House sold for $132000. Seller made 10% over original purchase price. What is the original purchase price of house

1 answer:

6 0

V (sale value) = $ 132000
P (profit) = 10% on the sale, ie 10/100 * 132000 = 1320000/100 = $ 13200
C (cost) = ?

As:

V = C + P
132000 = C + 13200
C = 132000-13200
C = 118800

Answer:

Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

48.49 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagrammatic sketch of the information provided in the question was attached in the image below.

From the image below, the distance between the two kites is denoted by (c) and can be determined by using the cosine angle rule which is expressed as:

$c^2 = a^2 + b^2 -2ab cos \ C$

where;

a = 110

b = 104

Cos C = 26°

Then;

$c^2 = 110^2 + 104^2 -2(110)(104) cos \ 26 \\ \\ c^2 = 12100 + 10816- 22880 ( 0.8988) \\ \\ c^2 = 22916- 20564.544 \\ \\ c^2 = 2351.456 \\ \\ c= \sqrt{2351.456} \\ \\ \mathbf{ c = 48.49 \ feet}$
