Answer:
61.84%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the cost of the box be x. Since the price of the box and the pen is Rs 80, the pen's price can be represented as 80 - x. The box is sold at a ten percent profit, and an added ten percent is equal to 1.1. Therefore, the price the box sells at is 1.1(x). A 20% loss is the same a keeping 80% or multiplying by 0.8. This means the pen sold at 0.8(80 - x). Now, we are given the box went for Rs 28 more than the pen, so we can create an equation:
1.1x = 0.8(80 - x) + 28
We can simplify and solve:
1.1x = 64 - 0.8x + 28
1.9x = 92
x = 92/1.9
x = 920/19
The cost of the box after the increase would be 1.1(920/19) and the pen would be 0.8(80 - 920/19).
The sum of these two can be written as a percent x of 80.
80x = 0.8(80 - 920/19) + 1.1(920/19)
80x = 64 - 0.8(920/19) + 1.1(920/9)
80x = 64 - 0.3(920/19)
80x = 64 - 276/19
80x = 940/19
x = 940/1520
x = 0.6184
This is 61.84%
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
2x - 9y = 23
5x - 3y = -12x - 9y = 23we]periyhw[euiorghweuirtg7wuio[ryg
5x - 3y = -12x - 9y = 23
5x - 3y = -12x - 9y = 23
5x - 3y = -1
Answer:
The two given numbers are 10.5 units apart.
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract the smaller from the larger. The larger number here is 6.2. Then we have
6.2 - (-4.3) = 6.2 + 4.3 = 10.5
The two given numbers are 10.5 units apart.
In the second step you should have subtracted the 2x to move it to the other or side of the equals sign
G. The shape would be similar since dilation at the origin is just a translation and a translation doesn't affect the shape's size or shape.
h. They will still be similar because adding length to each side will just make the shape larger, and if the shape hasn't changed (which it hasn't) it will remain similar.
I. This is simple, just write an equation of the changes you could do the shape and it would be similar. You would have to explain how many you should move and from which sides (should be all sides). It is better for you to do this because there are millions of possible equations, and if you use the same one then it might be striked.
