An article when sold at a profit of 5% yields Rs 50 more than when sold at a loss of 5%. What was the cost price of the article?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

  Rs 500

Step-by-step explanation:

For cost c, the price that gives a 5% profit is ...

  c + 5%·c = 1.05c

The price that gives a 5% loss is ...

  c -5%·c = 0.95c

The difference of these prices is Rs 50:

  1.05c -0.95c = 50

  0.10c = 50 . . . . simplify

  c = 500 . . . . . . . divide by 0.1

The cost price of the article is Rs 500.

b. {x | 0.5 < x < 4.5}
c. {x | x = -4.5 or x = 4.5}

Answers

x = 4.5 x = .5

Solve the quadratic equation by using a numeric approach.

a. x = 1.3 and x = -23.2
c. x = 5.6 and x = -32.3
b. x = 2.8 and x = -20.5
d. x = 6.3 and x = -31.3

Answers

The solution to the quadratic equation by using a numeric approach

are x = 6.3 and x = -31.3

Given the quadratic function expressed as;

0.02x²+ 0.5x - 4 = 0

Multiply through by 100 to have;

2x² + 50x - 400 = 0

Using the general formula to solve:

x = -50±√2500-4(2)(-400)/2(2)

x = -50±√2500+3200/4

x = -50±75.49/4

x = -31.3 or 6.3

Hence the solution to the quadratic equation by using a numeric approach

are x = 6.3 and x = -31.3

Find the value of x.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The top left angle is 55 (alternate interior angles).

x + 100 + 55 = 180                     All triangles are made up of 180 degrees

x + 155 = 180                             Subtract 155 from both sides.

x = 180 - 155                              Combine

x = 25

Answer: x = 25°Step-by-step explanation:=> 55 + 100 + x = 180 [The '100' came into this equation because of vertically opposite angles.]=> 155 + x = 180=> x = 25°Conclusion:

Hence, 'x = 25°' is the value of 'x'

i’ve also attached a picture of the problem if you get confused on the typing

Answers

Answer:

x= 5 or x= -5

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] \frac{x + 4}{3} = \frac{3}{x - 4} [/tex]

Cross multiply:

(x +4)(x -4)= 3(3)

Expand:

[tex]\boxed{a {}^{2} - {b}^{2} = (a + b)(a - b)}[/tex]

x² -4²= 9

x² -16= 9

+16 on both sides:

x²= 9 +16

x²= 25

Square root both sides:

[tex]x = ± \sqrt{25} [/tex]

x= 5 or x= -5

Given that:

[(x+4)/3] = [3/(x-4)]

We know that

(a/b) = (c/d)

⇛a(d) = b(c)

Now,

By using cross multiplying fraction, we get

⇛x+4(x-4) = 3(3)

⇛x(x-4) + 4(x-4) = 9

⇛x² - 4x + 4x - 16 = 9

⇛x² - 0 -16 = 9

⇛x² = 9+16

⇛x² = 25

⇛x = √(25)

⇛x = ±√(5*5)

⇛x = ±5 = +5 or -5 Ans.

Clara is making a pennant. She attaches a rectangle that is 1 inch wide and 6 inches long to a triangle that has a base of 6 inches and a height of 28 inches. What is the area of the
pennant?

Answers

The area of the pennant made by Clara is 90 in²

Area

Area is the amount of space taken up by a two dimensional figure. It measures the quantity of space covered by the figure.

Area of the rectangle = length * width = 6 in * 1 in = 6 in²

Area of triangle = (1/2) * base * height = (1/2) * 6 in * 28 in = 84 in²

Area of the pennant = 6 in² + 84 in² = 90 in²
