Answer:

66

Step-by-step explanation:

The money he spent:

20 x 6 = 120

=> The number of flowers he bought:

=> 15 x 20 = 300

3/5 of 300 = 900/5 = 180

So, he sold 180 flowers for 70cents.

=> 180 x 70 = 12600 cents

=> 126  dollars

The remaining for 50 cents

=> 2/5 x 300 = 600 / 5 = 120

So, he sold 120 flowers for 50 cents

=> 120 x 50 = 6000 cents

=> 60 dollars

He got a total of 60 + 126 = 186 dollars.

He spent 120 dollars in the starting to buy the flowers.

=> 186 - 120

=> 66 dollars

So, he gets a profit of 66 dollars.

330

20 * 6 equals 120 that is the cost price

and 3/5 of the 15 flowers is 9 which was sold for 7

and the remaining that is 15 - 9 that's 6 sold for 50 each

now times it by 70 * 9 equals 630 50 * 6 equals 300 so 630 - 300 equals to 330 that is the profit

I hope this helps

Answer:

given

p=q^3

p=40

______

q=(p)^1/3

q=(40)^1/3-->q=2(5)^1/3

Now

the value of half of q , (2(5)^1/3)÷(2) ,is 5^1/3.

finally the value of p gonna be

p=q^3

p=(5^1/3) ^ 3

The arch of a bridge forms the upper half of an ellipse. The arch is 6 meters above the 20-meter-wide river. Write an equation f
aksik [14]

Answer:

\frac{x^2}{36} + \frac{y^2}{100} = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Required

The equation of the ellipse

This is calculated as:

\frac{x^2}{a^2} + \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1

Where:

b =6 ---- height

a = 0.5 * 20 =10 --- width

So:

\frac{x^2}{a^2} + \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1

\frac{x^2}{6^2} + \frac{y^2}{10^2} = 1

\frac{x^2}{36} + \frac{y^2}{100} = 1

Answer:

  • scale factor: 3
  • rule: (x, y) ⇒ (3x +15, 3y -24)
  • center: (-7.5, 12)

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale factor can be found by comparing the length of CB to the length of RQ.

  B-C = (-2, 8) -(-4, 9) = (2, -1)

  Q-R = (9, 0) -(3, 3) = (6, -3)

The length of RQ is clearly 3 times the length of CB, so the scale factor (k) is ...

  ratio of corresponding differences = 6/2 = -3/-1 = 3 . . . . . scale factor

__

We know that for dilation about a point O, the distance from O is multiplied by the scale factor. For dilation of point B to point Q, this means ...

  k(B -O) = (Q -O)

Solving for Q, we get ...

  Q = kB -kO +O . . . . this is what our dilation rule will look like.

The quantity O-kO can be found by subtracting kB:

  Q -kB = O -kO = O(1 -k)

This is what we need for our dilation rule.

  Q -kB = (9, 0) -3(-2, 8) = (9+6, 0-24) = (15, -24)

So, our dilation rule is ...

  (x, y) ⇒ k(x, y) +(15, -24)

  (x, y) ⇒ (3x +15, 3y -24) . . . . . dilation rule

__

The center of dilation can be found from ...

  (Q -kB)/(1 -k) = O

  O = (15, -24)/(1 -3) = (-7.5, 12)

The center of dilation is (-7.5, 12).

_____

<em>Additional comments</em>

On the graph, the center of dilation can be found by drawing a line through a point and its image. (Points are always dilated along a line through the center of dilation.) The intersection of two such lines is the center of dilation.

On this graph, the center is just above the top edge of the chart, at point (-7.5, 12). You can see this if you carefully draw lines BQ and AP.

You usually have coordinates for two original points and two image points, so finding the scale factor the way we did is not difficult. If you just have one point on the original and the image, the scale factor is found by finding their distances from the center of dilation. Each image point is k times as far as each original point from that center.

Svetach [21]

Answer:

∠U = 40°

Step-by-step explanation:

in order to find the missing angle of U we need to know the two other angles.

We know that ∠T is 65° and we know that ∠TSF is 105°. Because ∠TSF is an exterior angle, we can subtract 180 to get the interior angle. This would mean that ∠S is 75°.

Using this we can add 65 to 75 then subtract the total from 180 to get ∠U.

This would mean that ∠U is 40°
