Lucy buys 7kg of nuts to sell.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Nikitich [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Lucy's percentage profit = 33.33% based on Sales Value

and 50% based on Cost.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Calculations:

7kg = 7,000g of nuts

Cost of 7,000g = £10

350g = 20 bags (7,000/350)

Sales value = £15 (20 x 75p)

Profit = Sales value minus Cost

Profit = £5 (£15 - £10)

Profit percentage based on sales = Profit/Sales x 100 = 5/15 x 100 = 33.33%

Profit percentage based on cost = Profit/Cost x 100 = 5/10 x 100 = 50%

b) Profit is the excess of sales over cost.  There are two ways to express it in percentages.  Profit can be expressed as a percentage of the cost (Markup).  It can also be expressed as the percentage of the sales value (Margin).

There are 65 children in the sixth grade. The ratio of boys to girls 3 to 2. A) how many girls are in the grade?
Akimi4 [234]

Given that,

Total number of children = 65

The ratio of boys to girls is 3 :2.

To find,

The number of girls in the grade.

Solution,

Let there are 3x girls and 2x boys.

ATQ,

3x + 2x = 65

5x = 65

x = 13

So, no of girls = 3x

= 3(13)

= 39

Hence, there are 39 girls in the grade.

The graph below shows the solution to a system of inequalities: Solid line joining ordered pairs 0, 3.75 and 15, 0. Shade the po
algol [13]
(0,3.75)(15,0)
slope(m) = (0 - 3.75) / (15 - 0) = -3.75/15 = - 0.25 or -1/4

y = mx + b
slope(m) = -1/4
(15,0)...x = 15 and y = 0
now we sub
0 = -1/4(15) + b
0 = -15/4 + b
15/4 = b

y = -1/4x + 15/4
1/4x + y = 15/4....multiply by 4
x + 4y = 15.....and since it is a solid line, it contains an equal sign...and since it is shaded above the line, it is greater.
so ur inequality is : x + 4y > = 15 (thats greater then or equal)

Plz help.<br> find the solution for:<br> 9-3 | x-2 | = 4<br> will give brainliest.
meriva

answer:

x=1/3

x=11/3

STEP 1:

Rearrange this Absolute Value Equation

Absolute value equalitiy entered

-3|x-2|+9 = 4

Another term is moved / added to the right hand side.

To make the absolute value term positive, both sides are multiplied by (-1).

3|x-2| = 5

STEP 2:

Clear the Absolute Value Bars

Clear the absolute-value bars by splitting the equation into its two cases, one for the Positive case and the other for the Negative case.

The Absolute Value term is 3|x-2|

For the Negative case we'll use -3(x-2)

For the Positive case we'll use 3(x-2)

STEP 3:

Solve the Negative Case

-3(x-2) = 5

Multiply

-3x+6 = 5

Rearrange and Add up

-3x = -1

Divide both sides by 3

-x = -(1/3)

Multiply both sides by(-1)

x = (1/3)

Which is the solution for the Negative Case

STEP 4:

Solve the Positive Case

3(x-2) = 5

Multiply

3x-6 = 5

Rearrange and Add up

3x = 11

Divide both sides by 3

x = (11/3)

Which is the solution for the Positive Case

giving us  x=1/3 or x=11/3

allso if u can i need help with a thing so plese help, i would aprestiate it
