The cash payment for the article is RS. 2,260.

A discount reduces the price of an item. The article becomes cheaper after the discount.

Cost of the article after the RS. 20 discount = RS. 2020 - 20 = RS 2000

VAT means value added tax. VAT increases the price of an item. The cost of the article increases by 13% after the VAT is levied,

Cost of the article = (100 + 13%) x 2000

1.13 x 2000 = RS 2,260.

How are natural numbers, whole numbers and integers used in everyday life?

Nezavi [6.7K]

Natural numbers: Counting things! You look around your room and see an electronic device, then another, then another! You just counted to 3 using the natural numbers.

Whole numbers! You try to look for electronic devices and realise that they’re all gone. You have zero electronic devices, and you just used whole numbers.

You go online to find where your electronic devices went, and realise they were taken because you’re in debt to the bank so they took some of your stuff. You’re in negative numbers, and now you’ve used integers.

Answer:

$0.54

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The jars of peanut butter that I buy cost $7.20 each and normally contain 500 grams.

At present, however, each jar contains an extra 20% free.

And additionally, the supermarket has a "buy 3 jars get another one free''.

Question asked:

By how much is the cost per 100 grams of peanut butter less than it normally is if I take full advantage of the supermarket's offer today?

Solution:

Cost of a jars of peanut = $7.20

Normally, weight of peanut butter in one packet = 500 gram

At supermarket offer, each jar contains an extra 20% free, means a packet of peanut butter contains = 500 + 20% of 500 $=500+500\times \frac{20}{100} =500+100=600\ gram$

And extra benefit = buy 3 jars get another one free, means we will get 4 jars by just giving price of only 3 jars.

That means, total weight of peanut butter you are getting by giving 3 packet's price = Each jar weigh $\times$ number of jars

= 600 $\times$ 4 = 2400 gram

Cost of each packet will be same as previously as during the offer; $7.20

Cost of 3 packet's peanut (2400 gram) = $7.20\times3=\$21.6$

Now, we will calculate cost per 100 grams of peanut butter :

During offer:

Cost of 2400 grams of peanut butter = $21.6

Cost of 1 gram of peanut butter = $\frac{21.6}{2400}$

Cost of 100 gram of peanut butter = $\frac{21.6}{2400}\times100=\frac{2160}{2400} =\$0.9$

Normal day:

Cost of 500 grams of peanut butter = $7.20

Cost of 1 gram of peanut butter = $\frac{7.20}{500}$

Cost of 100 gram of peanut butter = $\frac{7.20}{500}\times100=\frac{720}{500} =\$1.44$

We found that cost of 100 gram of peanut butter in normal day is $1.44 while cost of 100 gram of peanut butter during offer is $0.9 means cost per 100 gram during offer is ($1.44 - $0.9 = )$0.54 less than cost during normal day.

Conclusion:

Therefore, cost per 100 grams of peanut butter is $0.54 less than it is normally if you take full advantage of the supermarket's offer today.

Choose the correct simplification of (8x4y3)2. And please explain step by step THANK YOU!!!!

Irina-Kira [14]

So you need to use the distributive property. First, solve inside the parentheses. So, 8x times 4y is 32xy, then multiply that by 3 to get 96xy, now multiply 96xy by 2 to get your final answer of 192xy.
