Answer:
Carl has 35 dimes and 90 quarters
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of quarters be q and the number of dimes be d
Total number of coins is 125;
Hence;
q + d = 125 •••••••••(i)
The total value of quarters present = q * 0.25 = 0.25q
The total value of dimes present = d * 0.1 = 0.1d
Adding both gives the total
0.25q + 0.1d =26 ••••••••(ii)
So we need to solve both equations simultaneously;
From i,
q = 125 - d
Substitute this into ii
0.25(125-d) + 0.1d = 26
31.25 -0.25d + 0.1d = 26
31.25 -26 = 0.25d -0.1d
5.25 = 0.15d
d = 5.25/0.15
d = 35
Recall; q = 125 - d = 125 -35 = 90
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
q = + s ( subtract s from both sides )
q - s =
Multiply both sides by r
r(q - s) = p
Answer:
5%
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>price after discount :</u>
9 600 - 9 600×40%
= 5760
<u>Original price (price without profit) :</u>
let x be the original price of the device.
x + x × 20% = 5760
Then
x = (5 760×100)÷120
= 4 800
<u>Original price increased by 30% :</u>
4 800 + 4 800×30%
= 6 240
<u>the discount needed to increase the profit by 10% :</u>
[(9 600-6 240)÷9 600]×100
= 35%
Then
to increase the profit by 10% ,we have to reduce
the percent of discount to :
40% - 35%
= 5%
