Step-by-step explanation and answers:
300 articles at a total cost of $1500:
$1500 / 300 = $5 / article
Sells 260 articles at a price 20% above this ^ price:
20% of $5 is $1, so $5 + $1 = $6
Then he sells 260 articles at the price of ^ $6
260 * $6 = $1560
Each of the remaining articles is sold at a price that's 50% of the 260 he sold.
He sold those for $6, so he would now sell the last 40 for $3
From the remaining 40 articles, he makes 40 * $3, or $120
The shopkeeper made $1560 + $120 = $1680, which is $180 more than he bought them for ($1500)
Therefore, he made a profit percentage of $180 / $1500, (the amount of profit over the amount spent).
He made a profit percentage, compared to the cost price, of 12%.
Answer:
31.7 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
The area (A) of the triangle is calculated as
A = 
absinC
where a, b are the 2 sides given and C the angle between them
∠ C = 180° - (72 + 59)° = 180° - 131° = 49° , thus
A = 0.5 × 12 × 7 × sin49° ≈ 31.7 cm² ( to 1 dec. place )
