Answer:

Percentage Profit is 63.63%

Step-by-step explanation:

The man buys 440 eggs at 55 pence a score

i.e. he buys 20 eggs for 55 pence

He buys 1 egg for 55/20 = 2.75 pence

Therefore, he buys 440 eggs for = 440 × 2.75 = 1210 pence

10% eggs are unsaleable

thus he sold = 440 - 440 × 10/100 = 440 - 44 = 396 eggs

Eggs sold in dozen = 396/12 = 33

He sold 1 dozen for = 60 pence

Thus, he sold 33 dozen for = 33 × 60 = 1980 pence

Profit = 1980 - 1210 = 770 pence

% Profit = (770/1210) × 100 = 63.63%

(hope this helps can i plz have brainlist :D hehe)

If x=2k + 1, y=k - 1 is a solution of the equation 2x - 3y + 5=0. find the value of k.​
devlian [24]

Answer:

x = 2k + 1 \\ y = k - 1 \\ given

if u substitute the givens in the eqn we will get..

2(2k + 1) - 2(k - 1) + 5 = 0 \\ 4k + 2 - (2k - 2) + 5 = 0 \\ 4k + 2 - 2k + 2 + 5 = 0 \\

then collect like terms

4k - 2k + 2 + 2 + 5 = 0 \\ 2k + 4 + 5 = 0 \\ 2k + 9 = 0

2k =  - 9 \\ k =  \frac{ - 9}{2}

A)  5x⁴-8  <----- the tell-tale guy is the exponent of the variable, is 4, so the                                     degree is 4, 5x then minus then 8, two terms, a BInomial

b) 4a²-2a-16   <---- same tell-tale guy, a² has a higher exponent than say                                            "a", so, the degree is the higher exponent, degree of 2
                           it has 3 terms, thus is a TRInomial
c) 9m³  <---- well, is the only term, variable exponent is 3, so, degree of 3
                   only one term means is a MONOmial.
