Answer:

400$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let C.P. of the watch = Rs. 100

When profit =5%; S.P. = Rs. (100+5)

= Rs. 105

and when profit = 11%;

S.P. = Rs. (100+11)

=Rs.111

Difference of two selling prices

= Rs. 111-Rs.105 = Rs.6

When watch sold for Rs. 6 more; then C.P. of the watch = Rs.

100

When watch sold for Rs. 24 more; then C.P. of the watch = Rs.

100

= Rs.

100

=400

10. Simplify the rational expression by rationalizing the denominator. 3 sqrt 160/sqrt 1350x A) 2 sqrt 15x/15x B) 3 sqrt 160/135

Viefleur [7K]

The simplified expression by rationalizing the denominator is (C) $\frac{4 \sqrt{15x} }{15x}$ .

First we must simplify the expression:
$\frac{3 \sqrt{160} }{\sqrt{1350x} } = \frac{12 \sqrt{10} }{15 \sqrt{6x} } = \frac{4 \sqrt{10} }{5 \sqrt{6x} }$

Then we factor the rational parts and cancel it out:
$\frac{4 \sqrt{2} \sqrt{5} }{5 \sqrt{2} \sqrt{3x} } = \frac{4\sqrt{5} }{5\sqrt{3x} }$

Then we rationalize the expression:
$\frac{4\sqrt{5} }{5\sqrt{3x} } * \frac{\sqrt{3x} }{\sqrt{3x} } = \frac{4 \sqrt{15x} }{5*3x} = \frac{4 \sqrt{15x} }{15x}$

Finally, the simplified expression by rationalizing the denominator is (C) $\frac{4 \sqrt{15x} }{15x}$ .

A wooden board 100 centimeters long is cut into two pieces. One piece is 16 centimeters longer than the other. What are the leng

Bezzdna [24]

x = the length of one piece

y = the length of the other piece

the total length is 100 cm this means

x + y = 100

one piece is 16 inches longer than the other

first we need to convert inches to cm:

1 in = 2.54 cm

16 in = 2.54*16 = 40.64

now we can write

x = y + 40.64

by solving the system of equations

x + y = 100

x = y + 40.64

we find

x = 70.32 cm

y = 29.68 cm

the lengths of the two pieces are 70.32 cm and 29.68 cm.

Plllllllllllease heeeeelp

Answer:

SA = 967.6 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface Area of cylinder = $2\pi r h + 2\pi r^2$

Where r = 7 cm, h = 15 cm

=> SA = 2(3.14)(7)(15)+2(3.14)(7)²

=> SA = 659.7 + 2(3.14)(49)

=> SA = 659.7 + 307.9

=> SA = 967.6 cm²
