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.

Parallelogram ABCD has vertices at A(-2,3), B(4,3), C(-1,1). What is the length of side AB? Answer choices ;
telo118 [61]

Answer:

D)6 units

Step-by-step explanation:

the answer is D because since side AB have the same y coordinate then you would have to either subtract or add the x. if one point on x is negative and the other is positive then you would add. but if they were both positive or both negative then you would subtract the x.

Which has more power: odds or evens? Why?
Elis [28]

Answer:

Answer in the explanation section

Step-by-step explanation:

Even numbers create symmetry, but odd numbers create interest. An odd number of details is more effective at capturing your gaze. Odd numbers force your eyes to move around the grouping and by extension, the room. That forced movement is the heart of visual interest.

An even number is a number that can be divided into two equal groups. An odd number is a number that cannot be divided into two equal groups. Even numbers end in 2, 4, 6, 8 and 0 regardless of how many digits they have (we know the number 5,917,624 is even because it ends in a 4!). Odd numbers end in 1, 3, 5, 7, 9.

To me i think Odd numbers have more power

if this is wrong i'm sorry

Hope this helps

Suppose the number of gallons of gasoline per day used by a car is normally distributed with a mean of 2.2 gallons and a standar
const2013 [10]
The difference in gallons per day used is 3.6.

The formula to calculate a z-score is:
z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma},

where X is the value used to calculate the score, μ is the mean and σ is the standard deviation.  We have the z-scores so we must work backward:

3=\frac{X-2.2}{1.2}\text{ and }0=\frac{X-2.2}{1.2}

For both equations, we will cancel the 1.2 by multiplying both sides:
3\times1.2=(\frac{X-2.2}{1.2})\times1.2\text{ and }0\times1.2=(\frac{X-2.2}{1.2})\times1.2
\\
\\3.6=X-2.2\text{ and }0=X-2.2

Now we will cancel 2.2 from both equations by adding it to both sides:

3.6+2.2=X-2.2+2.2     and       0+2.2=X-2.2+2.2
5.8=X     and       2.2=X

The difference in gas used per day would be given by
5.8-2.2 = 3.6.

A destroyer on patrol spots an aircraft at an altitude of 10,000 ft and an angle of elevation of 20⁰. How far is the aircraft fr
Reika [66]

sin= \frac{opp}{hyp} \\\\sin (20) = \frac{10000}{hyp}\\\\hyp= \frac{10000}{sin(20)} \\\\hyp= 29238 ft

The aircraft is 29238 ft from the ship

//

Note: this is based on my assumption that we are looking for the hypotenuse.

If we are looking for the adjacent side, then the answer would be 27475 ft.
