Answer:

Rs. 42000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that Mr. Ahmed bought the bicycle for Rs. x, and sold it for Rs. y to Mr. Saad. Since he made a loss of 28%, hence:

y = x - 0.28x = 0.72x

Mr. Saad spent Rs.1680 on its repairs, therefore the total cost price of the motorcycle = 0.72x + 1680

He then sold it for Rs.35910 making a profit of 12.5%. Therefore:

0.72x + 1680 + [0.125(0.72x + 1680)] = 35910

0.81x + 1890 = 35910

0.81x = 34020

x = Rs. 42000

Therefore the cost price of the motorcycle for Mr. Ahmed is Rs. 42000

Consider the geometric sequence below.
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

f(1) = 8

Common ratio: 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

f(1) means the firs term in a sequence.

In the function f(n), represented by 8, 4, 2, 1, .., the first term is 8.

f(1) = 8

To find the common ratio, divide any term by the term before it.

We can use any two of the given terms in the sequence EXCEPT for 8 because it is the first term and does not have a term before it.

I choose to divide the second term by the first term:

4/8 = 1/2 = 0.5
