Selling Price is $2,640 and the Loss is $196. Find the Cost Price.

1 answer:

4 0

If I am correct, it should be $2,736.

if this is a re-sell, then you would have to add the loss to the selling price to get the original cost.

loss means how much was lost in profit, so whenever you see that make sure to add it to whatever is applicable, like in this case, $2,640.

Mark bought a notebook for $1.45 and some pencils for $0.42 each. If the total cost was $6.91, how many pencils did he buy?

Lesechka [4]

B - 13

Okay, we know that Mark brought 1 notebook and the totally is 6.91 while one pencil costs $0.42.

x= number of pencils he brought.
we know the price of 1 notebook + the cost of pencils times the numbers of pencils he brought = total cost.

So the equation will be:

1.45 + 0.42x = 6.91 subtract 1.45 on both sides.
0.42x = 5.46 Then we solve for x by dividing both sides by 0.42
x= 13

So the number of pencils he brought is 13.

Identify which of the following is not equivalent to 2 3/4.

mezya [45]

The figure that is not equivalent to 2¾ is 2¼ × 2½. That is option B.

<h3>Simplification of equivalent fractions</h3>

Simplification is a process that is used to make a fraction appear in its simplest forms.

The fraction given is = 2¾

The simplification of the fraction= 2^3/4 = 2

But simplification of 2¼ × 2½ is equal to;

2¼= 0.5

2½= 1

Therefore 2¾ is not equivalent to 2¼ × 2½ when simplified.

A line passes through the points (–3, –4) and (6, 2). What number is the x-intercept?

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$\bold{METHOD\ 1}$

$\text{The formula of a slope:}\\\\m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\\text{x-intercept:}\ (x,\ 0).\\\\\text{Susbtitute the coordinates of the points to the formula of a slope}\\\\(-3,\ -4),\ (6,\ 2),\ (x,\ 0):\\\\m=\dfrac{2-(-4)}{6-(-3)}=\dfrac{2+4}{6+3}=\dfrac{6}{9}=\dfrac{6:3}{9:3}=\dfrac{2}{3}\\\\m=\dfrac{0-2}{x-6}=\dfrac{-2}{x-6}\\\\\text{Therefore we have the equation:}\\\\\dfrac{-2}{x-6}=\dfrac{2}{3}\qquad\text{cross multiply}\\\\2(x-6)=(-2)(3)\\\\2(x-6)=-6\qquad\text{divide both sides by 2}\\\\x-6=-3\qquad\text{add 6 to both sides}\\\\x=3$

$\bold{METHOD\ 2}\\\\\text{Look at the picture.}$

Mark points in the coordinate system.

Lead a line through these points.

Read x-intercept.

Please help! Mathematics

weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Kindly view the attached image to see the rules when looking for the horizontal asymptote.

In this situation we have 2x² / x²

The powers of both are equal to each other therefore the horizontal asymptote will be at the coefficient of the numerator divided by the coefficient of the denominator.

In other words the horizontal asymptote is at y = 2/1 or just 2
