A merchant bought 1000 electric bulbs at the rate of Rs.150 each. 50 of them were broken on the way and the remaining he sold at
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

₹165.79

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:-

No. of electric bulbs = 1000

cost of each electric bulb = ₹ 150

No. of bulbs broken = 50

Selling price of each bulb = x

Profit percentage = 5%

To Find:-

The selling price of each bulb.

Solution:-

Cost price of 1000 electric bulbs,

= 1000 × ₹150

= ₹1,50,000

5% profit on the total cost price,

= {5}/{100}× ₹150000

= ₹7500

Total selling price = ₹157500

No. of bulbs remaining = 950

Therefore, selling price of each bulb,

= {₹157500}/{950}

= ₹165.79

Therefore,

Selling price of each bulb = ₹165.79

Find the value of x cubed minus 2x squared minus 7x + 5 of x=1/2-√3 ​
Svetach [21]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  3

Step-by-step explanation:

For f(x) = x^3 -2x^2 -7x +5 and x=1/(2-√3), we have ...

  f(x) = ((x -2)x -7)x +5

and ...

  x = 1/(2-√3) = (2+√3)/(2^2 -3) = 2+√3

Then ...

  f(2+√3) = ((2 +√3 -2)(2 +√3) -7)(2 +√3) +5

  = (3+2√3 -7)(2+√3) +5

  = 2(√3 -2)(√3 +2) +5 = 2(3 -4) +5 = -2 +5

  f(1/(2 -√3)) = 3

_____

If you really mean x = (1/2) -√3, then f(x) = (42√3 -3)/8.
