Answer:
C. Slope and
Step-by-step explanation:
We're missing the graph itself, but I can make an educated guess:
- Assuming x = volume and y = mass:
density = mass/volume
x = volume = run
y = mass = rise
mass/volume = rise/run = slope
The slope of the line (assuming the graph is purely linear) represents mass/volume, which is the formula for density.
I had to Google the density of silver itself. Do the math from the graph for a more appropriate answer, as the graph may be less scientifically precise.
Answer:
C. 1000 loss.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent purchase price of each car.
We have been given that a used-car dealer sold one car at a profit of 25 percent of the dealer's purchase price for that car and sold another car at a loss of 20 percent of the dealer's purchase price for that car.
We can represent the car that dealer sold with 25% profit to find purchase price as:
Therefore, the purchase price of 1st car was $16,000.
We can represent the car that dealer sold with 20% loss to find purchase price as:
Therefore, the purchase price of 2nd car was $25,000.
The total purchase price of both cars would be
The total sale price of both cars .
We can see that the sale price of both car is less than purchase price by $1000, so the dealer got a loss of $1000.
Therefore, the dealer's total loss, in dollars, for the two transactions combined was 1000 and option C is the correct choice.
