Question not well presented

Point S is on line segment RT . Given RS = 4x − 10, ST=2x−10, and RT=4x−4, determine the numerical length of RS

Answer:

The numerical length of RS is 22

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

RS = 4x − 10

ST=2x−10

RT=4x−4

From the question above:

Point S lies on |RT|

So, RT = RS + ST

Substitute values for each in the above equation to solve for x

4x - 4 = 4x - 10 + 2x - 10 --- collect like terms

4x - 4 = 4x + 2x - 10 - 10

4x - 4 = 6x - 20--- collect like terms

6x - 4x = 20 - 4

2x = 16 --- divide through by 2

2x/2 = 16/2

x = 8

Since, RS = 4x − 10

RS = 4*8 - 10

RS = 32 - 10

RS = 22

Hence, the numerical length of RS is calculated as 22

Emily purchased lemons for $600. She sold 3/4 of these at a loss of 20% and the remaining at a gain of 20%. How much percent doe
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

10%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: CP of lemon is $600.

           3/4 of lemon sold at 20% loss

           Remaining lemon at 20% gain.

Considering the quantity of lemon remain constant.

Cost price of 3/4 of lemon= \frac{3}{4} \times 600= \$450

As given, 3/4 of lemon sold at 20% loss.

∴ Selling price of \frac{3}{4}\ of\ lemon=  450- \frac{20}{100}\times 450

Selling price= 450- 90= \$ 360

Hence, selling price of 3/4 lemon is $360.

Now, the cost price of remaining lemon (1-\frac{3}{4} )= (\$ 600-\$ 450)

∴ The cost price of \frac{1}{4}\ lemon = \$ 150

As given, remaining \frac{1}{4} lemon\ sold\ at\ gain\ of\ 20\%

∴ Selling price of \frac{1}{4} \ lemon= (150\times \frac{20}{100}+150)

Selling price of \frac{1}{4} \ of\ lemon= (30+150)

Hence, selling price of 1/4 lemon is $180

Loss\profit percent= \frac{(SP-CP)}{CP} \times 100

∴ Loss\profit percent= \frac{60}{600} \times 100= 10\%

Hence, the loss percentage is 10%
