Ella bought a 2 bedroom unit 12 years ago for $95 000 and recently sold it for $280 000 (after deducting selling costs).
a) Find the profit.
b) Find the profit as a percentage of the buying price.
c) Find the profit as a percentage of the selling price.
d) Which percentage profit sounds better as far as Ella is concerned?

pls explain, thanks!!!!​

Answers

Answer 1

C.P. = $95000

S.P. = $280000

a. Profit

= S.P. - C.P.

= $280000 - $95000

= $185000

b. Let the profit% of C.P. be x.

(x/100) × $95000 = $185000

=> x/100 = $185000/$95000

=> x/100 = 37/19

=> x = (37/19) × 100

=> x = 3700/19

=> x = 194 14/19

So, profit percent of buying price is 194 14/19%.

c. Let the profit% of S.P. be x.

(x/100) × $280000 = $185000

=> x/100 = $185000/$280000

=> x/100 = 37/56

=> x = (37/56) × 100

=> x = 3700/56

=> x = 925/14

=> x = 16 1/14

So, profit percent of selling price is 16 1/14%.

d. Buying price percentage profit sounds better as far as Ella is concerned.

Determine what type of model best fits the given stituation. Water leaking from a local reservoir at the rate of 500 gallons per hour.

Answers

Answer:

Well, in the local reservoir we have an initial amount of water A.

And per hour, the amount of water in the reservoir decreases by 500 gals.

So after t hours, the amount of water in the reservoir is:

W = A - 500gal*t

This is a linear equation, so the model that fits best in the given situation is a linear model.

Where the only thing that you need to take in mind, is that the domain of this model is restricted:

This is because we can not have a negative amount of water in the reservoir, so the maximum value of t accepted is:

W = 0 = A - 500gal*t

t = A/500 hours

So the domain of this linear relation is:

t ∈ {0h, A/500 }

If JK = 28, JL = 20, KL = 13, and ML = 22, calculate NL. Image not set to scale.

Answers

Answer:

NL  = 440 /13  or 33.85 (to two decimals)

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider triangles JKL and NML

angle JLK = angle NLM           vertical angles

angle KJL = angle MNL           given

Therefore triangles JKL and NML are similar

By proportion of corresponding sides of similar triangles,

NL / JL = LM / LK

Substitute given values

NL / 20 = 22 / 13

solve for NL

NL = 20*22 / 13 = 440 /13  or 33.85 (to two decimals)

Answer:

[tex]\huge \boxed{33.85}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

JL is similar to NL. KL is similar to ML.

We can use ratios to solve.

JL/KL = NL/ML

Let the length of NL be x.

20/13 = x/22

Cross multiply.

13 × x = 22 × 20

13x = 440

Divide both sides by 13.

(13x)/13 =440/13

x = 440/13 = 33.846154...

PLEASE HELP ME !!!!!!!!!!

if the distance of load from hinge and spring balance are 35 cm and 15 cm respectively. What is the load weight used if the applied force is 4N ?

Answers

Answer:

The load weight is 2.29 N

Step-by-step explanation:

We note that  at equilibrium, the sum of the moment and the sum of forces about a point is zero, therefore, we have;

∑M =0

∑F = 0

The parameters given are;

The distance of the load from the hinge = 35 cm

The distance of the load from the spring balance = 15 cm

The applied force on the spring balance = 4 N↑

The direction of the applied force on the spring balance = Upwards

Let the weight of the load = W↓

The direction of the weight of the load = Downwards

We use downward negative and upward positive coefficients for the forces

We take moment about the hinge as follows;

Sum of moments equals zero gives;

4 × (35 - 15) - W × 35 = 0

∴ 4 × (35 - 15) = W × 35

4 × 20 = W × 35

W = 4 × 20/35 = 2.29 N

The weight of the load = 2.29 N.

Answer:

The load weight is 2.29 N

Theresa volunteers at a food shelf. Today she is filling bags of oranges. When she started, there were 213 oranges. After filling x bags with 3 oranges each, there were fewer than 51 oranges left. How many bags of oranges did Theresa fill? Part c

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know that there are 213 oranges and Theresa fills each bag with 3 oranges, so we can represent each bag as 3x. She keeps filling until she reaches 51 oranges.

First. let's write this as an equation, She is starting with 213 oranges and filling x bags with 3 oranges to the point she has less than 51 oranges.

213 - 3x < 51

Now add 3x to both sides,

213 - 3x + 3x < 51 + 3x

213 < 51 + 3x

Now we subtract 51 from both sides,

213 - 51 < 51 - 51 + 3x

162 < 3x

Now we divide both sides by 3,

162/3 < 3x/3

We find the answer,

54 < x

x > 54 bags

Step-by-step explanation:

add up all numbers then input into a percentage calculator

Percentage of flu vaccine has been given 94.33%

What is percentage?

Percentage is defined as ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.

The physician have total 1500 flu injections

300 shots given in September,

450 shots given in October,

and 665 shots given in November,

Total flu vaccine has been given = 300+450+665 = 1415

Percentage of flu vaccine has been given = (1415/1500)×100%

Percentage of flu vaccine has been given = 0.9433×100%

Percentage of flu vaccine has been given = 94.33%

Hence, percentage of flu vaccine has been given 94.33%

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of the can is expressed as Length *Breadth* Height.

If the area of the can base is Length * Breadth

Volume of the can = area of the base of the can * Height

Given parameters

Volume of the can V = 3416.32cm³

Height of the can h = 17cm

Area of the base of the can

Substituting the given parameters into the formula we have;

V = Ah

What is trigonometry?

Studying the correlations between triangle side lengths and angles is the subject of trigonometry, a branch of mathematics. By using geometry to study astronomy, the field first appeared in the Hellenistic civilization during the third century BC. The earliest documented tables of values for trigonometric ratios (sometimes called trigonometric functions) such as sine were developed by mathematicians in India, while the Greeks concentrated on chord calculation.

Geodesy, surveying, celestial mechanics, and navigation are just a few of the fields where trigonometry has been used historically. The various identities of trigonometry are well recognized.

These trigonometric identities are frequently used to simplify, discover a more practical form for, or solve equations involving trigonometric expressions.

a table was sold at 20%loss but had it sold for RS 160 more these would have been a profit 20%. find cp​

Answers

Answer:

Rs 400

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that the cost price of the article = x

Selling price = S.P

Cost price = C.P

Loss = %Loss × C.P(percentage loss × Cost Price)

S.P = C.P - Loss

In the question, Loss = 20%

S.P = x - 20x/100

Find the Lowest Common Multiple

S.P= 100x - 20x/100

S.P = 80x/100.........Equation 1

In the question, we are told if the article was sold for RS 160 more, it would have made a profit of 20%

Profit = %profit × C.P(percentage profit × Cost Price)

S.P = C.P + Profit

In the question, profit = 20%

S.P = x + 20x/100

Find the Lowest Common Multiple

S.P= 100x + 20x/100

S.P = 120x/100.........Equation 2

Hence,

Equation 2 - Equation 1 = Rs 160

= 120x/100 - 80x/100 = 160

= 40x/100 = 160

Cross multiply

40x = 100 × 160

40x = 16000

x = 16000/40

x = Rs 400

Since x = Cost price, the cost price of the table = Rs 400

Answers

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression (8x² −15x)−(x² −27x) = ax² +bx, we are to determine the value of b-a. Before we determine the vwlue of b-a, we need to first calculate for the value of a and b from the given expression.

On expanding the left hand side of the expression we have;

= (8x² −15x)−(x² −27x)

Open the paranthesis

= 8x² −15x−x²+27x

collect the like terms

= 8x²−x²+27x −15x

=  7x²+12x

Comparing the resulting expression with ax²+bx

7x²+12x =  ax²+bx

7x² = ax²

a = 7

Also;

12x = bx

b =12

The value of b - a = 12 - 7

b -a = 5

Hence the value of b-a is equivalent to 5

The value of b minus a is 5

Calculation of the value:

Since the expression is

[tex](8x^2 -15x)-(x^2 -27x) = ax^2 +bx[/tex]

Here we have to expand the left-hand side of the expression so it should be like

[tex]= (8x^2 -15x)-(x^2 -27x)\\\\= 8x^2 -15x-x^2+27x\\\\= 8x^2-x^2+27x -15x\\\\= 7x^2+12x[/tex]

Now

[tex]7x^2+12x = ax^2+bx\\\\7x^2 = ax^2[/tex]

a = 7

Also;

12x = bx

b =12

So,

The value of b - a = 12 - 7

b -a = 5

Hence the value of b-a should be 5
