Answer:

Cost price of each cup = 1500/6 = 250

Selling price of each cup = 1650/5 = 330

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost price of cups = 1500

Profit = 10%

Selling price of cups = ?

Profit and loss percentage are calculated based on cost price and the formula to calculate profit is mentioned as under:

Profit percentage (%) = Profit x 100/Cost price

10 = Profit x 100/1500

⇒ Profit = 10 x 1500/100

⇒ Profit = 150

The formula for finding selling price is mentioned as under:

Selling Price = Profit + Cost Price.

Selling Price = 150 + 1500

⇒ Selling Price = 1650.

Since one of the six cups was broken that means the seller earned profit based on only 5 cups, it implies that selling price of each cup will be 1650/5 = 330.

I need help with my algebra 2. I also want to know how to solve this.
Lisa [10]

Add 1 to both sides:

\sqrt{x+3} = x+1

In cases like this, we have to remember that a root is always positive, so we can square both sides only assuming that

x+1 \geq 0 \iff x \geq -1

Under this assumption, we square both sides and we have

x+3 = (x+1)^2 \iff x+3 = x^2+2x+1 \iff x^2+x-2 = 0

The solutions to this equation are

x = -2,\ x=1

But since we can only accept solutions greater than -1, we discard x=-2 and accept x=1.

In fact, we have

x=-2 \implies \sqrt{-2+3}-1=0\neq -2

and

x=1 \implies \sqrt{4}-1=1

which is the only solution.

The two angles are a linear pair.
(Explanations down below!)

Linear pair angles must add up to 180 degrees. You can tell that the two angles add up to 180 degrees because they form a straight line (which is 180 degrees).

Complementary angles add up to 90 degrees. The two angles are not complementary because they do not form a 90 degree angle (right triangle, square in corner, like a L shape).

Vertical angles are opposite each other and are equal to one another. These angles are adjacent to each other and do not look similar.

klio [65]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find the radius

r =d/2 = 15.8/2 = 7.9 cm

The area of a circle is given by

A = pi r^2

   = pi ( 7.9) ^2

   =62.41 pi

Using 3.14 for pi

195.9674  

To the nearest hundredth

195.97

Using the pi button

196.0667975

To the nearest hundredth
