Answer:

The average cost of each tie is $56.350

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a men tie buyer plans to promote a $39.99 tie. Consequently, the buyer purchases 450 ties

So, Cost of 450 ties = 450 \times 39.99=17995.5

An order for 100 ties that cost $20.00 each

Cost of 100 ties = 100 \times 20 = 2000

Total cost price = 17995.5+2000 = 19995.5

Let the selling price of 1 tie be x

Total ties = 450+100 = 550

So, SP of 550 ties =550x

Now we are given that markup is 55%

So, Profit % = 55%

So, CP = \frac{SP \times 100}{100+P\%}

Substitute the values

19995.5 = \frac{550x \times 100}{100+55}

19995.5 = \frac{550x \times 100}{155}

19995.5 \times 155 = 55000x

\frac{19995.5 \times 155}{55000}=x

56.350=x

Hence The average cost of each tie is $56.350

What number must you add to complete the square?<br><br> x^2-10x=46
gtnhenbr [62]
X² - 10x = 46
10/2 = 5; 5²+ 25 add 25 to both sides

x² - 10x + 25 = 46 + 25

so the number you have to add to complete the square is 25.

Answer:

1. I don't know how to solve that sorry :(

2. B. It is a diameter

3. 30° = q

4. I don't know sorry :(

Step-by-step explanation:

1. I don't know how to solve that sorry :(

-----------------------------------------------------------

2. B. It is a diameter

------------------------------------

3. All triangles = 180°

180° = 60° + 90° + q

180° = 150° + q

180° - 150° = 150° - 150° + q

30° = q

180° = 60° + 90° + 30°

180° = 150° + 30°

180° = 180°

------------------------------------------

4. I don't know sorry :(

A man gained rs. 3000 by selling a mobile set allowing 15 % discount on the marked price the loss would be rs. 8000. Find the ma
irinina [24]

Answer:

Marked price is Rs. 53333.33 and the cost price is Rs. 42333.33.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Rs. x and Rs. y are the cost price and marked price of the mobile set respectively.

Now, the man has a loss of Rs. 8000 after giving a 15% discount on the marked price.

Therefore, 15% of y is 8000 i.e. 8000 = \frac{y\times 15}{100}

⇒ y = Rs. 53333.33

Now, the man gained Rs. 3000 by selling the mobile set allowing 15% discount on the marked price.

Therefore, the mobile set has the cost price = x = Rs. [(53333.33 - 8000) - 3000] = Rs. 42333.33 (Answer)
