Answer:
£160,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Alice bought the house in 2008 for £x.
In 2014, the house sold for a 20% profit, so it sold for 1.2x. (* see explanation below)
In 2019, the house sold for a 5% loss, so it sold for 0.95(1.2x). (* see explanation below)
In 2019, it sold for £182,400.
0.95(1.2x) = 182,400
1.14x = 182,400
x = 182,400/1.14
x = 160,000
Answer: £160,000
* Explanation of 1.2 and 0.95.
A quick way to apply a percent increase or decrease to a number is to using the following method. The number you start with is 100% of the number. If you are adding a percent to it, then add the percent to 100% and convert it to a decimal. If you are subtracting the percent, then subtract the percent from 100% and convert to a decimal. Then multiply the decimal by the original number to find the increased or decreased number.
Example of percent increase:
A book used to cost £10. The price went up by 12%. What is the new price?
100% + 12% = 112% = 1.12
1.12 * £10 = £11.20
Example of percent decrease:
A pair of trousers costs £60. It is on sale at 35% off the regular price. What is the sale price?
100% - 35% = 65% = 0.65
0.65 * £60 = £39
Answer:
180 square inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Area, A is given by A=0.5bh where b is base and h is height. Since both of these dimensions are provided then we substitute the given figures into the formula. Substituting 12 inches for base, b and 30 inches for height, h then the area will be equivalent to
A=0.5*12*30=180 square inches.
Therefore, the area of the described triangle is 180 square inches.
Formula for Perimeter of Rectangle:
P = 2(L + W)
Plug in 160:
160 = 2(L + W)
L = 4W
So we can plug in '4W' for 'L' in the first equation.
<span>160 = 2(L + W)
160 = 2(4W + W)
Combine like terms:
160 = 2(5W)
160 = 10W
Divide 10 to both sides:
W = 16
Now we can plug this back into any of the two equations to find the length.
L = 4W
L = 4(16)
L = 64
So the width is 16, and the length is 64.</span>
Answer:
1/3=33.33%?
Step-by-step explanation:
the only math I see is 1/3 and a random 0 near O's
To find the y intercept you must substitute 0 into x.
F(x) = (-3x0) - (6x0) - 5
F(x) = -5
To find the axis of symmetry and vertex we use the formula -b/2a to find the x coordinate
x = 6/(-3x2)
x = 6/-6
x = -1
Now we need to find the y coordinate so we sub -1 into x.
F(x) = (-3x-1) - (6x-1) - 5
F(x) = 3 + 6 - 5
F(x) = 4
The axis of symmetry and vertex are (-1,4) and the y coordinate is -5. Hope this helps.
