She will use 42 purple beads.

Explanation
We will use a proportion to solve this. 

The ratio of blue to purple beads is 4:3, or 4/3.
We know she uses 56 blue beads and an unknown amount, x, of purple beads.  This gives us 56/x.

Together, we have
4/3 = 56/x

Cross multiply:
4*x = 3*56
4x = 168

Divide both sides by 4:
4x/4 = 168/4
x = 42

Answer: 24 beads

Step-by-step explanation:

Jamie is making a beaded necklace having the ratio of blue beads to purple beads as 4:3 and the total beads used by Jamie is 56. This information can be written as:

Ratio of blue heads= 4

Ratio of purple beads= 3

Total ratio of beads= 4+3 = 7

Total beads used = 56 beads

The number of purple beads used will be= 3/7 × 56

= 3 × 8

= 24 beads

The number of purple beads used is 24

A person bought some cosmetics from wholesale market at the rate of Rs 360 per dozen he sells it at Rs 80 a pair find the gain p
bagirrra123 [75]

Given,

CP of cosmetics = Rs 360 per dozen

SP of a pair of cosmetics = Rs 80

To find,

The gain percent

Solution,

1 dozen = 12 items

CP of 1 cosmetic = 360/12 = Rs 30

SP of 1 cosmetic = 80/2 = Rs 40

Profit = SP-CP

= Rs 40 - Rs 30

= Rs 10

Profit percentage is given by :

\%=\dfrac{profit}{CP}\times 100\\\\=\dfrac{10}{30}\times 100\\\\=33.34\%

So, the profit percentage is 33.34%.

Answer:

y=-3/2x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

The form of the equation of a line in slope intercept form is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept. The first step is to find the slope of a line. Since it goes down 3 units for every 2 it moves to the right, it has a slope of -3/2. The y intercept is also obviously at (0,3). Therefore, the equation of this line is y=-3/2x+3.

Hope this helps!

A notary receives $ 3500 for elaborating a title property and $2000 for the constitutive act of an enterprise. In a month did a
Andrew [12]

Answer:

6 titles and 16 acts were elaborated

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of titles be t and the number of acts be a

Since the total is 22 operations:

a + t = 22 •••••••(i)

Total amount from titles = 3500 * t = 3500t

Total amount from acts = 2000 * a = 2000a

2000a + 3500t = 53,000 ••••••(ii)

From i, a = 22-t

Insert this in ii

2000(22-t) + 3500t = 53,000

44,000 - 2000t + 3500t = 53,000

1,500t = 53000-44000

1500t = 9000

t = 9000/1500

t = 6

But a = 22 -

= 22-6 = 16
