50,000 / 2500 = 20....he bought them for 20 bucks a piece. So if he wants to sell them at 15% profit, he would sell them for 20 + 0.15(20) = $ 23 bucks.
A 15% profit of 50,000 dollars is 0.15(50,000) = 7500. Plus the 50 grand spent totals 57500. So they want to make a $ 7500 profit. Selling 2500 lamps at $ 23 per lamp (2500 x 23 = 57500) makes them their profit.
I should just shut up now...answer is $ 23 per lamp
Answer:
x=10, y=25
Step-by-step explanation:
First, in a trapezoid, the two angles on the same leg (the legs are the opposite sides that are not parallel) add up to 180 degrees. Therefore, 4y as well as (2y+3x) are supplementary. We can write this out as
4y + (2y+3x) = 180
6y+3x = 180
Next, the angles of a triangle add up to 180 degrees. Therefore, as the angles 2y, 4y, and (5x-20) make up a triangle, they add up to 180 degrees. We can write this as
4y + 2y + (5x-20) = 180
6y + 5x -20 =180
Our two equations are thus
6y + 5x - 20 = 180
6y + 3x = 180
If we subtract 6y from both sides in each equation, we can say
5x - 20 = 180-6y
3x = 180-6y
Therefore, we can write
5x-20 = 180-5y = 3x
5x-20=3x
subtract 3x from both sides to make all x variables on the same side
2x-20 = 0
add 20 to both sides to isolate the x and its coefficient
2x = 20
divide both sides by 2 to isolate x
x = 10
Therefore,
x = 10
6y + 3x = 180
6y + 30 = 180
subtract 30 from both sides to isolate the y and its coefficient
6y = 150
y = 25
Cuando has simplificado la ecuación lo mas posible y las expresiones de los dos lados quedan iguales, hay soluciones infinitas. Pero, dado que lo has simplificado y son diferentes, no hay solución.
1.) 7x = 12 + 7x - 12
=> 7x = 7x => infinita solución
2.) x - 11 = 11 + x
=> x = 22 + x => no solución
3.) 2(4x - 6) = 8(x + 2)
=> 8x - 12 = 8x + 16 => 8x = 8x + 28 => no solución
4.) 2x - 9 = 2x - 9
=> infinita solución
5.) 8 + 4x = 4x + 10
=> 4x = 4x - 2 => no solución
