Answer:

33.33%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that CP for 20dozen = 20×90

= 1800

SP = 20×120

= 2400

Gain % = (Gain / CP) ×100

Gain = SP-CP

So is the selling price

Cp is the cost price

Hence Gain = 2400-1800

Gain = 600

Gain% = 600/1800 ×100/1

= 0.333×100/1

= 33.33%

Hence his percentage gain will be 33.33%

Since the question stated that percentage gain is to be calculated, I believe the sell price should be higher than the cost price. Hence 1.20 Cedis would not work so I used 120 Cedis instead. Thanks

If we are given the value of α. How can we find the value of β?

Cloud [144]

Answer:

β = 140 - α

we know that the "missing" angle is 40° since 40 + 140 = 180

we also know that the total sum of angles in a triangle is 180

so β = 180 - 40 - α

or β = 140 - α

Caleb has an assignment to draw a contour map. What type of landform is he most likely drawing?

marysya [2.9K]

The type of land form that Caleb most likely draws is a hill. The answer is option C- a hill.

Step-by-step explanation:

Contour lines are drawn to represent the changes in the elevation which helps to know the slope of the figure drawn.
If the contour lines are drawn close, then steeper the figure is. And more distant the lines are drawn, then less steep the figure is.
Here, the lines seem to be likely circle in shape. The distance of the outermost contour line is 20 ft. The next inner lines will have reduced values of 20 ft.
Therefore, the elevation gets reduced from higher to lower points which provides a diagram of a hill. Since there is no continuous high and low elevations, this cannot be a valley (a range of mountains).
Furthermore, The contour diagram for option A and D such as creek(water stream) or shoreline will have different and mixed values of elevations that seems to be a messy structure of contour lines.
