Answer:

<u>Yes, Sanjay made a 20% profit.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Price of a pen bought by Sanjay = x

Price of packet of 12 pens bought by Sanjay = 12x

Price of packet of 10 pens sold by Sanjay = 12x

Price of pen sold by Sanjay = 12x/10 = 1.2x

Difference between price of pen sold and price of pen purchased = 1.2x - x = 0.2x

0.2 = 20%

<u>Therefore, the profit per pen is 20%</u>

. Marcus has 50 tokens to spend at the school
eimsori [14]

Answer:

The ordered pair (6,3) can not be a solution for the problem situation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Marcus has total 50 tokens to spend at the carnival.

Now, given that the Ferris wheel costs 7 tokens and  the carousel costs 5 tokens.

So, if Marcus play the Ferris wheel for x times and the carousel for y times, the total expenditure will be given by

7x + 5y = 50 ............ (1)

Now, the ordered pair (6,3) i.e. x = 6 and y = 3 does not satisfy the above relation equation (1).

So, the ordered pair (6,3) can not be a solution for the problem situation. (Answer)
