Answer:

The cost price of the article is Rs 1050

The marked price of the article Rs 1200

Step-by-step explanation:

The given discount on the article = 20%

The amount loss  = Rs 90

With a discount of 5% the amount gained = Rs 90

Let the cost price of the article = X

Let the marked price of the article = Y

Therefore, we have;

(1 - 0.2) × Y = X - Rs 90

(1 - 0.5) × Y = X + Rs 90

Which gives;

0.8·Y = X - Rs 90 .......................(1)

0.95·Y = X + Rs 90.....................(2)

Subtracting equation (1) from equation (2), we have;

0.95·Y-0.8·Y = X + Rs 90 - (X - Rs 90) = X - X + Rs 90 + Rs 90 = Rs 180

0.15·Y = Rs 180

Y = Rs 180/0.15 = Rs 1200

Therefor, the marked price of the article = Rs 1200

From;

0.8·Y = X - Rs 90, we have;

0.8×Rs 1200 = X - Rs 90

X = 0.8× 1200 + 90 = Rs 1050

Therefore, the cost price of the article = Rs 1050.

Answer:

  62

Step-by-step explanation:

The enclosing rectangle is 24 units long and 12 units high. Its area is ...

  (24 units)(12 units) = 288 square units

The white circles obviously cover more than half the area, so the only viable answer choice is 62.

__

If you want to go to the trouble to actually figure it out, you can find the area of each circle using the area formula ...

  A = πr² = (3.14)(6²) = 113.04

Then both circles have an area of 2×113.04 = 226.08, and the shaded area is the difference between that and the rectangle area:

  shaded area = 288 -226.08 = 61.92 ≈ 62

What is the area of a section of pavement that is 20 ft wide and 70 yd long?
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

A = 4200 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the formula for area is

A = l*w

We need to have the same units

convert yd to ft

1 yd = 3ft

Multiply each by 70

70 yds = 210 ft

A = 210 *20

A = 4200 ft^2
