Answer:

25 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost price = 60 Ghana cedis for 50 metres

Selling price = 1.50 cedis for 1 meter

x cedis for 50 meters

Cross multiply

Selling price = 75 cedis

Profit = Selling price - Cost price

75 - 60

Profit = 15

Profit % =

$\frac{profit}{cost \: price} \times \frac{100}{1} \\ \frac{15}{60} \times \frac{100}{1} \\ \\$

Profit % = 25 %

Answer:

$4x^{2}$ -13x+10

Step-by-step explanation:

(4x+5)(x-2)

Multiply each term in the first parenthesis by each term in the second (foil)

Step 1: Expand it by writing out each multiplication. I added a picture showing which order to do it. (go in order of green, red, blue, yellow.) (you can remember this as first, outside, inside, last.)

When you expand it'll look like: 4x⋅x+4x⋅-2-5x-5⋅-2

Step 2: Calculate product

4x⋅x+4x⋅-2-5x-5⋅-2 (for the 4x⋅x it would be written like $4x^{2}$ )

$4x^{2}$ +4x⋅-2-5x-5⋅-2

$4x^{2}$ +4x⋅-2-5x-5⋅-2 (4x⋅-2 becomes -8x) (multiply 4x times -2)

$4x^{2}$ -8x-5x-5⋅-2

$4x^{2}$ -8x-5x-5⋅-2 (-5⋅-2 becomes +10) (multiply -5 times -2)

$4x^{2}$ -8x-5x+10

Step 3: collect like terms

$4x^{2}$ -8x-5x+10 (-8x-5x becomes -13x) (-8x times -5x)

$4x^{2}$ -13x+10 is the most simplified so it should be your final answer

Please help me answer this question!!! and explain bc im very stupid and my grades are low. 15 points

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The top angle is 90 degrees, so I would assume that m<1 is 90 degrees. Plugging this into the equation gives us 90 = 4y + 22. Subtract 22 from both sides, and we get 68 = 4y. Divide both sides by 4, and we get 17 = y.

In the figure below, points M, P, H, J, and K lie in plane Z.

Answers:

(a) LN
(b) PHJ
(c) K
(d) HK

===================================================

Explanation:

Part (a)

Lines LN and PN have the point N in common. This is the intersection point.

-----------------

Part (b)

To name a plane, pick any three non-collinear points that are inside it. We cannot pick points H, J, K together because infinitely many planes pass through it. Imagine the piece of flat paper able to rotate around this axis (like a propeller). Having the points not all on the same line guarantees we form exactly one unique plane.

I'll pick the non-collinear points P, H and J to get the name Plane PHJ. Other answers are possible.

------------------

Part (c)

Points H, J and K are collinear as they are on the same line. Pick either H or K to fill out the answer box. I'll go with point K

------------------

Part (d)

Point P and line HK are coplanar. They exist in the same flat plane, or on the same sheet of flat paper together.

We can think of that flat plane as the ground level while something like point N is underground somewhere. So point N and anything on that ground plane wouldn't be coplanar.

Note: there are other possible names for line HK such as line JH or line JK. The order doesn't matter when it comes to naming lines.
