Step-by-step explanation and answers:
300 articles at a total cost of $1500:
$1500 / 300 = $5 / article
Sells 260 articles at a price 20% above this ^ price:
20% of $5 is $1, so $5 + $1 = $6
Then he sells 260 articles at the price of ^ $6
260 * $6 = $1560
Each of the remaining articles is sold at a price that's 50% of the 260 he sold.
He sold those for $6, so he would now sell the last 40 for $3
From the remaining 40 articles, he makes 40 * $3, or $120
The shopkeeper made $1560 + $120 = $1680, which is $180 more than he bought them for ($1500)
Therefore, he made a profit percentage of $180 / $1500, (the amount of profit over the amount spent).
He made a profit percentage, compared to the cost price, of 12%.
Count how many squares are shaded in and choose the corresponding fraction i guess?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Pay attention to the procedure:
(5(10)^2)^3/(10(5))^4. What we need is plug in the corresponding x and y values Then you have to do x squared before you multiply it by 5 like this: (5(100))^3/(10(5))^4 Now solve for what is in the top parenthesis. (500)^3/(10(5))^4 500^3=125000000 Now work on the denominator. Do what is inside the parenthesis first 10*5=50 Now (50)^4=6250000 Now divide the numerator and the denominator. 125000000/6250000 Which equals 20, Please check if I'm wrong but I think this is what you need
4x-35=9x
-4x
-35=5x
divide by 5
x= -7
