Answer: Alex earned $87.5 more than Ben

Step-by-step explanation:

Last year,Alex earned a monthly salary of $250. This year, he received a pay increase of 25%. It means that the amount by which his pay was increased is

25/100 × 250 = 62.5

His new monthly salary would be

250 + 62.5 = $312.5

Last yearBen earned a monthly salary of $180. This year, he also received a pay increase of 25%. It means that the amount by which his pay was increased is

25/100 × 1800 = 45

His new monthly salary would be

180 + 45 = $225

The difference between the amount earned by Alex and Ben monthly is

312.5 - 225 = $87.5

by selling a mobile set of rupees 4800 Ramesh gains 25% how much will have we gained by selling it at rupees 4080​
Crank

Answer:

240

Step-by-step explanation:

Gain=25%

Gain=selling price - cost price

Gain = ((selling price - cost price )× 100)/ cost price

25c=(4800-c)100

25c=480000-100c

125c=480000

cost price = 3840

second statement

The selling price was 4080

Cost price 3840

therefore

Gain=selling price - cost price

Gain = 4080-3840

=240

2x+3y=1 and y=-2 - 9 solve using linear combination method. Please explain steps.
kaheart [24]

Answer:

x=17

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+3y=1

y=-2-9

  • In order to combine these two equations, an idea you need to keep in mind is finding a way of setting these equations as equal to each other. I saw that each equation shared a common value, y. In this case, we need to isolate y in the first equation so that both equations =y.

2x+3y=1

3y=-2x+1

\frac{3y}{3}=\frac{-2x+1}{3}

y=-\frac{2}{3}x+\frac{1}{3}

  • With this, we now know that both -2-9 and -\frac{2}{3}x+\frac{1}{3} are equal to y, so we can set them equal to each other.

y=-\frac{2}{3}x+\frac{1}{3}

y=-11

-\frac{2}{3}x+\frac{1}{3}=-11

  • Reply to this if anything I'm saying or doing is confusing in any way, or if you find a mistake. :) Solve for x.

-\frac{2}{3}x+\frac{1}{3}=-11

-\frac{2}{3}x=-11-\frac{1}{3}

-\frac{2}{3}x =-\frac{33}{3}-\frac{1}{3}

-\frac{2}{3}x =-\frac{34}{3}

-\frac{2}{3}x(-\frac{3}{2})=-\frac{34}{3}(-\frac{3}{2})

x=\frac{102}{6}=17

x=17

  • Hopefully this answer is correct AND makes sense in terms of how I achieved it. Again, reply to this with any questions or mistakes I made and I'll do my best to answer or fix them.
