8 0

Answer:

320

Step-by-step explanation:

2 out of 5 is the ratio 2/5.

We want the denominator to become 800.

$\dfrac{800}{5} = 160$

$160 \times 2 = 320$

$\dfrac{2}{5} = \dfrac{2 \times 160}{5 \times 160} = \dfrac{320}{800}$

Since 2/5 = 320/800, he will need to prepare 320 cups of soup.

If a chair costs 734 dollars and I give it to my friend for 823 dollars how much is my profit as a percentage

kotegsom [21]

Answer:

$X=12.125\%$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Cost Price $CP=734$

Sale Price $SP=823$

Generally the equation for Profit P is mathematically given by

$Profit=SP-CP$

$P=823-734$

$P=89$

Therefore as a percentage

Percentage Profit X is given as

$X=\frac{89}{734}*100$

$X=12.125\%$

For the function f(t) =Pe^rt , if P= 7 and r= 0.07 then what is the value of f(7) to the nearest tenth?

White raven [17]

Answer:

A. 11.4

Step-by-step explanation:

$f(t) = P e^{rt}$

Data:

P = 7

r = 0.07

Calculation:

$\begin{array}{rcl}f(t) & = &Pe^{rt}\\f(7)& = & 7 e^{(0.07 \times 7)}\\ & = & 7 e^{0.49}\\& \approx & 7 \times 1.632\\ & \approx & \mathbf{11.4}\\\end{array}$
