a shopkeeper allows 10% discount on his goods to make 20% profit, if he sold a watch for Rs.10170 with 13% vat, by what percent is the discount to be increased to make only 12% profit

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

16% of MP

Step-by-step explanation:

Key concepts to learn :

Discount is always applied on marked price.

Profit = SP - CP

VAT is applied on Selling Price

SP = 10170/113 x 100 = 9000

If profit is 20% then :

CP = 9000/120 x 100 = 7500

MP = 9000/90 x 100 = 10000

For 12% profit, SP = 7500 x 112/100 = 8400

=> SP = 8400/10000 x 100 = 84% of MP

=> Discount = 16% of MP

An office supply store recently sold a black printer ink cartridge for $14.99 and a color printer ink cartridge for $20.99. At start of a recent fall semester, a total of 42 of these cartidges was sold for a total of $695.58. How many of each type were purchased?

Answers

Answer:

B = 31, C = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Let B be the number of Black printer ink cartridges and C be the number of color printer ink cartridges.

42 were sold in total, hence,

B+C= 42 ------------(1)

Also, its given that

14.99 B+20.99C= 695.58 ------(2)

Multiplying (1) by 20.99,

14.99 B+14.99 C= 629.58 ------(3)

Now, subtracting (3) from (2),

14.99 B+20.99C= 695.58

14.99 B+14.99 C= 629.58

------------------------------------

6 C = 66

C= 66/6

C = 11

We know, B+ C= 49

Hence B = 42- 11 = 31

B = 31

Hence, number of Black printer ink cartridges = 31 and color printer ink cartridges = 11 .

Answer:

f(x) = 8(1/2)^x.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the graph, there is a point at (0, 8) and (1, 4).

That means that when x = 0, y = 8.

8 = a(b)^0

1a = 8

a = 8

That means that a = 8, and when x = 1, y = 4.

4 = 8(b)^1

4 = 8b

8b = 4

b = 4/8

b = 1/2

So, f(x) = 8(1/2)^x.

In exercises 22 24 , describe how the change affects the surface area of the right prism or right cylinder .

Answers

Answer:

  22. The surface area is 1/9 of its original value

  24. The surface area is 120 m^2 less than its original value.

Step-by-step explanation:

22. For similar figures, the surface area is proportional to the square of the linear dimension scale factor. Multiplying all linear dimensions by 1/3 will result in reducing the surface area to (1/3)^2 = 1/9 of its original value.

__

24. As above, the scaled base surface area will be (1/4)^2 = 1/16 of its original value. Since one dimension of the lateral area is multiplied by 4 and the other dimension is multiplied by 1/4, the net effect on that area is multiplication by (1/4)(4) = 1. That is, the lateral area will remain unchanged.

The overall surface area will be reduced by 15/16 of the area of the bases. The area of the bases is (2)(1/2)(8 m)(16 m) = 128 m^2. The changed figure will have a surface area that is 120 m^2 smaller.

whats the squareroot of 144 needs to be simplified

Answers

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

The square root of any number is basically asking "what number multiplied by itself will equal this number?"

Usually you memorize these, but there's also a quick way to do it.

We know that [tex]10\cdot10=100[/tex], so the square root must be greater than 10.

We also know that [tex]15\cdot15=225[/tex], so the square root must be less than 15.

A good mid point between these numbers is 13. Let's see what 13 squared is:

[tex]13\cdot13=169[/tex]

So it's a bit less than 13. Let's try 12.

[tex]12\cdot12=144[/tex]

So 12 is the square root of 144.

can someone help plz?

Answers

Answer:

x = 3

y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the fact that our have two variables and two equations, I'm going to assume you are trying to find the values of x and y.

For these two equations, let's first find the value of x using the equation elimination method.

We're going to eliminate the y variable by multiplying the first equation by 2 and then adding that new equation to the second equation.

7x - y = 22 ==> 14x - 2y = 44

4x + 2y + (14x - 2y) = 10 + (44)

18x + 0y = 54

x = 3

Now we plug the value of x back into one of the equations to find the value of y.

7x - y = 22

7(3) - y = 22

-y = 22 - 21

y = -1

So our values are as follows:

x = 3

y = -1

Sandy had test scores of 20, 25, 17, 22, and 21. What is the average (mean) score. On the next 3 test Sandy's score were 24, 24, and 23. What is her mean now?

Answers

Answer:

a) First Average mean = 21

b) Current mean = 22

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula For mean =

Sum of Terms/ Number of terms

a)Sandy had test scores of 20, 25, 17, 22, and 21.

Number of terms = 5

Mean = (20 + 25 + 17 + 22 + 21)/5

= 105/5

= 21

b) On the next 3 test Sandy's score were 24, 24, and 23

To calculate this current mean, we will add the first 5 test scores, with this current 3 test scores and then find the average.

Mean = (20+ 25+ 17 +22 +21 + 24 + 24 + 23)/8

Mean = 176/8

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

given that the ratio of the floor plan with that of the actual measurement =

                                                                 1 inch : 2 feet....................(1)

so we have to find the length of the house on the floor plan if the actual measurement is 8 feet.

using eq (1), we can say that the length on the floor plan will be half of the actual length.

therefore if the actual length of the house is 8 feet, then

                           length of the house on the floor plan = 8/2

                                                                                          = 4 inch

Explanation:

The formula you use is

A = pi*r^2

The radius is r = d/2 = 10/2 = 5

So,

A = pi*r^2 = pi*5^2 = pi*25 = 25pi

is the exact area

Replace pi with 3.14 to get 25*pi = 25*3.14 = 78.5

which is the approximate area

To get a better approximation, you would use more decimal digits of pi.

4 pumps can fill 800l of water in 20 min. In how many
minutes will 12 pumps fill 600l of water?
a) 6 min b) 5 min
c) 4 min d) 8 min​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

One pump will fill 200l in 20 minutes

So the rate of filling per pump will be 10l/minute (200/20)

Let the number of minutes it will take to fill the 600l be x minutes

Now, since the rate of filling per pump is 10 l/minute

Then in x minute, they would have filled 10l/minute * x = 10x liters

So it is now this 10x liters that will be equal to 600

To find x, we simply divide

10x = 600

x= 600/10

x = 6 minutes

The correct option is option C: [0,2] contains the local maximum.

What is the local maximum?

Local maximum is the relative maximum point where it is maximum within the neighborhood of that point.

From the graph shown in the picture, it is clear that,

the curved line touches the x axis at the point R(-2.5, 0), O(0, 0), and Q(3, 0).

similarly, the curved line touches the y-axis at O(0,0).

the graph has local minima at P(-0.8,-2.8) and Q(3, 0).

So the graph is below the x-axis between the point (-2.5, 0), (0, 0).

the graph has local maxima at S(1.55,10.8).

So the graph is above the x-axis between the point (0, 0), and (3, 0).

so the local maximum occurs at S(1.55,10.8).

From the option, it is clear that the point  (1.55,10.8) lies in the interval [0,2].

Therefore [0,2] contains the local maximum.
