Divide both sides by .5
n= £ 35
Answer:
60%
Step-by-step explanation:
If I get you right, you're asking for the percentage gain to the nearest percentage, right?
Now to do this, we need to get the amount of profit she made. That's quite easy, we only need to subtract the cost price from the selling price. And that equals $15 - $9.38 that equals $5.62.
Now, we divide this value by the cost price and multiply by 100% to get the percentage gain.
I.e 5.62/9.38 × 100%.
That gives 59.9% , which equals 60% when approximated to the nearest percentage.
Answer:
The distance formula uses the coordinates of points and the Pythagorean Theorem to calculate the distance between points. If A and B form the hypotenuse of a right triangle, then the length of AB can be found using this formula, leg2 + leg2 = hypotenuse2 (or you can use A squared + B squared = C squared)

Answer: $0.58
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Let x represent pencil and y represent eraser
10x + 7y = 4.23 → 1(10x + 7y = 4.23) → 10x + 7y = 4.23
3x + y = 0.95 → -3(3x + y = 0.95) → <u>-21x - 7y</u> =<u> -6.65 </u>
-11x = -2.42
<u>÷-11 </u> <u>÷-11 </u>
x = 0.22
3x + y = 0.95
3(0.22) + y = 0.95
0.66 + y = 0.95
y = 0.29
2y = 2(0.29) = 0.58
