A trader sold a radio set for 72.00 making a profit of 8% .Find , correct to the nearest ghana cedis ,the cost price for the rad

VMariaS [17]

Given:

The selling price of a ratio set = 72.00

Profit percent = 8%

To find:

The cost price for the radio set.

Solution:

Let x be the cost price for the radio set.

Radio set is sold at 8% profit.

$\text{Selling price}=x+\dfrac{8}{100}x$

$\text{Selling price}=x+0.08x$

$\text{Selling price}=1.08x$

The selling price of a ratio set is 72.00.

$72=1.08x$

$\dfrac{72}{1.08}=x$

$x=66.666...$

$x\approx 67$

Therefore, the cost price for the radio set is 67.

Almost all medical schools in the United States require students to take the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT). To estimate

Leviafan [203]

Answer:

Probability of having student's score between 505 and 515 is 0.36

Given that z-scores are rounded to two decimals using Standard Normal Distribution Table

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know from normal distribution: z(x) = (x - Mu)/SD

where x = targeted value; Mu = Mean of Normal Distribution; SD = Standard Deviation of Normal Distribution

Therefore using given data: Mu (Mean) = 510, SD = 10.4 we have z(x) by using z(x) = (x - Mu)/SD as under:

In our case, we have x = 505 & 515

Approach 1 using Standard Normal Distribution Table:

z for x=505: z(505) = (505-510)/10.4 gives us z(505) = -0.48

z for x=515: z(515) = (515-510)/10.4 gives us z(515) = 0.48

Afterwards using Normal Distribution Tables and rounding the values to two decimals we find the probabilities as under:

P(505) using z(505) = 0.32

Similarly we have:

P(515) using z(515) = 0.68

Now we may find the probability of student's score between 505 and 515 using:

P(505 < x < 515) = P(515)-P(505) = 0.68 - 0.32 = 0.36

PS: The standard normal distribution table is being attached for reference.

Approach 2 using Excel or Google Sheets:

P(x) = norm.dist(x,Mean,SD,Commutative)

P(505) = norm.dist(505,510,10.4,1)

P(515) = norm.dist(515,510,10.4,1)

Probability of student's score between 505 and 515= P(515) - P(505) = 0.36

If b=5 what is b to the power of 5

Sonja [21]

Answer: 5^5 = 3125

Step-by-step explanation:

To the power of mostly means multiplying it by itself the number of times giving so for your problem it is 5 times itself 5 times so 5*5*5*5*5 = 3125

Find 2x2 − 2z4 + y2 − x2 + z4 if x = −4, y = 3, and z = 2.<br><br> Is -3 the correct answer?

Ket [755]

We're given the algebraic expression 2x^2 - 2z^4 + y^2 - x^2 + z^4

By hypothesis, x = -4, y = 3 and z = 2

Let's replace each letter by its given value:

2x^2 - 2z^4 + y^2 - x^2 + z^4
2(-4)^2 - 2(2)^4 + (3)^2 - (-4)^2 + (2)^4
(2*16) - 2*16 + 9 - 16 + 16
32 - 32 + 9 - 16 + 16
9

So wrong. The correct answer is not -3, but 9.

Hope this helps! :D
