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.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the area of similar figures is the ratio between corresponding sides squared. This means that 64/4 or 16 is the square of the ratio of corresponding sides. By taking the square root of 16, we get that ratio is 4.

Seena’s mother is 7 times as old as Seena. After 4 years
her mother will be 4 times as old as she will be then .Find
their present ages.

Answers

Given :

Seena’s mother is 4 times as old as Seena. After 5 years her mother will be 3 times as old as she will be then .Find their present ages.

Solution :

Let us assume :

Seena's age be x

Her mother's age be 4x

After 5 years :

Seena's age = x + 5

Her mother's age = 4x + 5

Ratio of age after 5 years :

Seena's mother = 3

Seena's ratio = 1

Hence, the equation is :

[tex] \looparrowright\frak{ \frac{4x + 5}{x + 5} = \frac{3}{1} }[/tex]

By cross multiplying we get

[tex] \looparrowright \frak{3(x + 5) = 4x + 5}[/tex]

[tex] \looparrowright \frak{3x + 15 = 4x + 5}[/tex]

[tex] \looparrowright \frak{x = 10}[/tex]

Hence, the ages are

Seena's age = x = 10 yrs

Her mother's age = 4x = 4 × 10 = 40 years

Seena's age is 10 and her mother's is 40 respectively

The awnser is (-1, 3)

Answer:

x = -1 y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 2y-7

2x + 3y = 7

Substitute x =2y-7 in 2y + 3y = 7

2(2y-7) + 3y = 7

4y-14+3y = 7

7y - 14 = 7

7y = 7 + 14

7y = 21

7y/7 = 21/7

y = 3

Substitute 3 for y in x = 2y-7

x = 2(3) - 7

x = 6 -7

x = -1

Which of the following statements is true of the function ? Question 2 options: A) g(x) can be graphed by translating the basic rational function ƒ(x) 1∕x right by 3 units and downward by 5 units. B) g(x) can be graphed by translating the basic rational function ƒ(x) 1∕x left by 3 units and downward by 5 units. C) g(x) can be graphed by translating the basic rational function ƒ(x) 1∕x right by 3 units and downward by 5 units. D) g(x) can be graphed by translating the basic rational function ƒ(x) 1∕x left by 5 units and downward by 3 units.

Answers

Transformations are operators that can act on functions, modifying them in different ways. In this particular problem, we see the translations.

The correct option is B:

g(x) can be graphed by translating the basic rational function ƒ(x)=  1∕x left by 3 units and downward by 5 units.

Let's describe the transformations:

Horizontal translation:

For a general function f(x), a horizontal translation of N units is written as:

g(x) = f(x + N)

If N is positive, the shift is to the left.

If N is negative, the shift is to the right

Vertical translation:

For a general function f(x), a vertical translation of N units is written as:

g(x) = f(x) + N

If N is positive, the shift is upwards.

If N is negative, the shift is downwards.

Now that we know this, let's see the problem.

We have:

[tex]g(x) = \frac{1}{x + 3} - 5[/tex]

So, the original function is:

[tex]f(x) = \frac{1}{x}[/tex]

Now from f(x) we can apply translations to create g(x).

If first, we apply a translation of 3 units to the left, we get:

[tex]g(x) = f(x + 3) = \frac{1}{x + 3}[/tex]

If now we apply a translation of 5 units downwards, we get:

[tex]g(x) = f(x + 3) - 5 = \frac{1}{x + 3} - 5[/tex]

So we can conclude that the correct option is B:

g(x) can be graphed by translating the basic rational function ƒ(x) 1∕x left by 3 units and downward by 5 units.

there are nickels, dimes, and quarters in a piggy bank. altogether, the coins are worth $3.65. the number of dimes is three times greater than the number of nickels, and the number of quarters is one greater than double the number of nickels. how many quarters, nickels, and dimes are there?

Answers

This question is solved using a system of equations, and doing this, we get that: There are 9 quarters, 4 nickels and 12 dimes.

I am going to say that:

x is the number of nickels.

y is the number of dimes.

z is the number of quarters.

In all, they are worth $3.65.

A nickel is worth $0.05, a dime is worth $0.1 and a quarter is worth $0.25, so:

[tex]0.05x + 0.1y + 0.25z = 3.65[/tex]

Dimes: 3 times greater than nickels:

This means that:

[tex]y = 3x[/tex]

Quarters: One greater than double the number of nickels:

This means that:

[tex]z = 2x + 1[/tex]

Value of x:

We have y and z as function of x, so we can replace into the equation and find the value of x, so:

[tex]0.05x + 0.1y + 0.25z = 3.65[/tex]

[tex]0.05x + 0.1(3x) + 0.25(2x+1) = 3.65[/tex]

[tex]0.05x + 0.3x + 0.5x + 0.25 = 3.65[/tex]

[tex]0.85x = 3.4[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{3.4}{0.85}[/tex]

[tex]x = 4[/tex]

y and z:

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

[tex]z = 2x + 1 = 2(4) + 1 = 9[/tex]

There are 9 quarters, 4 nickels and 12 dimes.

Given three consecutive odd integers whose sum is 369, find the smallest of the three integers.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

369 = x + (x+2) + (x+4)

369 = 3x + 6

363 = 3x

121 = x

now that we know that x = 121, we can solve the equation by plugging in the variable

369 = x + (x+2) + (x+4)

369 = 121 + 123 + 125

369 = 369

The smallest three integers are 121,123 and 125.

Let, the smallest odd integers be n

Then according to the given condition,

[tex]n+(n+2)+(n+4)=369\\3n+6=369\\3n=363\\n=121[/tex]

So, the numbers are,

[tex]n=121\\n+2=121+2=123\\n+4=121+4=125[/tex]
