Khan sold his cycle at loss of 8%.had He sold it for 240 more he would have gained 12%. Then cost price is $ 1200 and selling price is $ 1104

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Assume the cost price be "a"

So the selling price of cycle = a - 8% of a

\text { selling price }=a-\frac{8 a}{100}=\frac{23 a}{25}

Now according to given, had He sold it for 240 more he would have gained 12%

Selling price + 240 = cost price + 12% profit

\frac{23a}{25} + 240 = a + \frac{12a}{100}

\frac{23a + 6000}{25} = \frac{100a + 12a}{100}\\\\92a + 24000 = 112a\\\\20a = 24000\\\\a = 1200

So the cost price is $ 1200

Now the selling price = \frac{23a}{25} = \frac{23 \times 1200}{25} = 1104

So the selling price is $ 1104

7^16/7^12=7^-18/? what is the missing denominator
creativ13 [48]
\bf \left.\qquad \qquad \right.\textit{negative exponents}\\\\&#10;a^{-{ n}} \implies \cfrac{1}{a^{ n}}&#10;\qquad \qquad&#10;\cfrac{1}{a^{ n}}\implies a^{-{ n}}&#10;\qquad \qquad &#10;a^{{{  n}}}\implies \cfrac{1}{a^{-{{  n}}}}\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\

\bf \cfrac{7^{16}}{7^{12}}=\cfrac{7^{-18}}{x}\implies x\cdot 7^{16}=7^{12}\cdot 7^{-18}\implies x\cdot 7^{16}=7^{12-18}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;x\cdot 7^{16}=7^{-6}\implies x=\cfrac{7^{-6}}{7^{16}}\implies x=\cfrac{7^{-6}\cdot 7^{-16}}{1}\implies x=7^{-6-16}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\boxed{x=7^{-22}}\implies x=\cfrac{1}{7^{22}}
