A used-car dealer sold one car at a profit of 25 percent of the dealer's purchase price for that car and sold another car at a l

Daniel [21]

Answer:

C. 1000 loss.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent purchase price of each car.

We have been given that a used-car dealer sold one car at a profit of 25 percent of the dealer's purchase price for that car and sold another car at a loss of 20 percent of the dealer's purchase price for that car.

We can represent the car that dealer sold with 25% profit to find purchase price as:

$x+0.25x=20,000$

$1.25x=20,000$

$\frac{1.25x}{1.25}=\frac{20,000}{1.25}$

$x=16,000$

Therefore, the purchase price of 1st car was $16,000.

We can represent the car that dealer sold with 20% loss to find purchase price as:

$x-0.20x=20,000$

$0.80x=20,000$

$\frac{0.80x}{0.80}=\frac{20,000}{0.80}$

$x=25,000$

Therefore, the purchase price of 2nd car was $25,000.

The total purchase price of both cars would be $16,000+25,000=41,000$

The total sale price of both cars $20,000+20,000=40,000$ .

We can see that the sale price of both car is less than purchase price by $1000, so the dealer got a loss of $1000.

Therefore, the dealer's total loss, in dollars, for the two transactions combined was 1000 and option C is the correct choice.

Choose the product. -6p3(3p2 + 5p - 1) -18p5 - 30p4 + 6p3 -18p6 - 30p3 - 6p 18p3 + 6p2 - 30p4 -18p6 - 24p3

wlad13 [49]

-6p^3(3p^2 +5p -1) = -18p^5 -30p^4 +6p^3

so this is the right answer sure

A fruit stand sells apples, peaches and tomatoes. Today, they sold 4 apples for every 5 peaches. They sold 2 peaches for every 3

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

He sold 32 apples, 40 peaches and 60 apples.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

4 apples are sold every 5 peaches and

3 tomatoes are sold every 2 peaches.

i.e. the ratio is apples: peaches = 4 : 5 ...... (1)

and the ratio peaches: tomatoes = 2 : 3 ...... (2)

Peaches are the common link here in both the ratio terms.

Let us make the peaches value in both the ratio as 10 to make it equal in both the ratio terms.

Multiply (1) by 2 and (2) by 5:

The ratio becomes;

apples:peaches = 8:10

peaches: tomatoes = 10:15

In other words, the ratio becomes:

apples:peaches:tomatoes = 8:10:15

Let the number of apples = $8x$

Let the number of peaches = $10x\\$

Let the number of tomatoes = $15x$

We are given that total fruits are = 132

$\Rightarrow 8x+10x+15x = 132\\\Rightarrow 33x = 132\\\Rightarrow x =4\\$

So, number of apples sold = $8 \times 4 = 32$

Number of peaches sold = $10 \times 4 = 40$

Number of tomatoes sold = $15 \times 4 = 60$
