Answer:

The answer is 42

Step-by-step explanation:

I might be doing this wrong, but if we multiply 40 by 30 to find the total area of the country (1,200 square miles), we can divide the total population (50,000) by each answer choice to find which answer is correct; 50,000/42 is equal to 1,190, the closest product to 1,200. I claim to have possibly done this wrong, but 42 was the correct answer I received on the quiz -- hope I helped!

Solve the system of equations y=5x-1 y=9x-9
Leto [7]

Answer:

Look at the equations:

y

=

−

9

x

−

21

and

y

=

5

x

+

7

Because both equations equal (y), they both equal the same.

If an equations says "

y

=

−

9

x

−

21

" , that means we can replace (y) with

−

9

x

−

21

.

Therefore when i take the equation:

y

=

5

x

+

7

, we can replace (y) to get:

−

9

x

−

21

=

5

x

+

7

Now isolate (x):

−

9

x

−

21

=

5

x

+

7

⇔

−

21

=

14

x

+

7

⇔

−

28

=

14

x

⇔

x

=

−

Find the coordinates of the centroid of triangle RST. SHOW YOUR WORK so I can see if the answer makes sense (no links)
zimovet [89]

Note the coordinates of each point: R(-4, 5), S(5, 1), T(2, -3).

The centroid is the point whose coordinates are the average of the coordinates of R, S, and T.

<em>x</em>-coordinate: (-4 + 5 + 2)/3 = 3/3 = 1

<em>y</em>-coordinate: (5 + 1 - 3)/3 = 3/3 = 1

So the centroid is (1, 1).

A man buys a certain number of Litchies at 20 per rupee and equal number at 30 per rupee. He
ANTONII [103]

Full question :

A man buys a certain number of oranges at 20 for Rs. 60 and an equal number at 30 for Rs. 60. He mixes them and sells them at 25 for Rs. 60. What is the gain or loss percent?

Answer:

4% loss(percentage loss on cost price)

Step-by-step explanation:

we will be employing algebra in solving this problem :

20 oranges at 60 Rs=60Rs/20 per orange=3Rs per orange

Say x oranges bought at 3Rs per orange=3Rsx

Equal number of oranges at 30 oranges for 60 Rs=60Rs/30 per orange=2Rs per orange

Say x oranges bought at 3Rs per orange=2Rsx

Total Cost Price = 3Rsx + 2Rsx = 5Rsx

He then sells all oranges at 25 for 60 Rs

Therefore price per orange=60/25=12/5Rs

since he sold x+x oranges(from the above calculations)

Total selling price=total oranges *12/5Rs=2x oranges*12/5Rs=24x/5Rs

Profit or loss=24x/5-5x=-x/5

therefore we have a loss =-x/5

Percentage of loss(on cost price)

=x/5÷5x∗100=

=1/25∗100=4%
