A trader purchased 1,000 books at the rate of $5.40 per book and spent $200 towards transportation. If he wants to earn a profit of 12.5%, at what price should he sell each book?
( with explanation )

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

$6.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of one book =  $5.40

cost of 1000 books = 1000* Cost of one book  =  $5.40*1000 = $5400

Transportation cost for all the books = $200

Thus, total cost for all the books = cost of 1000 books + Transportation cost for all the books  = $5400 + $200 = $5600.

Given , trader wants to earn a profit of 12.5%

thus, we find 12.5 % of total cost incurred by trader

12.5 % of total cost incurred by trader = 12.5/100 *  $5600. = $700

Thus, total profit for 1000 books will be $700

we know that

selling price = cost price + profit

therefore, in the given problem

selling price for 1000 books =  total cost for 1000 books + total profit

substituting the value as calculated above

selling price for 1000 books = $5600 + $700 = $6300

To find selling price for one book, lets divide LHS and RHS by 1000

selling price for 1000/100 books = $6300/1000 = $6.3

Thus, trader should sell each book at $6.3 to earn a profit of 12.5%.

shaded region(outer)

A=πr^2

A=π*9^2

Area of shaded region=254.46cm^2-113.09cm^2

Radius of the outer circle = 9cm

Area of a circle = πr²

= π×9×9

= 254.34cm²

Radius of the inner circle = 6cm

Area of a circle = πr²

= π×6×6

[tex]2x - 3y = 12[/tex]

[tex]-4(2x - 3y) = -4(12)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]y = \frac{2}{3}x - 4[/tex]

Required

Equivalents of the given equation;

We start by multiply both sides of the equation by 3

[tex]3* y = 3(\frac{2}{3}x - 4)[/tex]

[tex]3y = 3 * \frac{2}{3}x - 3 * 4[/tex]

[tex]3y = 2x - 12[/tex] ---- Equation 1

Subtract 3y from both sides

[tex]-3y + 3y = 2x - 12 - 3y[/tex]

[tex]0 = 2x - 12 - 3y[/tex]

Add 12 to both sides

[tex]12 + 0 = 2x - 12 - 3y + 12[/tex]

[tex]12 = 2x - 3y[/tex]

Rearrange:

[tex]2x - 3y = 12[/tex] ---- This is equivalent to the given equation;

Multiply both sides of the above equation by -4

[tex]2x - 3y = 12[/tex]

[tex]-4(2x - 3y) = -4(12)[/tex]  ---- This is also equivalent to the given equation;

Answers

Answer:

We have to find the value of cosine for an angle with point ( 5, - 12 ) on its terminating side. First we have to find the hypotenuse ( Adjacent = 5, Opposite = 12 ) : c^2 = 5^2 + 12^2 = 25 + 144 = 169; c = sqrt(169 ), c = 13. Cosine for an angle = Adjacent / Hypotenuse = 5 / 13 = 0.385. Answer: The value of cosine is 5/13, Hope that helps!.

The first column has no label with entries L A residents, N Y C residents, total. The second column is labeled own a car with entries 3,251; 1,478, 4,729. The third column is labeled do not own a car with entries 869; 6,182; 7,051. The fourth column is labeled total with entries 4,120; 7,660; 11,780. Which statement about the two-way frequency table is true? The survey represents quantitative data. There is a greater percentage of LA residents who own a car than NYC residents who do. The total number of people in the poll who own a car is 4,120. More people in the poll own a car than do not own a car.

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is;

There is a greater percentage of LA residents who own a car than NYC residents who do

Step-by-step explanation:

The values are presented as follows;

LA residents who own a car = 3251

NYC residents who own a car = 1478

Total residents who own a car = 4729

LA residents who do not own a car = 869

NYC residents who do not own a car = 6182

Total residents who do not own a car = 7051

Total LA residents sampled = 4120

Total NYC residents sampled = 7660

Total residents of both cities sampled = 11780

Percentage of LA residents who own a car = (3251/4120)×100 = 78.9%

Percentage of NYC residents who own a car = (1478/7660)×100 = 19.3%

The total number of people in the poll who own a car = 4729

Therefore, the correct option is that there is a greater percentage of LA residents who own a car than NYC residents who do.

Answer: B. There is a greater percentage of LA residents who own a car than NYC residents who do.

I don’t know how to label the sides as “opposite, adjacent, hypotenuse” so I’m not sure which formula to use

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

The opposite side is the side of the triangle facing the given angle. The adjacent side is the side that the given angle and the right angle lies on. The hypotenuse side is the side facing the right angle. (The hypotenuse side usually looks like a slanted line. Do note that this is not true if your adjacent and hypotenuse side is not horizontal and vertical respectively on the plane of your paper.)

I'll explain a bit more below using the some of the questions.

Q1) The given angle here is 27°.

X is facing the given angle hence it is the opposite side.

The side that is 10 units long is the adjacent side as 27° and the right angle sits on it.

tanθ= opp/adj

tan27°= x/ 10

x= 10(tan 27°)

x= 5.1 units (nearest tenth)

Q3) x is the adjacent side, while the side that is 7 units long is the hypotenuse side.

cosθ= adj/hyp

cos39°= x/7

x= 7(cos39°)

x= 5.4 units (nearest tenth)

Q4) x is the hypotenuse and the opposite side is 8 units long.

sinθ= opp/hyp

sin46°= 8/x

x(sin46°)= 8

x= 8/ sin46°

x= 11.1 units (nearest tenth)

Q5) x is facing the given angle, hence it is the opposite side. The adjacent side is given here, which is 6 units long.

tanθ= opp/adj

tan23°= x/6

x= 6(tan 23°)

x= 2.5 units (nearest tenth)

Feel free to ask if you still do not understand any concepts :)

sinθ= opp/hyp

cosθ= adj/hyp

tanθ= opp/adj

jet flies over the Air Force Base at 10:20
am At 10:32 am, the plane passes over the
Ilary Base Station, 120 miles away. How fast
is the aircraft traveling?​

Answers

Answer:

The speed of aircraft is 600 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given distance = 120 miles

Time for which jet flew : from 10:20 AM to 10:32 AM

Total duration for which jet flew =  10:32 - 10:20  = 12 minutes

(from 10 hours 32 minutes and 10 hours 20 minutes

10 hours gets cancelled, 32 minutes - 20 minutes is 12 minutes)

here time is in minutes, we have to convert it in hours

we know

60 minutes = 1 hour

1 minutes = 1/60 hour

multiplying LHS and RHS by 12

1*12 minutes =  (1/60) *12hour

12 minutes =  (1/60) *12hour

12 minutes = 1/5 hours

We know

speed = distance / time

distance = 120 miles

time = 1/5 hours

speed = 120 miles/ (1/5 hours)

speed = 120 * 5 mph = 600 mph

The speed of aircraft is 600 mph.
