Answer:

£1.31

Step-by-step explanation:

5:7:12

5x+7x+12x= 216
24x= 216
x= 9

small : medim : large = 45 : 63 : 108

45y+63*2y+108*3y= 648.45
y(45+126+324)= 648.45
495y= 648.45
y= 648.45/495
y= £1.31 profit for small cake

Answer:

£1.31

Step-by-step explanation:

The cakes are sold in the ratio 5 : 7 : 12 = 5x : 7x : 12x ( x is a multiplier )

sum the parts of the ratio, 5x + 7x + 12x = 24x

Equate 24x to the number of cakes sold, that is

24x = 216 ( divide both sides by 24 )

x = 9

Thus cakes sold are

5x = 5 × 9 = 45 small cakes

7x = 7 × 9 = 63 medium cakes

12x = 12 × 9 = 108 large cakes

let p represent the profit on a small cake, then

45p + 63(2p) + 108(3p) = 648.45 , that is

45p + 126p + 324p = 648.45

495p = 648.45 ( divide both sides by 495 )

p = 1.31

That is the profit on one small cake is £1.31

Suppose you invest $750.00 in a fund earning 6% simple discount. A certain time later you withdraw the investment (principal and

barxatty [35]

Answer:

4.08 + 2 = 6.08 years

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

Simple Interest(S.I.) = (P × R × T) ÷ 100

where, P = Principal = 750

R = Rate = 6%

T = unknown

⇒ S.I. = (750 × 6 × t)÷ 100

⇒ S.I. = 45t

Also, Amount = S.I + Principal

⇒ Amount = 750 + 45t

Now Formula for Compound Interest is:

$A = P(1+\frac{r}{100})^{t}$

where A = Amount

=1000

P = Principle

r = rate

t = total number of year

Here, P = 750 + 45t, r = 3.5% , and t = 2.

Putting all these values in above formula:

$1000 = (750 + 45t)(1+\frac{3.5}{100})^{2}$

⇒ $1000 = (750 + 45t)(1.071)$

⇒ t = 4.08

Hence, total time required will be 2 + 4.08 = 6.08 years.

Two separate bacteria populations grow each month and are represented by the

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

Option 4.) month 4

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$f(x)=3^{x}$ ----> equation A

$g(x)=7x+6$ ----> equation B

Solve the system by graphing

Remember that the solution is the intersection point both graphs

The solution is the point (3,27)

That means -----> For x=3 months, the populations in both functions are the same (the bacteria populations is 27)

therefore

For x> 3 months the f(x) population is greater then the g(x) population
