A man bought a TV for £300. He had to pay a deposit of 15%. How much did he pay?

1 answer:

5 0

Most of the required information's are already given in the question.
Cost of the Television bought by the man = 300 pounds
Percentage of deposit that was made = 15%
Then
amount of deposit made by the man = (15/100) * 300 pound
= 15 * 3 pounds
= 45 pounds
So the man made a deposit of 45 pounds. I hope the procedure is simple enough for you to understand. You can always use this procedure for doing similar problems in future and you will require no additional help from anybody.

In a recent student body election, Adam received 40 more than 40% of the votes. Brigitte received 40 less

Airida [17]

The total vote cast was 700.

The winner was Adam (received 320 votes)

Why?

To solve the problem, we need to make equations to express the number of votes received for each of the candidates.

Solving we have:

Let be "v" the total vote cast,

For Adam,

$A=40+0.4*v$

For Brigitte,

$B=0.5(40+0.4v)-40$

$B=20+0.2v-40$

$B=0.2v-20$

For Carl,

$C=20+0.5*B$

$C=20+0.5*(0.2v-20)$

$C=10+0.1v$

For Diane,

$D=180votes$

Now, the total vote cast will be:

$v=A+B+C+D\\\\v=(40+0.4v)+(0.2v-20)+(10+0.1v)+180\\\\v=(40-20+10+180)+(0.4v+0.2v+0.1v)$

$v=210+0.7v\\\\v-0.7v=210\\\\v=\frac{210}{0.3}=700$

Now, substituting "v" in each equation to calculate the number of votes for each candidate, we have:

$Adam=40+0.4*700=320votes\\Brigitte=0.2*700-20=120votes\\Carl=10+0.1*700=80votes\\Diane=180votes$

Hence, we have that the total vote cast was 700, and the winner was Adam (received 320 votes)

Have a nice day!

What is the prediction for the outcome when the independent variable is 12?

Orlov [11]

36?
if the independent variable is on the x axis, and based on the given coordinate, the outcome is always triple the amount of the input.
multiply 12 by 3
12x3 is 36.
I THINK that 36 is the correct answer.

masya89 [10]

L.S.A.=1/2pl where p represents the perimeter of the base and l the slant height.
L.S.A. = ½(4*32)(24)
L.S.A. = ½ (128)(24)
L.S.A. =1/2(3072)
L.S.A. = 1536 cm
