Nandan bought some pencils at the rate of Rs 20 per pencil . He also bought an equal number of erasers at the rate of Rs 4 per eraser . He made 40 % profit on pencils and 50 % profit on erasers . At the end of the day, all the pencils and erasers were sold out and he made a profit of Rs 470 . Find the number of pencils he purchased.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

47 pencil

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of pencils that were bought. Since equal number of erasers where also purchased, hence x erasers were purchased.

Cost of pencils = Rs 20 per pencil * x pencils = 20x

Cost of erasers = Rs 4 per eraser * x eraser = 4x

40% profit was made on pencils, hence:

Profit on pencils = 40% of cost price = 0.4 * 20x = 8x

50% profit was made on erasers, hence:

Profit on eraser = 50% of cost price = 0.5 * 4x = 2x

Since the total profit from pencil and eraser was Rs 470, hence:

8x + 2x = 470

10x = 470

x = 47

Therefore he purchased 47 pencil

If y=3x and 2x−4y=3 , then x=


Answers

Answer:

x = -3/10

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x by substituting y = 3x into the other equation:

2x - 4y = 3

2x - 4(3x) = 3

Simplify and solve for x:

2x - 12x = 3

-10x = 3

x = -3/10

So, x = -3/10

Answer:

[tex]x=-\frac{3}{10}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 4y = 3

y = 3x

2x - 4(y = 3x) = 3

2x - 4(3x = 3)

2x - 12x = 3

- 10x = 3

- 10x ÷ - 10 = 3 ÷ - 10

[tex]x=-\frac{3}{10}[/tex]

the system of equatuions 2y = 14 - 2x and y= -x+7 is graphed. what is the solution to the system of equations

Answers

Answer:

the solution is the whole line y = -x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

both equations are identical

2y = 14 - 2x

=> y = 7 - x

which is exactly the same information as y=-x+7

so, there is no single crossing point. they are exactly covering each other. what "remains" is simply the whole line.

A game spinner is divided into 5 congruent sections and labeled, as shown below.
The arrow will be spun 100 times. Which of the following is most likely the number of times the arrow will stop on the section labeled “lose a turn”?

Answers

Answer:

G. 20

Step-by-step explanation:

The spinner has a total of 5 equally sized sections. This means that each possible outcome has an equal probability of 1/5 (0.20 in decimal form) that the spinner lands on it. Therefore, to calculate the number of times that the spinner would most likely land on "lose a turn", we need to multiply the probability that we just mentioned by the number of times the spinner will be spun...

0.20 * 100 = 20 times

Finally, we can see that the spinner will most likely land on "lose a turn" 20 times in 100 spins.

Here are the correct answers :)

Answer:

P(2): 1/4

P(1): 1/4

P(4): 1/8

P(3 or 5): 3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

The areas marked 1, 2, and 3 each take up 1/4 of the box. This means that the probability that you will spin the arrow and land in any of those spaces is 1/4 each.

Areas 4 and 5 are HALF the size of areas 1, 2, and 3. This means that areas 4 and 5 are half of 1/4. Half of 1/4 is 1/8.

The word "or" means that you ADD whatever two probabilities they are asking for. In this case, you add areas 3 and 5. So, add 1/4 + 1/8 = 3/8.

(an easy way to add 1/4 to 1/8 is to change 1/4 to 2/8. Then you can add the two areas easily)
