Harrizon [31]

Answer:

The marked price of the watch is $2,702.27.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since allowing 20% discount on the marked price of a watch, the value of the watch will be Rs. 2378, to determine, if the VAT of 10% is added, it's marked price, the following calculation must be performed:

1 - 0.2 = 0.8

0.8 x 1.1 = 2378

0.88 = 2378

0.8 = X

0.8 x 2378 / 0.88 = X

1,902.4 / 0.88 = X

2,161.81 = X

0.8 = 2,161.81

1 = X

2,161.81 / 0.8 = X

2,702.27 = X

Therefore, the marked price of the watch is 2,702.27.

Use substitution to solve the following system of linear equations and fill in the following blanks:

marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

$x=-4$

$y=3$

$z=-5$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$x+y+z=-6$

$x-6y-7z=-29$

$-7y-5z=4$

Solve for $x$ in the 1st equation:

$x+y+z=-6$

$x+y=-z-6$

$x=-y-z-6$

Substitute the value of $x$ into the 2nd equation and solve for $z$ :

$x-6y-7z=-29$

$(-y-z-6)-6y-7=-29$

$-7y-z-13=-29$

$-7y-z=-16$

$-z=-16+7y$

$z=16-7y$

Substitute the value of $z$ into the 3rd equation and solve for $y$ :

$-7y-5z=4$

$-7y-5(16-7y)=4$

$-7y-80+35y=4$

$28y-80=4$

$28y=84$

$y=3$

Plug $y=3$ into the solved expression for $z$ and evaluate to solve for $z$ :

$z=16-7(3)$

$z=16-21$

$z=-5$

Plug $z=-5$ into the solved expression for $x$ and evaluate to solve for $x$ :

$x=-(3)-(-5)-6$

$x=-3+5-6$

$x=2-6$

$x=-4$

Therefore:

$x=-4$

$y=3$

$z=-5$

Near the equator, the earth rotates approximately 34 kilometers every 32 seconds. what is the speed of earth's rotation near the

viktelen [127]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: The earth rotates 34 km every 32 seconds. We can simplify this by dividing both sides by 32. Now, we have 34/32 km every 32 seconds. Now, to further simplify this, we need to convert 34/32 to a mixed number 34/32 = 1 2/32 which then can be simplified to 1 1/16. So, near the equator, the speed of Earth's rotation is 1 1/16 km per second.
