original price of first typewriter = x
2970/x = 110/100
x = 2970 x 100/110 = 2700
Price of first typewriter = Rs 2700
Original price of second typewriter = y
2970/y = 90/100
y = 2970 x 100/90
y = 3300
Original price of second typewriter = 3300
profit from first typewriter = 2970 - 2700 = 270
Loss from second typewriter = 3300 - 2970= 330
270 less than 330
so he lost 330 - 270 = Rs 60 in whole transaction
Answer:
about 520,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Following directions, we evaluate the equation by putting the value where the variable is and doing the arithmetic.
__
The value of x will be the number of days between May 26 and May 12. That value is ...
x = 26 -12 = 14
Then the number of mosquitos is estimated to be ...
y = 230,000(1.06^14) ≈ 520,008
About 520,000 mosquitos will inhabit the city on May 26.
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
Typically, an "estimate" is one or two significant figures. So, 520,000 is a reasonable estimate. 520,008 has more precsision than can be justified.
Answer:
20% increase
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the percent increase, you can divide the increase value by the original: 30/25 = 1.2 --> 120%. Next, since they ask for the percent of increase, you can subtract 1 or 100% from your answer which would give you a final answer of 20% increase.
