Answer:
Total length of the first swing=64 m
Step-by-step explanation:
The total length of all four swings can be expressed as;
Total length of all 4 swings=Length of first swing+length of second swing+length of third swing+length of fourth swing
where;
Total length of all 4 swings=175 m
Length of first swing=x
Length of second swing=75% of length of first swing=(75/100)×x=0.75 x
Length of third swing=75% of length of second swing
Length of third swing=(75/100)×0.75 x=0.5625 x
Length of fourth swing=75% of length of third swing
Length of fourth swing=(75/100)×0.5625 x=0.421875 x
replacing;
Total length of all 4 swings
175=x+0.75 x+0.5625 x+0.421875 x
2.734375 x=175
x=175/2.734375
x=64
Total length of the first swing=x=64 m
In the given problem it is already stated that the cost of each eggs is 15 cent. Out the total eggs bought 6 were broken. The rest of the eggs were sold for 20 cents each and the profit made was $4.80.
Cost of the 6 broken eggs = (6 * 0.15)
= 0.9 cents
Let us assume that the number of eggs bought = x
Then we can write the equation as
0.2x - (0.15x - 0.9) = 4.80
0.2x - 0.15x + 0.9 = 4.80
0.05x = 4.80 - 0.9
0.05x = 3.9
x = 3.9/0.05
= 78
So the number of eggs bought by him is 78
