The number of books sold is 473.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
- The original cost of each book = $0.64
- The selling price of each book = $0.75
The difference between the original price and selling price of the book gives the profit per book.
The profit of one book = Selling price - Original price
Let,
- The total number of books be 'x'.
- The number of books sold be 'y'.
- The unsold books is 100.
- The total profit is -12 because it was gone to a loss of $12.
Therefore, the equation is formed as
total Profit = 0.75y - 0.64x
⇒ 0.75y - 0.64x = -12 --------(1)
Total books = sold books + unsold books
x = y + 100
⇒ x-y = 100 -------(2)
Substitute x= 100+y in the eq(1),
0.75y - 0.64(100+y) = -12
0.75y - 64 -0.64y = -12
0.11y = -12 +64
y = 52 / 0.11
y = 472.7
y ≅ 473
The number of book sold is 473 books.
The total number of books is (100+473) = 573 books.
Answer:
h=6y/q∧3
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The value of x for equation is 3.4
The value of y for equation is 5.2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given as :
The two linear equation are
2 x + y = 12 ........A
4 x - 3 y = 2 .........B
Now, Solving both equations , we get
3 × ( 2 x + y ) + (4 x - 3 y) = 3 × 12 - 2
Or, 6 x + 3 y + 4 x - 3 y = 36 - 2
Or, (6 x + 4 x) + (3 y - 3 y) = 34
Or, 10 x + 0 = 34
∴ x = 
i.e x = 3.4
So, The value of x for equation , x = 3.4
Put the value of x into eq A
∵ 2 x + y = 12
Or, y = 12 - 2 x
Or, y = 12 - 2 × 3.4
Or, y = 12 - 6.8
∴ y = 5.2
So, The value of y for equation , y = 5.2
Hence, The value of x for equation is 3.4 and The value of y for equation is 5.2 Answer
5% of 1000 is 5 * 1000 / 100 = 5000 / 100 = 50.
