A trader sold a radio set for 72.00 making a profit of 8% .Find , correct to the nearest ghana cedis ,the cost price for the radio set .

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

The selling price of a ratio set = 72.00

Profit percent = 8%

To find:

The cost price for the radio set.

Solution:

Let x be the cost price for the radio set.

Radio set is sold at 8% profit.

[tex]\text{Selling price}=x+\dfrac{8}{100}x[/tex]

[tex]\text{Selling price}=x+0.08x[/tex]

[tex]\text{Selling price}=1.08x[/tex]

The selling price of a ratio set is 72.00.

[tex]72=1.08x[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{72}{1.08}=x[/tex]

[tex]x=66.666...[/tex]

[tex]x\approx 67[/tex]

Therefore, the cost price for the radio set is 67.

Which list is in ascending order

To do this, we analyze each of the options 1 after the other.

[tex](a)\ 1.94 * 10 ^{-5},\ \ 1.25 *10 ^{-2},\ \ 6 *10 ^{4},\ \ 8.1 *10^{4}[/tex]

Convert each list item to decimal

[tex]1.94 * 10 ^-5 = 0.0000194[/tex]

[tex]1.25 *10 ^-2 = 0.0125[/tex]

[tex]6 *10^{4} = 60000[/tex]

[tex]8.1 *10^{4} = 81000[/tex]

The list is in ascending order because:

Step-by-step explanation:

A swing hangs from a beam 10 feet high, with the seat hanging 2 feet above the ground. In motion, the swing moves back and forth from -130° to -50° to the horizontal. How far forward and back does the swing move along the ground at the extremes?

Answers

Answer:

11.17 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the swing hangs from a beam 10 feet high with the seat hanging 2 feet above the ground, the swing moves in an arc of radius r = 10 ft - 2 ft = 8 ft.

Now, since the swing moves back and forth from -130° to -50° to the horizontal, the length of arc L it moves in is given by

L = Δθ/360 × 2πr where  Δθ = change in angle of the swing = θ₂ - θ₁ where θ₁ =  -50° and θ₂ = -130°. So, Δθ = θ₂ - θ₁ = -130° -(-50°) = -130° + 50° = -80°.

Substituting r and  Δθ into L, we have

L = -80°/360° × 2π(8 ft)

= -8/36 × 16π ft

=  -32π/9 ft

= -100.53/9 ft

= -11.17 ft

Ignoring the negative sign, the length of arc L = 11.17 ft. So, the swing moves back and forth 11.17 ft

4. The Bulldog Theater charges $9.10 for each adult ticket and $7.75 for each student ticket. Mrs. Williams purchased 7 tickets (some students and some adult) for $56.95. Which system of equations could be used to find a, the number of adult tickets, and s, the number of student tickets purchased?

Answers

Answer:

Two adult tickets and 5 student tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a=adult tickets   Let s=student tickets

You know that each adult ticket is $9.10 and each student ticket cost $7.75. At the end, it cost $56.95 for both students and adults so the first equation should be 9.10a+7.75s=56.95. To get the second equation, you know that Mrs. Williams purchased 7 tickets in total that were both students and adults. Therefore, the second equation should be a+s=7. The two equations are 9.10a+7.75s=56.95

a+s=7.

Now, use substitution to solve this. I will isolate s from this equation so the new equation should be s=-a+7. Plug in this equation to the other equation, it will look like this 9.10a+7.75(-a+7)=56.95. Simplify this to get 9.10a-7.75a+54.25=56.95. Simplify this again and the equation will become 1.35a=2.70. Then divide 1.35 by each side to get a=2. This Mrs. Williams bought two adult tickets. Plug in 2 into a+s=7, it will look like this (2)+s=7. Simplify this and get s=5. This means Mrs. Williams bought five adult tickets. Therefore she bought 2 adult tickets and 5 student tickets.

The value of x is ___, and the value of y is ___.

Answers

Answer:

I think x is 60 and y is 50.

Step-by-step explanation:

70 + 50 = 120

180 - 120 = 60

x = 60

50 + 50 = 100

70 + 60 = 130

130 + 100 = 230

230 - 180 = 50

y = 50

I hope this helps u! :D

Answer:

x=60 y=50

Step-by-step explanation:

180 is equal to the whole triangle so 50+70=120 and 180-120= 60

the other triangle has a missing value by doing the same thing before we can figure out that the missing value is 70. 70+x which is 60 equals 130. A straight line is equal to 180 so 180-130= 50.

The downtown trolly travels around town on a rectangular route stopping at 4 different tourist destinations if the length of the rought was 5.5 miles and the with was 4 miels how far is one complete trip anser

Answers

Answer:

19 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Shape of route is rectangular :

Length of route = 5.5 miles

Width of route = 4 miles

Distance of one complete trip = perimeter of the rectangular route :

Perimeter of a rectangle :

P = 2(length + Width)

P = 2(5.5 + 4)

P = 2(9.5)

P = 19 miles

Hence one complete trip is 19 miles long.

Hello There!

Once again we need to use trigonometry to solve for X

Here are the Trigonometric Ratios:

Sin = Opposite divided by hypotenuse

Cos = adjacent divided by hypotenuse

Tan = Opposite divided by adjacent

We are given the adjacent side of x (45) and the hypotenuse (75) so we need to use cos

Remember cos = adjacent divided by hypotenuse

Now we create an equation

[tex]cos(x)=\frac{45}{75}\\\frac{45}{75} =.6[/tex]

now we have

[tex]cos(x)=.6[/tex]

like always we want to get rid of cos

to do so we take the inverse of cos (arccos^-1) and apply that to each side

[tex]arccos^-^1(cos(x))=x\\arccos^-^1(.6)=53.13010235[/tex]

finally we round to the nearest degree

we're left with x = 53
