Yes

How many times you do it it would still be 75%
Answer:
2% gain
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume the shopkeeper bought the appliances at the indicated prices, and that gain is computed on the basis of that cost price.
Since the base cost is the same for each appliance, the percentages can be added directly to find the percentage gain on 8000. However, the shopkeeper's total outlay was 16000, not 8000, so the final gain percentage is half of that total.
gain percent = (-4% + 8%)/2 = 2%
_____
If you want to see the actual numbers:
Loss on VCR = 4% × 8000 = 320.
Gain on TV = 8% × 8000 = 640.
Total gain on 16000 is -320 +640 = 320. As a percentage, that is ...
320/16000 × 100% = 2%
Answer:
49 - x^2
Step-by-step explanation:
(7+x)(7-x)
We know this is the difference of squares
(a-b) (a+b) = a^2 - b^2
7^2 - x^2 = 49-x^2
We can also FOIL
first = 7*7 = 49
Outer: = 7x
Inner: = -7x
Last : -x*x = -x^2
Add them together
49 +7x-7x - x^2
Combine like terms
49-x^2
Convention in algebra is that we use letters such as a, b, c, etc., for parameters and letters such as x, y z, and so on, for variables.
Thus the parameters here are a, b and k. k is the constant of proportionality.
