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:
Step-by-step explanation:
1/8 = 1/9 + x ...multiply by LCD of 72
9 = 8 + 72x
9 - 8 = 72x
1 = 72x
1/72 = x
1/8 = 1/10 + x....multiply by 40
5 = 4 + 40x
5 - 4 = 40x
1 = 40x
1/40 = x
1/8 = 1/11 + x....multiply by 88
11 = 8 + 88x
11 - 8 = 88x
3 = 88x
3/88 = x
can all unit fractions be made in more then 1 way like this ?
not to sure because that last one....because it has been that a unit fraction is the outcome of adding together 2 unit fractions...but that last one...3/88 is not a unit fraction
I believe the answer is C
Answer:
(2,16)
Step-by-step explanation:
y=8x-----------(i)
y= 10x-4---------(ii)
Substituting the value of y=8x in equation (ii)
8x=10x-4
8x-10x=-4
-2x= -4
x=2
Now, substituting the value of x= 2 in equation (i)
y=8x=8(2)=16
Solution of the system is (2,16)
