Let the actual value of the stool be x.
So if the carpenter sells the stool x rupees he neither loses, now wins anything.
67.50 is the value x - 10% of x, that is:
67.50=x-0.1x
67.50=0.9x
x=67.50/0.9=75 (rupees) is the actual value of the stool.
Selling the stool for 82.50 rupees, the carpenter clearly would make a profit, say of y% of that actual value, that is y%*75.
So using the same method:
82.50=75+y%*75
y%*75=82.50-75=7.5
we can make the calculations, but clearly 7.5 is 10% of 75
Answer: 10% gain.

Answer:
A. subtraction
B. division
C. multiplication
D. addition
Step-by-step explanation:
Observe what is done to the variable. Choose the operation that turns the unwanted value into the appropriate identity element.
A. 3.75 is added. To make that value be 0, we subtract 3.75.
B. -3 is multiplied. To make that value be 1, we divide by -3.
C. m is divided by 5. To make that 1/5 multiplier be 1, we multiply by 5.
D. 4 is subtracted. To make that value be zero, we add 4.

<em>Additional comment</em>
Since subtraction is the same as addition of the opposite, and division is the same as multiplication by the reciprocal, the only two properties we really need are the <em>addition property</em> and <em>multiplication property</em>. Your grader may disagree.
Answer: yes
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 50
Step-by-step explanation:
101 + (x + 29) = 180
130 + x = 180
x = 180 - 130
x = 50
Answer:
Never
Step-by-step explanation:
Adding together an obtuse angle (greater than 90°) and acute angle (less than 90°) should result in an obtuse angle every time
