Sarah received \$55$55dollar sign, 55 for her birthday. She used some of that money to buy 333 shirts priced at mmm dollars each

satela [25.4K]

Answer:

$(55-3m) is the amount of money she has left

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to give an expression to represent how much money was left after Sarah had bought some certain stuffs at some prices using the money she received at her birthday.

Firstly, we identify that the total amount of money she has to spend is $55.

Now let’s project her total spendings. She bought 3 shirts with each shirt costing $m.

The total amount spent on the shirts is thus; 3 * $m = $3m

The amount of money she has left is the difference.

Mathematically, this is equal to $55 - $3m

Suppose we want to choose 2 objects, without replacement, from the 5 objects pencil, eraser, desk, chair, and lamp. (a)How many

BigorU [14]

Answer:

a) 20 ways

b) 10 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

When the order of selection/choice matters, we use Permutations to find the number of ways and if the order of selection/choice does not matter, we use Combinations to find the number of ways.

Part a)

We have to chose 2 objects from a group of 5 objects and order of choice matters. This is a problem of permutations, so we have to find 5P2

General formula of permutations of n objects taken r at time is:

$nPr=\frac{n!}{(n-r)!}$

Using the value of n=5 and r=2, we get:

$5P2=\frac{5!}{(5-2)!} =20$

Therefore, we can choose 2 objects from a group of 5 given objects if the order of choice matters.

Part b)

Order of choice does not matter in this case, so we will use combinations to find the number of ways of choosing 2 objects from a group of 5 objects which is represented by 5C2.

The general formula of combinations of n objects taken r at a time is:

$nCr=\frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}$

Using the value of n=5 and r=2, we get:

$5C2=\frac{5!}{2!(5-2)!} =10$

Therefore, we can choose 2 objects from a group of 5 given objects if the order of choice does not matters.

A rice merchant purchased 50 bags of rice at rupees 300 per back he spent 500 rupees towards transportation due to lack of deman

Alex777 [14]

Answer:

10500 rupees

Step-by-step explanation:

So 50 bags 300 per pack so

300*50= 15000

15000 is what he spent on the 50 bags of rice

So he spent 500 rupees on transportation

15000 + 500 = 15500 total spent which is not needed but extra information

30% loss is 30% of 15000 so

30% of 15000 = 4500

15000 - 4500 = 10500 rupees
