Answer:27 pieces were sold at the original price.
63 pieces were sold at the new price
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of pieces of pottery that was sold at the original price.
Let y represent the number of pieces of pottery that was sold at the new price.
They sold some of their pottery at the original price of $9.50 for each piece. This means that the amount that they got from selling x pieces of pottery at the original price would be 9.5x
They later decreased the price of each piece by $2. This means that the new price was 9.5 - 2 = $7.5
This means that the amount that they got from selling x pieces of pottery at the new price would be 7.5y
If they sold all 90 pieces and took in $729, then the equations are
x + y = 90
9.5x + 7.5y = 729 - - - - - - - - - -1
Substituting x = 90 - y into equation 1, it becomes
9.5(90 - y) + 7.5y = 729
855 - 9.5y + 7.5y = 729
- 9.5y + 7.5y = 729 - 855
- 2y = - 126
y = - 126/- 2 = 63
Substituting y = 63 into x = 90 - y, it becomes
x = 90 - 63 = 27
Answer:
7.6%
Step-by-step explanation:
1141/15000 × 100 = 7.60667
but it's not an option...
the difference between 15000 and 16141 is 1141
Answer:
Index of refraction of transparent is 1.48
Step-by-step explanation:
Snell's law states that;
n1(sinθ1) = n2(sinθ2)
Where;
n1 and n2 represent the indices of refraction for the two media, and θ1 and θ2 are the angles of incidence and refraction that the ray R makes with the normal.
In this question;
n1 = 1;
θ1 = 43.8°
θ2 = 19.3°
n2 is unknown.
Thus using Snell's law, we have;
1 x sin 43.8 = n2 x sin 19.3
n2 = (sin 43.8)/sin 19.3
n2 = 1.48
Answer:
0.1 or 1/10
Step-by-step explanation:
The digits 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 are randomly arranged to form a three digit number, where the digits are not repeated.
This is question of permutation.
Imagine this sum as; there are 3 boxes(blank spaces for digits) and 5 different fruits(digits) are to be put in these boxes, where a box can hold a maximum of only 1 fruit. The number of such permutations are: ⁵P₃
By formula (a! is factorial a):
ᵃPₙ 
⁵P₃ 
⁵P₃ 
⁵P₃ 
⁵P₃= 60
This is the total count of possible numbers that can be formed.
Now, for a number to be greater than 800 and even; first digit should necessarily be 8. Last digit can be 4 or 6. Using these conditions, there are 6 possibilities. 854, 864, 874, 846, 856, 876 are the numbers.
The probability that number is even and greater than 800 is:
