Answer:

Mary, by 3 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

5 feet = 60 inches

1.6 meters = 63 inches

63 - 60 = 3

Mary is taller than Alice by 3 inches.

Find the value of x such that 365 based seven + 43 based x = 217 based 10.
Pepsi [2]

We need to find the base x in the following equation:

365_7+43_x=217_{10}

First, lets convert 365 from base 7 to base 10. This is given by

365_7=3\times7^2+6\times7^1+5\times7^0

where the upperindex denotes the position of eah number. This gives

\begin{gathered} 365_7=3\times49+6\times7+5\times1 \\ 365_7=147+42+5 \\ 365_7=194_{10} \end{gathered}

that is, 365 based 7 is equal to 194 bases 10.

Now, lets do the same for 43 based x. Lets convert 43 based x to base 10:

43_x=4\times x^1+3\times x^0

where again, the superindex 0 and 1 denote the position 0 and 1 in the number 43. This gives

43_x=(4x+3)_{10}

Now, we have all number in base 10. Then, our first equation can be written in base 10 as

194_{10}+(4x+3)_{10}=217_{10}

For simplicity, we can omit the 10 and get

194+4x+3=217

so, we can solve this equation for x. By combining similar terms. we have

197+4x=217

and by moving 197 to the right hand side, we obtain

\begin{gathered} 4x=217-197 \\ 4x=20 \end{gathered}

Finally, we get

\begin{gathered} x=\frac{20}{4} \\ x=5 \end{gathered}

Therefore, the solution is x=5

Sonbull [250]

Answer:

answer below :) hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount invested in Civil investment fund= 10% of 96000 = \frac{10}{100} x 96000 = 10 x 960= 9600

remaing taxable amount = =96000 -(75000+9600)

                             = 96000 - 84600

                             = Rs. 11400

Tax = 15% of 11400

= \frac{15}{100} x 11400 = 15 x 114 = 1710

again, i hope this helps :)
