Answer:
i)
0.79m
ii)
1.21m
iii)
7/5m
iv)
3/5m
Step-by-step explanation:
i)
The price of a USB memory stick selling at a 21% discount off its marked price (m)
The marked price m represents 100% of the value of the USB memory stick. Offering a 21% discount off the marked price will mean that the USB will be selling at;
(100 - 21)% of the marked price m
=79% of m
= (79/100)*m
= 0.79m
ii)
The price of a CD that sells for 21% more than the amount (m) needed to manufacture the CD.
The amount (m) needed to manufacture the CD would represent 100% of the value of the CD. Selling the CD for 21% more than the amount (m) needed to manufacture the CD will imply that the selling price is;
(100+21)% of m
= 121% of m
= (121/100)*m
= 1.21m
iii)
The final value of a painting after its initial value, m, increases by 2/5.
The initial value of the painting is given as m. The value of the painting is said to increase by 2/5 which means that the increase in its value would be;
2/5 of m
=2/5 * m
=2/5m
The final value of the painting will thus be;
initial value + increase in value
=m + 2/5m
= m(1+2/5)
=7/5m
iv)
The total number of markers that Nancy has if she gives away 2/5 of her m markers to Amy.
Initially, Nancy had a total of m markers. By giving away 2/5 of her markers to Amy, her markers reduced by;
2/5 of m
=2/5*m
=2/5m
The new number of her markers will be given by;
initial numbers - total given to Amy
= m - (2/5m)
= m(1 - 2/5)
=m(3/5)
=3/5m
Area=1/2 times base times height
base=4
height=3
area=1/2 times 4 times 3
area=2 times 3
area=6 square units
Answer:
1. 47 correct, 0 wrong and 3 unanswered
2. 48 correct, 1 wrong and 1 unanswered
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
Total number of questions = 50
For correct answers = 2
For wrong answers = -2
Unanswered questions = 0
Yash scored 94 marks
Let c, w and u represent the number of correct, wrong and unanswered questions
2×c - 2 × w + 0×u = 94
2c -2w = 94 .....1
And;
c + w + u = 50 .....2
We have 2 equations and 3 unknowns
By observing the problem, we can see two possible solutions;
Case 1: Assuming he did not miss (get wrong) any answer;
He needs to score 47 answers right;
47 × 2 = 94
Then;
c = 47 w = 0 and u = 50 - (47+0) = 3
47 correct, 0 wrong and 3 unanswered
Case 2: Assuming he got one answer wrong;
He would need to score one more answer right compared to the first case;
(47+1) × 2 - 1 × 2 = 96 - 2 = 94
c = 47+1 = 48
w = 1
u = 50 - (48+1) = 1
So he need to score 48 correct answers, 1 wrong answer and 1 unanswered.
(2,6) it’s where they cross. If there isn’t a graph make the two equations equal to each other to find x then plug in x to either equation to find y
