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%

A square piece of plastic has a perimeter of 8 cm. how long is each side of the piece of plastic?

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it is a square, all four sides are equal and its perimeter is just

P=4s, so if P=8 then

4s=8, dividing each side by 4 we get

s=2

So each side of the plastic square is 2 centimeters.

Re-write the equation without the h component.

levacccp [35]

Answer:

$f(x) = 2[\frac{3^x}{9}] + 2$

$f(x) = 8(4)^x$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$f(x) = 2(3)^{x-2} + 2$

$f(x) = \frac{1}{2}(4)^{x+2}$

Required

Remove the h component

In a function, the h component is highlighted as:

$f(x) = a^{x+h}$

So, we have:

$f(x) = 2(3)^{x-2} + 2$

Split the exponents using the following law of indices:

$a^m/a^n = a^{m-n}$

$f(x) = 2*\frac{3^x}{3^2} + 2$

$f(x) = 2*\frac{3^x}{9} + 2$

$f(x) = 2[\frac{3^x}{9}] + 2$

<em>The h component has been removed</em>

$f(x) = \frac{1}{2}(4)^{x+2}$

Split the exponent using the following law of indices

$a^{m+n} =a^m * a^n$

So, we have:

$f(x) = \frac{1}{2}(4)^x * 4^2$

Express 4^2 as 16

$f(x) = \frac{1}{2}(4)^x * 16$

Divide 16 by 2

$f(x) = 8(4)^x$

A rectangular park of length 60 m breadth 50 m encloses w volleyball court of length 18 m and breadth 10 m. Find the area of the

Zanzabum

Given

A rectangular park of length 60 m breadth 50 m encloses with volleyball court of length 18 m and breadth 10 m.

To find:

The area of the park excluding the court at the rate of Rs 110 per square meter.

Solution:

Area of a rectangle is:

$Area=length \times breadth$

Area of whole park is:

$A_1=60 \times 50$

$A_1=3000$

Area of volleyball court is:

$A_2=18 \times 10$

$A_2=180$

Now, the area of the park excluding the court is:

$A=A_1-A_2$

$A=3000-180$

$A=2820$

Therefore, the area of the park excluding the court is 2820 square meter.
