7. A shopkeeper buys 300 identical articles a tota
sashaice [31]

Step-by-step explanation and answers:

300 articles at a total cost of $1500:

        $1500 / 300 = $5 / article

Sells 260 articles at a price 20% above this ^ price:

         20% of $5 is $1,   so $5 + $1 = $6

               Then he sells 260 articles at the price of ^ $6

               260 * $6 = $1560

Each of the remaining articles is sold at a price that's 50% of the 260 he sold.

         He sold those for $6,  so he would now sell the last 40 for $3

               From the remaining 40 articles, he makes 40 * $3, or $120

The shopkeeper made $1560 + $120 = $1680,  which is $180 more than he bought them for ($1500)

Therefore, he made a profit percentage of $180 / $1500,  (the amount of profit over the amount spent).

He made a profit percentage, compared to the cost price, of 12%.

Write a linear equation that passes through the points(2,-2) and (0,1)
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

Slope intercept: y = -3/2x + 1

Point slope: y + 2 = -3/2 * (x - 2) [Forgot to add the work for this, I will add it if you need it, feel free to ask.]

Step-by-step explanation:

m = (change in y)/change in x)

But also

m = y_2 - y_1/x_2 - x_1


So lets substitute

m = 1 - (-2)/0 - (2)

Lets find the slope

m = 3/0 - (2)

m = 3/-2

m = -3/2 (Moved the negative)

Now we find the value of b using the equation of a line.

y = mx + b

y = (-3/2) * x + b

y = (-3/2) * (2) + b

-2 = (-3/2) * (2) + b

Now we find the value of b

Lets rewrite

-3/2 * 2 + b = -2

Cancel the CF of 2

-3 + b = -2

Move the terms without b to the right

b = -2 + 3

b = 1

Now we substitute our values of the slope and y-int into y = mx + b to find the equation.

y = -3/2x + 1
