Answer: 5%

Step-by-step explanation:

A grocer bought 20 kg of sugar at Rs 70 per kg. The total amount spent will be: = 20kg × Rs70 = Rs1400

He sold 15 kg of sugar at Rs 75

per kg and the remaining quantity at Rs 69 per kg. This will be:

= (15 × Rs75) + (5 × Rs69)

= Rs1125 + Rs345

= Rs1470

Gain = Rs1470 - Rs1400 = Rs70

Percent gain = Gain/cost price × 100

= 70/1400 × 100

= 1/20 × 100

= 5%

The profit percent is 5%

Suppose flaws (cracks, chips, specks, etc.) occur on the surface of glass with density of 3 per square meter. What is the probab

DiKsa [7]

Answer:

0.047

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that poisson distribution with mean m, for 0.5 square meter =1.5

Then the formula for finding the probability =

P[k] = (e^-m * m^k) k!

Hence we have

P[4] =[ (e^-1.5) * (1.5^4)] ÷ 4 * 3 * 2 * 1

= (0.2231301601 * 5.0625) ÷ 24

=( 1.12944375) ÷24

= 0.04706

≈ 0.047

Hence, the final answer is 0.047

Mrs. Ishimitsu is installing a rubber bumper around the edge of her coffee table. The dimensions of the rectangular table are (2

ollegr [7]

Answer:

$2x^2+8x-30$ represents the total perimeter of the table, and if x = 3 the lentgh of entire rubber bumper is 12 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter is defined as the sum of sides.

For a rectangle having dimension length 'L' and breadth 'B' Since, rectangle has two sides equal.

Perimeter of rectangle = 2 ( length + breadth )

Here, given rectangle has dimension

Length = $2x^2-16$ and breadth = $-x^2+4x+1$

Thus, perimeter of rectangle = $2(2x^2-16+(-x^2+4x+1))$

$=2(2x^2-16-x^2+4x+1)$

$=2(x^2+4x-15)$

$=2x^2+8x-30$

Thus, perimeter of rectangle is $2x^2+8x-30$ ........(1)

Perimeter of rectangle , when x = 3,

Put x= 3 in (1) ,

$2x^2+8x-30\Rightarrow 2(3)^2+8(3)-30 \Rightarrow 18+24-30=12$

Thus, $2x^2+8x-30$ represents the total perimeter of the table, and if x = 3 the lentgh of entire rubber bumper is 12 feet.
