The longest diagonal

Mathematics
1 answer:
Ratling [72]3 years ago
8 0
The diagonals are:
diagonal₁=2x+3y
diagonal₂=(x+8)+(2y+5)
We have to solve the following system of equations:
2x=3y
(x+8)=(2y+5)
We solve this system by substitution method:
2x=3y  ⇒x=3y/2

(3y/2 +8)=2y+5
3y+16=4y+10
-y=-6
y=6

x=3y/2=3*6/2=9

we obtain the measure of the diagonals:
diagonal₁=2x+3y=2*9+3*6=18+18=36
diagonal₂=(x+8)+(2y+5)=(9+8)+(2*6+5)=17+17=34

Answer: The longest diagonal is 36 units.

A shopkeeper marked the price of an article a certain percent above the cost price and he allowed 16% discount to make 5% profit
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

let the MP be x

sp without vat =x-16%of x

= 21x/25

sp with VAT = 21x/25 +13% of 21x/25

rs 9492 = 2373x/2500

( 9492*2500)/2373=x

x = 10000

cp = ((21x/25 )*100)/100+5 ( 5= profit percent )

=8000

(10000-8000)×100%/8000

=25%

inn [45]

Answer:

In the graph we can find two points, lets select:

(2, 15) and (4, 30)

Those are the first two points.

Now, for two pairs (x1, y1) (x2, y2)

The slope of the linear equation y = s*x + b that passes trough those points is:

s = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

So the slope for our equation is

s = (30 - 15)/(4 - 2) = 15/2

then our linear equation is

y = (15/2)*x + b

now we can find b by imposing that when x = 2, y must be 15 (for the first point we selected)

15 = (15/2)*2 + b = 15 + b

b = 15 - 15 = 0

then our equation is:

y = (15/2)*x

Where we used a division and a multiplication.
