Answer:
0.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
A shop keeper sells an article for 400
He purchases it for 402.
Therefore, loss = cost price - selling price
402 - 400 = 2
% loss =
loss/cost price x 100%
2/402 x 100%
= 200/402
=0.498
=0.5%
Answer:
x=4 and y=1
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation 1) 3x+8y=20
Equation 2) 5x+3y=23
Equation 1) 5(3x+8y=20 )
Equation 2) 3(5x+3y=23)
15x+40y=100
15x+9y=69
(Take away 40y from 9y and 100 from 69)
31y = 31
y=1
Substitute y=1 into equation 1)
3x+8=20
(Take away 8 from both sides)
3x=12
(Divide by 3)
x=4
Your answer is 1 and 7/8.
Answer:
Waylon's Purchase will cost $198.05, and section B depends.
Explanation: Section A is 85% of 233 since thats the total, making the answer to section A $198.05. The answer to section B depends because if he wants more school supplies, then yes, he would want to buy more things for better deals. But if he’s on a budget, then he wouldn't want to spend as much money since saving 20% on something over $300 is more than saving 15% on something over $200.
