The number of books sold is 473.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
- The original cost of each book = $0.64
- The selling price of each book = $0.75
The difference between the original price and selling price of the book gives the profit per book.
The profit of one book = Selling price - Original price
Let,
- The total number of books be 'x'.
- The number of books sold be 'y'.
- The unsold books is 100.
- The total profit is -12 because it was gone to a loss of $12.
Therefore, the equation is formed as
total Profit = 0.75y - 0.64x
⇒ 0.75y - 0.64x = -12 --------(1)
Total books = sold books + unsold books
x = y + 100
⇒ x-y = 100 -------(2)
Substitute x= 100+y in the eq(1),
0.75y - 0.64(100+y) = -12
0.75y - 64 -0.64y = -12
0.11y = -12 +64
y = 52 / 0.11
y = 472.7
y ≅ 473
The number of book sold is 473 books.
The total number of books is (100+473) = 573 books.
Answer: 3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Point B has coordinates (4,1).
The x-coordinate of point A is -4.
The distance between point A and point B is 10 units.
To find:
The possible coordinates of point A.
Solution:
Let the y-coordinate of point A be y. Then the two points are A(-4,y) and B(4,1).
Distance formula:

The distance between point A and point B is 10 units.

Taking square on both sides, we get



Taking square root on both sides, we get



and 
and 
Therefore, the possible coordinates of point A are either (-4,-5) or (-4,7).
Answer:
a
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's compare the cost of both the centers.
<u>Cost of Center A:</u>
One time charge of $495 in one year.
<u>Cost of Center B:</u>
- Flat $25 dollar sign up fee
- $15 per month, so
dollars a year - $5 per aerobic class, so
dollars a year (given that Billy goes to class once a week) (<em>Note: There are 52 weeks in a year</em>)
Total cost =
dollars
Hence, Center B would cost
dollars cheaper.
ANSWER: Least expensive club for Billy to use for a year is Center B
