Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

Cost = RM 857143

Loss = RM 107143

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • Selling price SP = RM 750000
  • Loss% = 12.5
  • Cost price CP = x

<u>Cost price is found as:</u>

  • SP = CP - 12.5%
  • 750000 = x - 12.5%
  • 750000= x*(100-12.5)/100
  • 750000= 0.875x
  • x= 750000/0.875
  • x≈ RM 857143

<u>Loss is:</u>

How to factorised quadratics<br>in simple form thank you
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

ax²+ bx + c = 0

Step-by-step explanation

Multiplying (x+4) and (x−1) together (called Expanding) gets x2 + 3x − 4 :


expand vs factor quadratic


So (x+4) and (x−1) are factors of x2 + 3x − 4


Just to be sure, let us check:


(x+4)(x−1)  = x(x−1) + 4(x−1)

 = x2 − x + 4x − 4

 = x2 + 3x − 4 yes

Yes, (x+4) and (x−1) are definitely factors of x2 + 3x − 4

Area of a square:

A= a^2

Given:

A=221 ft^{2}

Solve:

221= a^2

\sqrt{221}=\sqrt{a}^2

a is approx. equal to 14.87 ft.

The value of y varies directly with x, and y = 343 when x = 49. find y when x = 8.
Natasha_Volkova [10]

The value of y is 56 when x = 8.

Given

y = 343 when x = 49

Value of y varies directly with x

Therefore, y ∝ x

We can write the equation with a constant 'k'

y = kx

When y = 343 and x = 49

343 = k × 49

k = 343/49

k = 7

When x = 8,

y = kx

y = 7 × 8

y = 56

The value of y is 56 when x = 8.

Rylan is calculating the standard deviation of a data set that has 9 values. He determines that the sum of the squared deviation
stepladder [879]
The formula for the sum of the squares of the deviations is
SS = s² (N -1)

We are given
SS = 316
N = 9

Substituting
316 = s² (9 - 1)
Solving for s
s = 6.28

The standard deviation is 6.28
