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

Graph the function.<br> y=-x-6 ifx&lt;-6<br> y = 2x + 12 if x&gt;-6
Naddik [55]

Answer:

  see attached

Step-by-step explanation:

For x < -6, the function has a slope of -1 and an x-intercept of -6.

For x > -6, the function has a slope of 2 and an x-intercept of -6.

The function given here is not defined at x=6, so there is a hole at (-6, 0).

Chester Boles reviewed his credit card's monthly statement. It shows a $2,376.10 previous balance and this month's new purchases
ss7ja [257]

Initial balance, I = $2376.10 .

Total amount of purchase made, A = $( 875.22+65.75+45.22+21.23 ) = $1007.42 .

Total amount credit, c = $875.22 .

Fine, f = $45.30 .

Another purchase, a=\dfrac{2376.10\times 2.5}{100}=\$ 59.4025 .

So, balance left is :

B = I - A - f - a + c

B = 2376.10 - 1007.42 - 45.30 - 59.4025 + 875.22

B = $2139.1975

Hence, this is the required solution.
