Numerals are symbols and figures that are used to denote or represent numbers.

It is false that “for a set of whole numbers, the longest numeral will belong to the largest number”

<h3>How to determine the true statement</h3>

The length of a numeral does not determine the value of the number,

The above statement means that

The whole number with the longest numeral in a set may or may not be the largest.

Take for instance the numbers 8 and 9.

In Roman numerals,

8 is represented with VIII and 9 is represented with IX

The numeral VIII is longer than the numeral IX, but IX is greater than VIII

Hence, the statement is false

D) If C.P. - Rs 100, S.P. Rs 80, then loss percent

AfilCa [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

Selling price = Rs.80

Cost price = Rs.100

here, CP > SP

Now...

Loss ( L ) = CP - SP

= RS.100 - 80

= Rs.20

Now...

$loss \: percent \: = \frac{loss}{CP} \times 100%$

$= \frac{2000}{100} \\$

= 20 %

If y varies inversely as x and y=23 when x=8 find y when x=4

valina [46]

<h2>INVERSE VARIATION</h2>

EQUATION: 

$y = \frac{k}{x}$

––––––––

First, find the constant of variation k using the formula k=xy.

$23 = \frac{k}{8}$

$k = (8)(23)$

$k = 184$

––––––––

Then, find y if x is equal to four using the formula y=184/x.

$y = \frac{184}{x}$

$y = \frac{184}{4}$

$y = 46$
