Answer:

  2% gain

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume the shopkeeper bought the appliances at the indicated prices, and that gain is computed on the basis of that cost price.

Since the base cost is the same for each appliance, the percentages can be added directly to find the percentage gain on 8000. However, the shopkeeper's total outlay was 16000, not 8000, so the final gain percentage is half of that total.

  gain percent = (-4% + 8%)/2 = 2%

_____

If you want to see the actual numbers:

  Loss on VCR = 4% × 8000 = 320.

  Gain on TV = 8% × 8000 = 640.

Total gain on 16000 is -320 +640 = 320. As a percentage, that is ...

  320/16000 × 100% = 2%

1)

here, we do the left-hand-side

\bf [sin(x)+cos(x)]^2+[sin(x)-cos(x)]^2=2
\\\\\\\
[sin^2(x)+2sin(x)cos(x)+cos^2(x)]\\\\+~ [sin^2(x)-2sin(x)cos(x)+cos^2(x)]
\\\\\\
2sin^2(x)+2cos^2(x)\implies 2[sin^2(x)+cos^2(x)]\implies 2[1]\implies 2

2)

here we also do the left-hand-side

\bf \cfrac{2-cos^2(x)}{sin(x)}=csc(x)+sin(x)
\\\\\\
\cfrac{2-[1-sin^2(x)]}{sin(x)}\implies \cfrac{2-1+sin^2(x)}{sin(x)}\implies \cfrac{1+sin^2(x)}{sin(x)}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{1}{sin(x)}+\cfrac{sin^2(x)}{sin(x)}\implies csc(x)+sin(x)

3)

here, we do the right-hand-side

\bf \cfrac{cos(x)-sin^2(x)}{sin(x)+cos^2(x)}=\cfrac{csc(x)-tan(x)}{sec(x)+cot(x)}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{csc(x)-tan(x)}{sec(x)+cot(x)}\implies \cfrac{\frac{1}{sin(x)}-\frac{sin(x)}{cos(x)}}{\frac{1}{cos(x)}-\frac{cos(x)}{sin(x)}}\implies \cfrac{\frac{cos(x)-sin^2(x)}{sin(x)cos(x)}}{\frac{sin(x)+cos^2(x)}{sin(x)cos(x)}}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{cos(x)-sin^2(x)}{\underline{sin(x)cos(x)}}\cdot \cfrac{\underline{sin(x)cos(x)}}{sin(x)+cos^2(x)}\implies \cfrac{cos(x)-sin^2(x)}{sin(x)+cos^2(x)}

Answer quickly, please. I need this. I will give brainliest to whoever answers first. You also get 25 points for this
sukhopar [10]
** DISCLAMIER** am not completely sure. Please do not use my answer unless you are very desperate.

since O,R correspond with A,N I think you half F on each side and add it to 11.2 so
10 divided by 2 = 5
7 is already half.
5 + 7 is 12
12 + 11.2 = 23.2

IF THIS IS WRONG TRY 17
reason for 17:
10 + 7 = 17
If you look at both lines they look the same length as A, N.

39 is what percent of 96
ra1l [238]

Answer:

40.625%

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a very simple question.

We have to understand converting word equations to algebraic ones.

"is" means "="

"of" means "*"

So, we can write:

39 = what percent * 96

Now, we let "what percent" be "p" and solve the equation for p:

39 = P * 96

So,

39 = P * 96\\39=96P\\P=\frac{39}{96}\\P=0.40625

Converting this decimal to percentage means multiplying by 100, so we have:

0.40625 * 100

= 40.625%

The life expectancy of a circulating coin is 30 years. The life expectancy of a circulating dollar bill is only
Afina-wow [57]
Life expectancy of dollar bill = d
life expectancy of coin = c

d = 1/20 c

substitute value in for c (30)

d = 1/20 * 30
d = 30/20
d = 1.5

life expectancy of a dollar bill = 1.5 years
