Let the actual value of the stool be x.

So if the carpenter sells the stool x rupees he neither loses, now wins anything.

67.50 is the value x - 10% of x, that is:

67.50=x-0.1x
67.50=0.9x

x=67.50/0.9=75      (rupees) is the actual value of the stool.


Selling the stool for 82.50 rupees, the carpenter clearly would make a profit, say of y% of that actual value, that is y%*75.

So using the same method:

82.50=75+y%*75

y%*75=82.50-75=7.5

we can make the calculations, but clearly 7.5 is 10% of 75


Answer: 10% gain.

Stells [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

"The total number of dollars in fives and tens" tells you that these denominations are being added together.  Because a five dollar bill is worth $5 and a ten dollar bill is worth $10, then the number of $5 bills is represented by 5f and a the number of $10 bills is represented by 10t.  Therefore,

T = 5f + 10t

Line CD passes through points C(3, -5) and D(6, 0). What is the equation off three line CD in standard form?
Alina [70]
Standard form: Ax+By=C
first put in slope-intercept form:
slope = (0+5)/(6-3) = 5/3
pick point D: 0 = 5/3(6)+b -> b= -10
slope-intercept form: y=(5/3)x-10
multiply both sides by 3:
3y=5x-30
put in standard form:
5x-3y=30

Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation: So first you have to make this word problem into a equation into standard form so 20 is our (y) because that is the additional charge but our slope is 3 because that is what they charge per hr **when they say (per) usually the member with it is the slope** (sry I’m not the best explainer)
