will be drained the following day.

Also, for a day when water is to be added, the quantity to be added will be 100 gallon lesser than the quantity that was last added. Likewise, for a day when water is to be drained, the quantity to be drained will be 100 gallons lesser than the quantity that was last drained.

Hence, we can complete the series thus:

910+(−710)+810+(−610)+710(-510)+610(-410)+510(-310)+410(-210)+310+(−110)+210

To evaluate this, we  get

910-710+810-610+710-510+610-410+510-310+410-210+310-110+210

= 1610.0 gallons

Hence, the quantity of water in the tank after 15 days is 1610 gallons OR 1.61 × 10³ gallons.

If I buy a stereo for $245 and this includes GST of 10%, what is the pre-GST price?
Ivan

Answer:  $222.73

===========================================

Work Shown:

x = pre-GST price

10% of x = 0.10x = tax amount

x + 0.10x = 1.10x = post-GST price = 245

1.10x = 245

x = 245/1.10

x = 222.7272 approximately

x = 222.73 is the price before tax.

------------

Check:

10% of 222.73 = 0.10*222.73 = 22.273 = 22.27

The tax amount ($22.27) is added to the pre-GST price to get

22.27+222.73 = 245

which matches the post-GST price mentioned.

The answer is confirmed.

Or another way to confirm the answer is to calculate this

1.10*222.73 = 245.003 = 245
