Answer: 13%

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

5000

10% of 5000=500

5% of 5000=250

25%=500+500+250= 1250 rupees

so...

5000-1250= 3750 INR, which is the original price, <u>BEFORE THE 25% WAS ADDED</u>

but..

They only want a 10% discount of the price which is 25% above the cost (5000). So essentially we want to find  15%, because 25%-10%=15%

so if...

10%=500

5%=250

15%=750 INR

this means the price with the 10% discount off 25%= 4250 INR (5000-750)

now we need to find the percentage change. For this we need to subtract the price with the 15% discount with the price BEFORE THE 25% was added

e.g 4250-3750= 500INR

Then.. divide this price with the original price before the 25% was added

e.g 500/3750= 2/15=0.13

So...

Convert 0.13 into a percentage=13%

The PERCENTAGE PROFIT of the owner is 13%

P.S Please could someone double check this answer as I am only 15 years old and may have gotten some working out wrong! Thank you

Answer:

x = 3 or x = 2 or x = -1 or x = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

((x - 3) (x - 2) (x + 1) (x + 5))/x = 0

Multiply both sides by x:

(x - 3) (x - 2) (x + 1) (x + 5) = 0

Split into four equations:

x - 3 = 0 or x - 2 = 0 or x + 1 = 0 or x + 5 = 0

Add 3 to both sides:

x = 3 or x - 2 = 0 or x + 1 = 0 or x + 5 = 0

Add 2 to both sides:

x = 3 or x = 2 or x + 1 = 0 or x + 5 = 0

Subtract 1 from both sides:

x = 3 or x = 2 or x = -1 or x + 5 = 0

Subtract 5 from both sides:

Answer:  x = 3 or x = 2 or x = -1 or x = -5

What is the slope of the line?
Alja [10]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

slope, m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

plug in the values, and we get m = (3 - (-1))/((3 - 2) = 4

As x increases by 1, y increases by 4.

The length of pathway is 10 inches on map.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Total distance = 350 miles

According to map,

1 inch = 35 miles

Let, x be the number of inches on map.

Therefore, using proportion;

Inch : mile :: inch : mile

1:35::x:350\\

Product of mean = Product of extreme

35*x=350*1\\35x=350\\

Dividing both sides by 35;

\frac{35x}{35}=\frac{350}{35}\\x=10

The length of pathway is 10 inches on map.
