A man bought 500 mangoes and found 1/4 of them rotten .If he sold the rest of mangoes at 3.36 each making 12% profit ,what was the cost price of each mango?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The cost price of each mango was $3

Step-by-step explanation:

The man bought 500 mangoes, but 1/4 of them were rotten. There were 1/4*500 = 125 rotten mangoes, thus the number of mangoes he sold is

500 - 125 = 375 mangoes

Selling them at $3.36 each, he had revenue of

375*3.36=$1,260

That amount includes the 12% profit, that is, it's 112% of the cost price, thus the cost price of all mangoes is

1,260 / 112 * 100 = $1,125

The price of each mango was $1,125 / 375 = $3

The cost price of each mango was $3

If a new-car buyer is randomly selected a. What is the probability that the buyer used an online search engine as part of the car-buying experience or skipped the test drive

Answers

Answer:

Prob (Online search or Skip test drive) = 0.69

Step-by-step explanation:

Prob (Online search) = P(OS) = 65% = 0.65

Prob (Skip test drive) = P (STD)  11% = 0.11

Prob (Online search & Skip test drive) = P (OS ⋂ STD) =  7% = 0.07

Prob (Online search or Skip test drive) = P (OS U STD) :-

P(OS) + P (STD) -  P (OS ⋂ STD)  

= 0.65 + 0.11 - 0.07  

= 0.69

Sven buying 3 1/3 pounds of wood. The wood costs 1.60 per pound. How much did Sven pay?

Answers

Answer:

$5.33

Step-by-step explanation:

If there are 3 1/3 lbs of wood and it's $1.60 per lb, then:

Turn the mixed number into an improper fraction first:

3 1/3 = 3/3 + 3/3 + 3/3 + 1/3

        = 10/3

Then, turn 1.60 into an improper fraction too:

1.6 = 1 6/10

     = 1 3/5

     = 5/5 + 3/5

     = 8/5

Then—letting x represent the number of lbs:

8/5x = 8/5 × 10/3

        = (8 × 10)/(5 × 3)

        = 80/15

        = 16/3

To put this in dollar/decimal form, simplify:

16 ÷ 3 = 5.3333333 . . .

          ≈ $5.33

A total of $20,000 is to be invested, some in bonds and some in certificates of deposit (CDs). If the amount invested in bonds is to exceed that in CDs by $3000, how much will be invested in each type of investment?

Answers

Answer:

$8,500 in CDs; $11,500 in bonds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c = amount invested in CDs.

Let b = amount invested in bonds.

"A total of $20,000 is to be invested, some in bonds and some in certificates of deposit (CDs)."

From the total investment, we get this equation.

c + b = 20000

"If the amount invested in bonds is to exceed that in CDs by $3000"

From the details of the amounts, we get this equation.

b = c + 3000

We have a system of equations in two unknowns.

c + b = 20000  Eq. 1

b = c + 3000  Eq. 2

Since Eq. 2 is already solved for b, we will use the substitution method to solve the system of equations.

Substitute b in Eq. 1 with c + 3000.

c + c + 3000 = 20000

2c + 3000 = 20000

2c = 17000

c = 8500

Now substitute c = 8500 in Eq. 2 and solve for b.

b = c + 3000

b = 8500 + 3000

b = 11500

Answer: $8,500 in CDs; $11,500 in bonds

What is the image of the rotation?

We can see that the original coordinates of point Q are (-4, 0).

If we apply a rotation of 180° about the point (0, 0), it is equivalent to a reflection around the y-axis.

It only changes the sign of the x-component.

Solve. x+y+z=−4 2x+3y−2z=10 −x+2y−3z=−12 Enter your answer, in the form (x,y,z), in the boxes in simplest terms. ( , , )

Answers

Answer:

(13, -10, -7)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x+y+z=−4 .................. 1

2x+3y−2z=10 .................... 2

−x+2y−3z=−12 ................... 3

Reduce the equation to two equations, two unknowns:

Add eqn 1 and 3

y+2y+(z-3z) = -4-12

3y - 2z = -16 .......... 4

Also multiply eqn 3 by 2:

−2x+4y−6z=−24 ................... 5

Add 2 to 5:

3y+4y+ (-2z-6z) = 10-24

7y-8z = -14 ............... 6

Equate 4 and 6

3y - 2z = -16 .......... 4 * 4

7y-8z = -14 ............... 6 * 1

...............................................

12y - 8z = -64

7y-8z = -14

Subtract the resulting equations

12y-7y = -64+14

5y = -50

y = -50/5

y = -10

Substitute y = -10 into equation 4 to get z:

3y - 2z = -16

3(-10)-2z = -16

-30-2z = -16

-2z = -16+30

-2z = 14

z = 14/-2

z = -7

Substitute y = -10, z = -7 into eqn 1 to get x:

x+y+z = -4

x-10-7 = -4

x-17 = -4

x = -4+17

x = 13

Hence (x, y, z) is (13, -10, -7)

The total area (painting and frame) is (2x+18)(2x+12) and this is equal to 432

4x^2 + 60x + 216 = 432

4x^2 + 60x - 216 = 0

x^2 + 15x - 54 = 0

(x+18)(x-3) = 0

Therefore x = {-18,3}

1. A daycare center charges a $100 sign up fee, plus $50 per week. Write an equation that represents the total cost, f(x), for x weeks.

b. Identify the y-intercept and interpret its meaning in the context of the problem.

d. Find the cost for a baby to attend daycare for 12 weeks. Write your answer using function notation.



e. Calculate f(-3). Explain what this question is asking you to find in the context of the problem, then discuss the reasonanbleness of this question and its answer.

Answers

Answer:

f(x)=50x+100

a)rate of change is 50

b)y-intercept is 100

c)x represents the no. of weeks

f(x) represents the  the total cost for x weeks.

d)f(12)=700

e)Cost and week cannot be negative

Step-by-step explanation:

Sign up fee at daycare = $100

Cost of 1 week = 50

Cost of x weeks = 50 x

So, Total cost = 100+50x

Thus f(x)=50x+100

a)

General equation : y=mx+c

m = slope = rate of change

On comparison

m = 50

So, rate of change is 50

50 is the cost of daycare per week

b)

y intercept : y intercept is a point where a line 's graph intersects (crosses) the Y-axis i.e. x=0

Substitute x = 0 in equation

f(x)=50(0)+100

f(0)=100

So, y-intercept is 100

$100 is a signup fee

c)

x represents the no. of weeks

f(x) represents the  the total cost for x weeks.

d)

Substitute x = 12

So, Cost for a baby to attend daycare for 12 weeks:

f(12)=50(12)+100

f(12)=700

e)

f(-3)=50(-3)+100=-50

Here it is asking about negative 3 weeks which is not possible

Since no. of weeks cannot be negative

On solving we are getting the negative total cost

Cost and week cannot be negative

Step-by-step explanation:

l = 2t+20

l = 4t-10

2t+20=4t-10

30=2t

15=t (so that means that there would be 15 turkey decorations, but we're not            done yet)

substitute (either equation):

l = 2(15)+20

l = 30+20

l = 50 (so this means there would be 50 leaves)

Plot point F so that △ABC ≅ △FGH. Identify a sequence of rigid motions that maps △ABC onto △FGH and use a theorem to complete the explanation of why the triangles are congruent.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Point F is plotted at (5, 4)

Translate ΔABC so that point B maps to point G.

B(1, -1) → G(0, 3)  

Rule for the translation,

(x, y) → [x - 1, y + 4]

By this rule,

Point C will map the point,

C(-1, -2) → C'[(-1 - 1), (-2 + 4)]

             → C'(-2, 2)

A(-4, 0) → A'[(-4 - 1), (0 + 4)]

           → A'(-5, 4)

Now reflect these points across y-axis.

Rule for the reflection across y-axis,    

(x, y) → (-x, y)

Points after reflection will be,

A'(-5, 4) → F(5, 4)

B'(0, 3) → G(0, 3)

C'(-2, 2) → H(2, 2)

Distance formula,

d = [tex]\sqrt{(y_2-y_1)^2+(x_2-x_1)^2}[/tex]

AB = [tex]\sqrt{(1+4)^2+(-1-0)^2}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{26}[/tex]

BC = [tex]\sqrt{(-2+1)^2+(-1-1)^2}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{5}[/tex]

CA = [tex]\sqrt{(-4+1)^2+(-2-0)^2}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{13}[/tex]

GH = [tex]\sqrt{(2-0)^2+(2-3)^2}=\sqrt{5}[/tex]

HF = [tex]\sqrt{(4-2)^2+(5-2)^2}=\sqrt{13}[/tex]
