Answer: CP = Rs 78.667

Step-by-step explanation:

The data given to us are

Selling price = Rs. 118

Profit percentage = 50

Now using the form formula

CP = ( SP * 100 ) / ( 100 + percentage profit).

Where;

Cp is cost price and Sp is selling price

So we input our numbers

CP = ( 118 × 100 ) / ( 100 + 50)

CP = 11800 / 150

CP = Rs 78.667

Write the equation of the line in slope intercept form that goes through points (1,8) and (5,20)
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

y=3x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

Point slope equation:

y=mx+b

m-slope, b- is y-intercept

equation given 2 points

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

For point (1,8) and slope m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) = 20-8/5-1=12/4=3

y-8 =3(x-1)

arange it in point slope format

y-8=3x-3

y=3x-3+8

y=3x+5

Problem 3: Let x = price of bag of pretzels Let y = price of box of granola bars  
We have Lesley's purchase: 4x+2y=13.50
 And Landon's: 1x+5y=17.55 
 We can use the elimination method. Let's negate Landon's purchase by multiplying by -1. -1x-5y=-17.55 
 We add this four times to Lesley's purchase to eliminate the x variable.
 2y-20y=13.50-70.2
 -18y=-56.7
 y = $3.15 = Price of box of granola bars
 
 Plug back into Landon's purchase to solve for pretzels.
 x+5*3.15=17.55
 x+15.75=17.55
 x = $1.80 = price of bag of pretzels
  
 Problem 4.
 Let w = number of wood bats sold
 Let m = number of metal bats sold
 
 From sales information we have: w + m = 23
 24w+30m=606 
 Substitution works well here. Solve for w in the first equation, w = 23 - m, and plug this into the second. 
 24*(23-m)+30m=606
 552-24m+30m=606
 6m=54
 m=9 = number of metal bats sold
 Therefore since w = 23-m, w = 23-9 = 14. 14 wooden bats were sold.

Solve the system of inequalities to decide if the point (-3,2) is part of the solution; y&lt;=-4x-3, +8y&gt;=7
inna [77]

Answer:

(x,y) = (-3,2) is a solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

y \le -4x + 3

x + 8y \ge 7

Required

Determine if (x,y) = (-3,2) is a solution

y \le -4x + 3 becomes

2 \le -4 * -3 + 3

2 \le 15 --- this is true

x + 8y \ge 7

-3+ 8 * 2 \ge 7

13 \ge 7 --- this is also true

Hence,

(x,y) = (-3,2) is a solution
