Answer:

The discriminant of this quadratic equation is less than zero.

This means the quadratic equation will have no real solution(s) and two complex solution(s).

Step-by-step explanation:

The discriminant is found using the formula b^2 - 4ac.

Therefore, the discriminant is (3)^2 - 4(2)(5), which yields -31.

Since the discriminant is negative, there are no real solutions.

A supplier sold a scanner machine for Rs 41,400 with 15% VAT after allowing 10% discount on it's marked price and gained 20%. By

victus00 [196]

Answer:

Selling price with VAT {15%} = Rs 41400

S.P +15% of S.P =Rs 41400

S.P(1+15%)=Rs 41400

S.P=Rs 41400/1.15

Selling price without VAT =Rs 36000

Again

Discount = 10%

M.P =S.P+ Discount % of M.P

M.P-Discount% of M.P= S.P

M.P(1-Discount%)=Rs 36000

M.P(1-10%)=Rs 36000

M.P=Rs 36000/0.9

Marked Price = Rs 40,000

again

Discount =Discount % of M.P

=10% of 40000

=Rs 4,000

Again

Profit=20%

For 20% profit

Cost price = (S.P*100)/(100+profit%)

=(36000*100)/(100+20)

= Rs 30000

For 24% profit

selling price = (100+profit%)*C.P/100

=(100+24)*30000/100

=Rs 37200

Again

Discount = 40000–37200 = Rs2800

Discount % = discount/M.P*100%

=2,800/40,000* 100 = 7%

Finally

Discount percent to be reduced =10%–7%= 3%

What is the Value of x+y ? PLZ Help ASAP

Natalija [7]

ANSWER

$x + y = 60$

EXPLANATION

Method 1

Vertically opposite angles are equal, therefore

$3x + 55 = 85$

This implies that,

$3x = 85 - 55$

We simplify to get,

$3x = 30$

Dividing through by 3 gives,

$x = 10$

Also,

$2y - 5 = 95$

This implies that,

$2x = 95 + 5$

We simplify the right hand side to get,

$2x = 100$

We divide both sides both sides by 2 to get,

$x = 50$

$x + y = 50 + 10$

$x + y = 60$

Method 2

Angles on straight line sums to 180°.

$2y-5+85=180$

This implies that,

$2y+80=180$

$2y=180-80$

$2y=100$

$y=50$

Also,

$3x+55+95=180$

$3x+150=180$

$3x=180-150$

$3x=30$

$x=10$

$x+y=50+10$

$x+y=60$
