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.

Each function below describes how something changes. Use the description to determine which function(s) describe exponential gro
cestrela7 [59]

Answer: E. The population decreased by 11% each year.

Step-by-step explanation: In A, the pollution increases at a constant rate, but in a linear way, in other words in each day, the pollution increases 10 grams; The same goes for C: ice "grows" a few milimeters each day; In D, as volume is calculated by the multiplication of π and its radius, the increase in the volume is still linear. In B, the proportionality is related to the power of the turbine not the growth or decay of it. In E, a population grows or decreases in a form of A=A₀(1±r)^t. In this case: A = A₀ (1-0.11)^t.

In conclusion, the function that better describes an exponential growth or decay is the decrease of a population.

How much water do you add  to make 12% sugar syrup using 5g sugar?
Alchen [17]

so the syrup is just water and sugar, we know that the sugar percent is just 12%, and that happens to be 5grams.

now 100% - 12% is 88%, so the 88% leftover will just be water.

if 12% is 5g, how much is 88%?

\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 5&12\\ x&88 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{5}{x}=\cfrac{12}{88}\implies \cfrac{5}{x}=\cfrac{3}{22}\implies 110=3x \\\\\\ \cfrac{110}{3}=x\implies 36\frac{2}{3}=x

Now let the figure show a scale drawing of a park. The scale is 1 unit : 25 meters. What is the horizontal distance across the p
insens350 [35]

The question is missing the figure. So, the figure is attached below.

Answer:

C. 350 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Scale  is given as:

1 unit  : 25 meters

This means that 1 unit on the grid is equivalent to 25 meters in actual.

Now, from the figure, the horizontal distance across the park is 14 units.

1 unit = 25 meter

Now, we can find the actual distance using unitary method and thus multiplying 25 and 14 to get the actual distance across the park horizontally.

∴ 14 units = 25\times 14=350 meters.

Therefore, the horizontal distance across the park is 350 m in actual.

So, the correct option is option C.
