Answer:

Rs 500

Step-by-step explanation:

Profit = 5%

Loss = 5%

<u><em>For CP</em></u>

Profit = 1.05x

Loss = 0.95x

<u><em>Given Condition:</em></u>

Let CP be x

1.05 x = 50 + 0.95x

=> 1.05x-0.95x = 50

=> 0.1 x = 50

<u><em>Dividing both sides by 0.1</em></u>

=> x = Rs 500

Answer:

Rs. 500

Step-by-step explanation:

CP= x

SP at 5% profit= 1.05x

SP at 5% loss= 0.95x

The difference= Rs. 50

  • 1.05x- 0.95x= 50
  • 0.1x= 50
  • x= 50/0.1
  • x= 500

CP is Rs. 500

<h3><em>Total </em><em>surface </em><em>area </em><em>of </em><em>3</em><em> </em><em>tanks=</em><em>3</em><em>4</em><em>.</em><em>3</em><em> </em><em>m^</em><em>2</em></h3><h3><em>7</em><em> </em><em>tins </em><em>of </em><em>paint </em><em>are </em><em>required</em><em>.</em></h3>

<em>Solution</em><em>,</em>

<em>diameter </em><em>of </em><em>tank=</em><em>1</em><em>.</em><em>4</em><em> </em><em>m</em>

<em>Height </em><em>of </em><em>tank=</em><em>1</em><em>.</em><em>9</em><em> </em><em>m</em>

<em>Given </em><em>tank </em><em>has </em><em>top </em><em>and </em><em>bottom </em>

<em>Now,</em><em> </em><em>The </em><em>total </em><em>surface </em><em>area </em><em>of </em><em>cylinder </em><em>tank </em><em>is </em><em>given </em><em>by:</em>

<em>tsa = 2\pi \:  {r}^{2}  + (2\pi \: r \: ) \times h</em>

<em>r(</em><em> </em><em>radius </em><em>of </em><em>tank)</em><em>=</em>

<em>\frac{diameter}{2}  =  \frac{1.4}{2}  = 0.7 \: m</em>

<em>h(</em><em>height </em><em>of </em><em>tank)</em><em>=</em><em>1</em><em>.</em><em>9</em><em> </em><em>m</em>

<em>TSA </em><em>of </em><em>1</em><em> </em><em>tank</em>

<em>=</em>

<em>2 \times 3.14 \times  {(0.7)}^{2}  + 2 \times 3.14 \times 0.7 \times 1.9 \\  = 11.435 \:  {m}^{2}</em>

<em>TSA </em><em>Of </em><em>3</em><em> </em><em>tanks</em>

Please help! 15 points to whoever graphs and solves it!
monitta

First you have to get the equation into slope/intercept format: y = mx + b

3y > -3+6x\\\\\frac{3y}{3} >\frac{-3+6x}{3} \\y >\frac{3(-1+2x)}{3} \\y > -1+2x\\\\y>2x-1

So the slope m = 2, and the y-intercept b = -1.

b tells you where the line intersects the y axis. The slope is rise (vertical distance) over run (horizontal distance). I have attached my best attempt at drawing this without graph paper.  The dotted line represents the inequality, and the solution set includes the values above the line which is why it is shaded. Hope this helps!
