Answer:

11.11%

Step-by-step explanation:

The selling price is 250

The cost price is 250-25

= 225

Therefore the gain can be calculated as follows

=250-225x/225x×100

1/9 ×100

= 0.1111×100

= 11.11%

Hence the gain is 11.11%

The sum of two numbers is 9 . one number is nine less than twice the other. find the two numbers.
dimulka [17.4K]
Hello!

To solve this problem, we will use a system of equations. We will have one number be x and the other y. We will use substitutions to solve for each variable.

x+y=9
x=2y-9

To solve for the two numbers, we need to solve the top equation. The second equation shows that x=2y-9. In the first equation, we can replace 2y-9 for x and solve.

2y-9+y=9
3y-9=9
3y=18
y=6

We now know the value of y. Now we need to find x. We can plug in 6 for y in the second equation to find x.

x=2·6-9
x=12-9
x=3

Just to check, we will plug these two numbers into the first equation.


3+6=9
9=9

Our two numbers are three and six.

I hope this helps!

The population of a city increase exponentially at a rate of x% every 5 years
Lerok [7]

Answer:

1.1460277. Put in your decimal place given to you.

This is the percentage rate.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=0=60100

55=120150

60100=a*b^0

120150/60100=60100/60100*b^5

b^5^(1/5)=5square root(120150/60100)=1.14860277

Our of the four runners: Alex, Ben, Curtis, and Dan, the oldest came in second place. Alex ran the distance faster than Curtis,
Alexus [3.1K]

Considering the situation described, the classification of the runners is given as follows:

Dan - Ben - Alex - Curtis.

<h3>What is the classification of the runners?</h3>

The oldest came in second place. Ben is older than Alex, and Curtis is older than Dan, hence either Ben or Curtis finished second.

Alex ran the distance faster than Curtis, and Dan ran faster than Ben and Curtis, hence considering the above observation Ben finished second and the classification is:

Dan - Ben - Alex - Curtis.
