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 scientist has two solutions, which she has labeled Solutuion A and Solution B. Each contains salt. She knows that Solutuion A
ratelena [41]

a = amount (in oz) of solution A

b = amount of solution B

The scientist wants a mixture of 110 oz, so

a + b = 110

Solution A consists of 65% salt, so each ounce of solution A contributes 0.65 oz of salt; similarly, each ounce of B contributes 0.9 oz. The mixture is supposed to consist of 75% salt, which amounts to 0.75 * (110 oz) = 82.5 oz of salt. So

0.65 a + 0.9 b = 82.5

Solve for a and b:

b = 110 - a

0.65 a + 0.9 (110 - a) = 82.5

0.65 a + 99 - 0.9 a = 82.5

0.25 a = 16.5

a = 66  ==>  b = 44
