<h2><u>Question</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h2>

A fruitseller bought 50kg of the fruits. He sold 30kg of fruits for the cost price of 35kg of fruits and he sold the remaining quantity for the cost Price of 18kg of fruits. calculate his profit or loss percent in the total transaction.

<h2><u>Answer</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h2>

let the cost price be 50x

→he sells 30kg of fruits on it's CP of 35 kg

→CP of 30kg fruits = 30x

→SP of 35kg fruits = 35x

→remaing fruits are 20kg

→he sells 20kg of fruits on CP of 16kg

→CP of 20kg fruits = 20x

→SP of 20kg fruits = 16x

→total CP is = 50x

→total SP is = (35 + 16) = 51x

→SP > CP (it means profit)

→profit = SP-CP

→ 51-50

→ 1

<h2 /><h2><u>Now,</u></h2>

→ Profit% = gain/CP × 100

→ Profit% = 1/50 × 100

→ 2%

Hence the fruit seller had a profit% of 2%.

The Patronete Winery's tastiest wine must have a 12% alcohol content. How many gallons of wine with a 9% alcohol content must be
erik [133]

Answer: 3000 gallon

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, The total quantity of 15% alcohol content = 3000 gallon

And, in which quantity of alcohol = 15% of 3000 gallon = 450 gallon.

Let the total quantity of 9% alcohol content  = x

In which quantity of alcohol = 9% of x gallon= 9x/100 gallon

Now, according to the question,  The wine with a 9% alcohol content will be mixed with 3,000 gallons of wine with a 15% alcohol content in order to achieve the desired 12% alcohol content.

Thus, the total quantity of mixture of 12% alcohol content = The total quantity of 15% alcohol content + total quantity of 9% alcohol content

= 3000 + x

In which quantity of alcohol = 12 % of ( 3000+x) = (360 + 12x/100) gallon ---(1)

But, the quantity of alcohol in 12 % of alcohol content = quantity of alcohol in 15% of alcohol content +  quantity of alcohol in 9% of alcohol content

The quantity of alcohol in 12 % of alcohol content = (450 + 9x/100) gallon ---(2)

On equating equation (1) and (2)

We get, 360 + 12x/100 = 450 + 9x/100

⇒ 3x/100 = 90

⇒ x = 3000

Therefore, The total quantity of the mixture of 9% alcohol content = 3000

3 1/2 - 1 1/3 x x= 1
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

The value of x for the given expression is \frac{15}{8}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

<u>The expression is written </u>

3\dfrac{1}{2} - 1\dfrac{1}{3} × x = 1

Or, 1\dfrac{1}{3} × x = 3\dfrac{1}{2} - 1

Or, \frac{(1\times 3) + 1}{3} × x = \frac{(3\times 2) + 1}{2} - 1

Or, \dfrac{4}{3} × x = \dfrac{7}{2} - 1

Or,  \dfrac{4}{3} × x = \dfrac{7-2}{2}

Or, \dfrac{4}{3} × x = \dfrac{5}{2}

∴ x = \frac{\frac{5}{2}}{\frac{4}{3}}

Or, x = \frac{5\times 3}{2\times 4}

I.e x = \frac{15}{8}

So, The value of x = \frac{15}{8}

Hence The value of x for the given expression is \frac{15}{8} Answer

Pam ordered a circular hot tub cover with a diameter of 80 inches. Find the area of the hot tub cover.​
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

5026.55in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = πr^2

radius (r) is half of the diameter, hence the radius is 40 inches

So after plugging that in, the equation should look like

Area = π(40)^2

A = 1600π ≈ 5026.55

The units for this is in² so just add that in the end
