Answer:

Let the cost price be x

  • Selling price, S.P. = 130
  • Gain % = 30%

\rm{C.P. = \dfrac{S.P. \times 100}{100+ gain \% }}

\rm{C.P. = \dfrac{130 \times 100}{100+30}}

\rm{ C.P. = \dfrac{130}{30} }

\large{\boxed{\rm{ C.P. =  \dfrac{13}{3}}}}

A certain quadratic function has the factors
olganol [36]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

If those two functions are the factors of a quadratic, then each of them can be equated to 0 to find the roots. Sometimes the roots are called the zeros.

2x - 5 = 0                       Add 5 to both sides

2x - 5 + 5 = 0 + 5           Combine

2x = 5                             Divide both sides by 2

2x/2 = 5/2

x = 5/2

You don't really have to find the other factor's 0 point. There is only 1 option that makes x = 5/2. On a test, it is important to take short cuts and save time.  I'll find the other root anyway because this is not a test.

3x + 4 = 0                           Subtract 4 from both sides

3x + 4-4 = 0 - 4                  Combine

3x = - 4                               Divide both sides by 3

3x/3 = - 4/3

x = - 4/3

anna has 300naira and ojo has 1860naira.if anna saves 50 naira a day and ojo spends 70 a day, after how many days will they have
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

Anna and Ojo will have same amount after 13 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Anna has 300 naira

She saves 50 naira per day.

Let,

x be the number of days.

y be the amount saved

y = 50x + 300

Ojo has 1860 naira

He spends 70 naira per day.

Let,

x be the number of days

y be the amount left

y = 1860 - 70x

For equal amount, the equations will be equal

50x +300 = 1860 - 70x

50x + 70x = 1860 - 300

120x = 1560

Dividing both sides by 120

\frac{120x}{120}=\frac{1560}{120}\\x=13

Hence,

Anna and Ojo will have same amount after 13 days.
