9. An article was sold at a profit of 12%. Had it been sold for Nu 80 more, there would be a profit of

Kamila [148]

Answer:

The cost price of the article was Nu 1,000

The original selling price was Nu 1,120

The second selling price was Nu 1,200

Step-by-step explanation:

System of Equations

Let's call:

x = Original selling price of the article

y = Cost of the article

The first condition implies that the difference between the selling price and the cost price (the profit) is 12%. Recall the profit % is always calculated with respect to the cost, that is, the profit at the first condition is:

0.12y = Original profit

Setting up the equation, we have:

$x-y=0.12y$

The second condition states the selling price is 80 Nu more than before, that is:

x+80= Second selling price of the article

y = Cost of the article (it doesn't change)

The profit of this condition is 20%, thus:

0.2y = Second profit

This produces a second equation:

$x+80-y=0.2y$

Let's put both equations together to form a system of equations:

$x-y=0.12y$

$x+80-y=0.2y$

Operating on both equations:

$x=1.12y$

$x=1.2y-80$

Equating both equations, we have an equation with only y's:

$1.12y=1.2y-80$

Subtracting 1.2y on each side:

$1.12y-1.2y=-80$

Operating:

$-0.08y=-80$

Solving:

$\displaystyle y=\frac{-80}{-0.08}=1,000$

a)

The cost price of the article was Nu 1,000

b) The selling price of the article will be calculated in both cases:

Original selling price: x=1.12y= 1.12*1000=1,120

The original selling price was Nu 1,120

The second selling price was x+80=1,200

The second selling price was Nu 1,200

Answer: $\frac{2A}{f} -2=f$

Step-by-step explanation:

A=1/2(r+2)

2A=f(r+2)

2A/f=r+2

2A/f-2=r

One container is filled with mixture that is 25% acid. A second container is filled with a mixture that is 55% acid. The second

algol13

Answer:

Therefore the third container contains $\frac{735}{17}\%$ = 43.23 % acid.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that, One container is filled with the mixture that 25% acid. 55% acid is contain by second container.

Let the volume of first container be x cubic unit.

Since the volume of second container is 55% larger than the first.

Then the volume of the second container is

$= (V\times \frac{100+55}{100})$ cubic unit.

$=\frac{155}{100}V$ cubic unit.

The amount of acid in first container is

$=V\times \frac{25}{100}$ cubic unit.

$=\frac{25}{100}V$ cubic unit.

The amount of acid in second container is

$=(\frac{155}{100}V \times \frac{55}{100})$ cubic unit.

$=\frac{8525}{10000}V$ cubic unit.

Total amount of acid $=(\frac{25}{100}V+\frac{8525}{10000}V)$ cubic unit.

$=(\frac{2500+8525}{10000}V)$ cubic unit.

$=(\frac{11025}{10000}V)$ cubic unit.

Total volume of mixture $=(V+\frac{155}{100}V)$ cubic unit.

$=\frac{100+155}{100}V$ cubic unit.

$=\frac{255}{100}V$ cubic unit.

The amount of acid in the mixture is

$=\frac{\textrm{The volume of acid}}{\textrm{The amount of mixture}}\times 100 \%$

$=\frac {\frac{11025}{10000}V}{\frac{255}{100}V}\times 100\%$

$=\frac{735}{17}\%$

Therefore the third container contains $\frac{735}{17}\%$ acid.

A restaurant buys mustard in 3/4 pound jars. If a 27 pound carton was bought, how many jars would be in the carton?

Nostrana [21]

Answer:

36

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide the carton weight by the weight of 1 jar

27 ÷ $\frac{3}{4}$

= 27 × $\frac{4}{3}$

= $\frac{27(4)}{3}$

= $\frac{108}{3}$

= 36

There are 36 jars in a carton
