Answer:

6.25%

Step-by-step explanation:

We first begin by solving for the original price of the cell phone.

if 2400 = 125%

x = 100%

By cross multplying, we get

125x = 2400 * 100

x = 240000/125

x = 1920rs

To find the profit percentage on the new sale price, we repeat another set of equations

100% = 1920

x = 2040

1920x = 2040 * 100

x = 204000/1920

x = 106.25%

His new profit percentage is 6.25%

You get in an elevator and go down 8 floors. You exit on the 16th floor. Write and solve an equation to find what floor you got

disa [49]

So floor that you started is x
go down 8 means -8
end on 16

so
x-8=16
add 8
x=24

started on 24

ruslelena [56]

If you need to solve for y
10y-12=4
10y=12+4
10y=16
y=16/10=8/5=1 3/5 or 1.6

Graph the first six terms of a sequence where a1 = −10 and d = 3.

Neko [114]

notice the first term is -10, and the common difference is 3, so we add 3 to get the next term.
