The company paid $2000 for the printer

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the price of the printer for which the company bought it.

If x is the price of printer, then 25% of x will be the profit made by the company.

That is:

0.25x

According to the statement,

The cost and profit earned by company are equal to 2500

So,

x+0.25x = 2500\\1.25x = 2500

Dividing both sides by 1.25

\frac{1.25x}{1.25} = \frac{2500}{1.25}\\x = 2000

Hence,

The company paid $2000 for the printer

a boat is going 144 miles upstream on a river. the speed of the boat in still water is 60 miles per hour. the speed of the river
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

Let  b  =  rate of the boat.

Let  r  =  rate of the river.

The rate going downstream is  b + r.

The rate going upstream is  b - r.

rate x time  =  distance

4(b + r)  =  144     --->     b + r  =  36     [divide both sides by 4]

9(b - r)  =  144      --->     b - r  =  16      [divide both sides by 9]

Add town:                          2b  =  52  

Divide by :                           b  =  26  mi/hr

                                           r  =  10  mi/hr
