Jai bought a helmet and a pair of skates.
The helmet cost £45.
He sold both items for £224.
Jai made a 120% profit on the cost of the helmet and a 40% profit on the total cost.
What was the percentage profit on the skates?
Give your answer to 1 decimal place.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Profit % on skates = 8.7 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 : Find cost price of skates

Cost price of helmet = £45

Let cost price of skate be = x

Selling price = £224

Cost price = (x + 45)

Total profit % = 40%

[tex]Profit \% = \frac{Selling \ price - cost \ price }{Cost \ price} \times 100[/tex]

[tex]\frac{40}{100} = \frac{224 - (x + 45)}{(x + 45)}\\\\40(x+ 45) = 100(224 - (x +45))\\\\40(x + 45) = 22400 - 100(x + 45)\\\\40(x +45) + 100(x+ 45) = 22400\\\\140(x + 25) = 22400\\\\x + 45 = \frac{22400}{140}\\\\x = 160 - 45 = \£ \ 115[/tex]

Total cost price = 45 + 115 = £160

Step 2 : Selling price of Helmet

Cost price of Helmet = £45

Let selling price of helmet be = y

Profit % of helmet = 120 %

[tex]Profit \% = \frac{selling \ price - cost \ price}{cost \ price}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{120}{100} = \frac{y -45}{45}\\\\\frac{120 \times 45}{100} = y -45\\\\54 = y - 45\\\\99 = y[/tex]

Step 3 : Selling price of skates

Total selling = selling price of helmet + selling price of skates

224 = 99 + selling price of skates

224 - 99 = selling price of skates

125 = selling price of skates

Step 4 : Profit percentage on skates

Cost price of skate = £ 115

Selling price of skate = £ 125

[tex]Profit \% \ on \ skates = \frac{selling\ price- cost \ price }{cost \ price} \times 100[/tex]

                           [tex]= \frac{125-115}{115} \times 100\\\\=\frac{10}{115} \times 100\\\\= 8.7 \%[/tex]

What is area of a rectangle ?

The area of a rectangle of length =l and breadth =b is length times its breadth . General formula of calculating area of rectangle is  length * breadth

In first case we are dividing the figure horizontally

in which there occur an upper small rectangle of l = 12cm and breadth = 9 cm and a big rectangle of L 20cm and B= 9cm

area of 1st rectangle= l*b = 12 * 9 = 108 cm^2

area of 2nd rectangle = L*B = 20 * 9 = 180 cm ^ 2

area of complete figure in 1st way  = area of 1st rectangle + area of 2nd rectangle

                                       = 108 + 180 = 288 cm^2

In second case we are dividing the figure vertically

in which there occur an  small rectangle of l = 8cm and breadth = 9 cm and a big rectangle of L =18cm and B= 12cm

area of 1st rectangle= l*b = 8 * 9 = 72 cm^2

area of 2nd rectangle = L*B = 18 * 12= 216 cm ^ 2

area of complete figure in 2nd way = area of 1st rectangle + area of 2nd rectangle

                                       = 72 + 216 = 288cm^2

The Sugar Sweet Company is going to transport its sugar to market. It will cost $3375 to rent trucks, and it will cost an additional $125 for each ton of sugar transported. Let C represent the total cost (in dollars), and let S represent the amount of sugar (in tons) transported. Write an equation relating C to S, and then graph your equation using the axes below.​

Answers

Answer:

C = 125S + $3750

Step-by-step explanation:

$ 3750  = truck rental;   $125 per ton of sugar transported.  C is the cost;  S is the number of tons transported. The equation relating C to S would be a linear equation like y = mx + b. This equation would be graphed in the first quadrant only. You would start with your y-intercept at (0, 3750). As x increases by 1, your y increases by 125 yielding these points:

(1, 3875)  (2, 4000)  (3, 4125)  etc.

This shows that for each increase by one ton of sugar, the cost goes up $125

How can he use the graph to find an equivalent ratio?

He knows the relation:

3 cups of granola ⇒ 0.75 cups of raisins.

Assuming this is a proportional relation of the form:

y = k*x

Where k is a constant.

Then when x = 0, we also have y = 0, so the line also passes through the point (0, 0), which is the origin.

A cylinder has a volume of 187 cubic inches. If the radius is 3 inches, what is the height of the cylinder in inches?

Someone please help

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

V = pi r^2 h

V = 187

pi = 3.14

r = 3

h = ?

187 = 3.14 * 3^2 * h

187 = 3.14 * 9 * h

187 = 28.26 * h

187 / 28.26 = h

h = 6.62

Answer:

The height of cylinder is 6.61 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :- Volume of cylinder = 187 inches ³.Radius of cylinder, r = 3 inches

We need to Find :-Height of cylinder , h

Formula Used :-

Volume of cylinder = π × r ² × h

Where,

r is the radius of cylinder. h is the height of cylinder.

Solution :-

Using Formula

Volume of cylinder = π × r ² × h

Substitute the values

187 inches ³ = π × ( 3 inches ) ² × h

Using π = 3.14

187 inches ³ = 3.14 × 9 inches ² × h

multiply

187 inches ³ = 28.26 inches ² × h

Divide , we get

187 inches ³ / 28.26 = h

6.61 inches = h

Therefore, The height of cylinder is 6.61 inches.

what is the result of a dilation of scale factor 3 centered at the origin of the line 2y + 3x=10

Answers

Answer:

(10, 15)

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the origin of the equation 2y+3x = 10, we need to get the x and y-intercept of the line.

x-intercept occurs at y = 0

If y = 0

2(0)+3x =10

3x =10

x = 10/3

x = 1.33

y-intercept occurs at x = 0

If x = 0

2y+3(0) =10

2y =10

y = 10/2

y = 5

Hence the coordinate at the origin is (10/3, 5). If this coordinate is dilated by 3, the required coordinate will be at (10/3*3, 5*3) = (10, 15)

Hence the required coordinate is (10, 15)

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The position of an atom moving inside a cathode ray tube is given by the function:

[tex]f(t)=t^3-4t^2+3t[/tex]

Where f(t) is in meters and t is in seconds.

And we want to determine its instantaneous velocity at t = 2.5 seconds.

The velocity function is the derivative of the position function. Thus, find the derivative of the function:

[tex]f'(t)=3t^2-8t+3[/tex]

Then the instantaneous velocity at t = 2.5 will be:

[tex]f'(2.5)=3(2.5)^2-8(2.5)+3=1.75\text{ m/sec}[/tex]

Our answer is A.

Answer:

Instantaneous Velocity:
