<span>1,295.01 is the correct answer</span>
Answer:
2% gain
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume the shopkeeper bought the appliances at the indicated prices, and that gain is computed on the basis of that cost price.
Since the base cost is the same for each appliance, the percentages can be added directly to find the percentage gain on 8000. However, the shopkeeper's total outlay was 16000, not 8000, so the final gain percentage is half of that total.
gain percent = (-4% + 8%)/2 = 2%
_____
If you want to see the actual numbers:
Loss on VCR = 4% × 8000 = 320.
Gain on TV = 8% × 8000 = 640.
Total gain on 16000 is -320 +640 = 320. As a percentage, that is ...
320/16000 × 100% = 2%
16.7 is the answer rounded to the nearest tenth.
Answer:
m∠M = 79°
m∠N = 66°
Step-by-step explanation:
∠MPN is supplementary to ∠MPQ, so m∠MPN = 35
The sum of the measures of a triangle is 180.
So, m∠M + m∠N + m∠MPN = 180
5y + 4 + 4y + 6 + 35 = 180
9y + 45 = 180
9y = 135
y = 15
m∠M = 5y + 4 = 5(15) + 4 = 75 + 4 = 79
m∠N = 4y + 6 = 4(15) + 6 = 66
Another way to do this problem, which is easier, is to know that an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two remote interior angles.
That means 5y + 4 + 4y + 6 = 145
9y + 10 = 145
9y = 135
y = 15
From knowing the value of y you can now find the measures of angles M and N
