Answer:

Cost price of each cup = 1500/6 = 250

Selling price of each cup = 1650/5 = 330

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost price of cups = 1500

Profit = 10%

Selling price of cups = ?

Profit and loss percentage are calculated based on cost price and the formula to calculate profit is mentioned as under:

Profit percentage (%) = Profit x 100/Cost price

10 = Profit x 100/1500

⇒ Profit = 10 x 1500/100

⇒ Profit = 150

The formula for finding selling price is mentioned as under:

Selling Price = Profit + Cost Price.

Selling Price = 150 + 1500

⇒ Selling Price = 1650.

Since one of the six cups was broken that means the seller earned profit based on only 5 cups, it implies that selling price of each cup will be 1650/5 = 330.

Sierra is selling bracelets to raise money for the Language Club at school. Each bracelet with yellow beads sells for $5. Each b
matrenka [14]

Answer:

Correct answer is:

5y+6r=660\\y=2r+8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Number of bracelets with yellow beads is represented by y

Each bracelet with yellow beads is sold for $5.

Total money raised by bracelets with yellow beads = Number of bracelets sold \times Money raised by sale of one such bracelet = 5y

Also Given that Number of bracelets with Orange beads is represented by r

Each bracelet with orange beads is sold for $6.

Total money raised by bracelets with orange beads = Number of bracelets sold \times Money raised by sale of one such bracelet = 6r

Given that total money raised by sale of both type of bracelets is $660.

so, the first equation becomes:

5y+6r=660 ....... (1)

It is also given that "<em>The number of bracelets with yellow beads that Sierra sold is 8 more than twice the number of bracelets with orange beads</em>"

\Rightarrow r =2r+8 ...... (2)

So, by equation (1) and (2), the system of equations is:

5y+6r=660\\y=2r+8
