Solution:

<span>20 % profit on $ 1.20 </span>

= $ 20/100 × 1.20

= $ 0.20 × 1.20

<span>= $ 0.24 </span>

<span>Similarly, 20 % loss on $ 1.20 </span>

= $ 20/100 × 1.20

= $ 0.20 × 1.20

= $ 0.24

Therefore, in one pipe his profit is $ 0.24 and in the other pipe his loss is $ 0.24.

Since both profit and loss amount is same so, it’s broke even.

one taco supreme and two pan pizzas provide 3850 calories. Two taco supremes and one pan pizza provide 3770 calories . Find the
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

Taco supreme is 1230 calories

Pan pizza is 1310 calories

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's denote taco supreme as T and pan pizza az P. We have:

T+2*P = 3850 and 2*T + P = 3770

If we add the equations we get 3*T+3*P = 7620

3*(T+P) = 7620

T+P = 2540 => we can use T=2540-P

Back to one of the first equations we get 2540-P+2*P=3850

P=3850-2540= 1310

=>T= 2540-1310= 1230

Compare and contrast expanding and simplifying algebraic expressions with simplifying numeric expressions. For example, compare
larisa [96]
<span>With algebraic expressions, you can’t add and subtract any terms like you can add and subtract numbers. Terms must be like terms in order to combine them. So, you can’t always simplify an algebraic expression by following the order of operations. You have to use the distributive property to rewrite the expression and then combine like terms to simplify. With numeric expressions, you can either simplify inside the parentheses first or use the distributive property first.</span>

The scale factor from Figure A to Figure B is 4

<h3>How to determine the scale factor from Figure A to Figure B?</h3>

From the question, we have the following statement:

Figure B is a scaled copy of Figure A.

The corresponding side lengths of figure A and figure B are:

Figure A = 10

Figure B = 40

The scale factor from Figure A to Figure B is then calculated as:

Scale factor = Figure B/Figure A

Substitute the known values in the above equation

Scale factor = 40/10

Evaluate the quotient

Scale factor = 4

Hence, the scale factor from Figure A to Figure B is 4
