sanjay sold an article at a loss of 25 percent if the selling price had been increased by rs 175.there would have been gain of 1

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

The cost price is Rs.500

Explanation:

<em>I'll approach this question by taking the statements in the question, one after the other</em>

Let the cost price be represented by CP

From the first statement:

Sanjay made a loss of 25%

The selling price (SP) is as follows;

$SP = CP - 25\% * CP$

Convert percent to fraction

$SP =CP - \frac{25}{100} * CP$

Get decimal equivalent

$SP = CP-0.25 * CP$

$SP = CP - 0.25CP$

$SP = 0.75CP$

From the second statement:

If the selling price was increased by 175%, Sanjay would make a profit of 10%

Hence; The new selling price is

$SP = 0.75CP + 175$

The selling price can also be calculated from the profit

$SP = CP + 10\% * CP$

Convert percent to fraction

$SP = CP + \frac{10}{100} * CP$

Get decimal equivalent

$SP = CP + 0.10 * CP$

$SP = CP + 0.10 CP$

$SP = 1.10 CP$

Equate both values of SP (SP = SP)

$1.10CP = 0.75CP + 175$

Collect Like Terms

$1.10CP - 0.75CP = 175$

$0.35CP = 1.75$

Divide both sides by 0.35

$CP = \frac{175}{0.35}$

$CP = 500$

<em>Hence, the cost price is Rs.500</em>

Geomagnetic reversals __________. Group of answer choices Provide strong evidence for sea floor spreading Reveal that polar wand

Igoryamba

Answer:

The answer is "Provide strong evidence for seafloor spreading".

Explanation:

The magnetic changes from east to west and vice versa are geomagnetic. geomagnetic reversals. And they can provide significant evidence of the expansion of sea bed in the rocks formed along the middle sea ridges by documenting the geomagnetic pattern of echo.

A new crust is developing from the magma explosion into the seafloor in the ocean along the mid-oceanic ridges along the mid-ocean ridges. When the magma cools, the minerals of ferromagnetism found in the magma will align as per the magnetosphere of this time.

In the event of geomagnetical revolutions, newly formed minerals will be reverse-aligned to early elements, thus registering the lithosphere on both sides of the mid-oceanic ridge. Lithosphere, one could argue, is a continual move away from oceanic crusts midway through.
