Answer:

<em>The cost price of each mango was $3</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The man bought 500 mangoes, but 1/4 of them were rotten. There were 1/4*500 = 125 rotten mangoes, thus the number of mangoes he sold is

500 - 125 = 375 mangoes

Selling them at $3.36 each, he had revenue of

375*3.36=$1,260

That amount includes the 12% profit, that is, it's 112% of the cost price, thus the cost price of all mangoes is

1,260 / 112 * 100 = $1,125

The price of each mango was $1,125 / 375 = $3

The cost price of each mango was $3

Answer:

All of the options apply.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the example given in the question, it is stated that mothers' smoking during pregnancy can affect childs' IQ and can cause lower scores on test.

All of the given options can be given as evidence for the link between smoking and lower IQ. The diet especially throughout childhood has significant effect on the development of the brain and the prefrontal cortex.

The psychological condition that the child is in, the environment in the house that he/she grows up in affects the IQ and the EQ.

The IQ can be affected by outside factors but it also has a relation with the genes that the child takes from his/her parents.

The socioeconomic status of the mother can affect the environment that the child grows up in, the people he/she interacts with and the opportunities that he/she gets to stimulate the brain in different ways to encourage growth.

I hope this answer helps.
