Maria's Grocery Store buys grapefruit at a cost

Mathematics
1 answer:
Amanda [17]2 years ago
4 0

Answer: 25 grapefruits

Step-by-step explanation:

They buy grapefruit at a price of 5 per dollar. This means that the price per grapefruit is:

= 1 / 5

= $0.20 per grapefruit.

They then sell at a price of 5 per $3. The selling price per grapefruit is:

= 3 / 5

= $0.60

The profit per grapefruit is:

= 0.60 - 0.20

= $0.40

In order to make a profit of $10, they should sell:

= 10 / 0.4

= 25 grapefruits

Mr Chua borrows a sum of money from the bank which charges a compound interest of 4.2% per annum, compounded 6.Given that Mr Chu
Inessa [10]

Answer:

Original sum of money = $2246.51

Step-by-step explanation:

Interest = $96.60

Interest is compounded 6 times in a year ; n = 6

time = 1 year ; Rate of interest (r) = 4.2%

Interest = Future Value - Principal Value ...........(1)

\text{Future Value = }Principal\cdot (1+\frac{r}{100\times n})^{n\cdot t}\\\\\text{Substituting this value in equation (1) , We get }\\\\Interest=Principal\cdot (1+\frac{r}{100\times n})^{n\cdot t}-Principal\\\\\implies 96.60=Principal[\cdot (1+\frac{4.2}{100\times 6})^{6\cdot 1}-1]\\\\\implies Principal=\$2246.51

Hence, the original sum of money borrowed = $2246.51

Answer:

The correct option is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a figure it dilated by scale factor k, then the image and preimage are similar figures and their corresponding sides are proportional.

In triangle I, the base of the triangle is 1 unit and length of the perpendicular is 1 units.

In triangle II, the base of the triangle is 1 unit and length of the perpendicular is 2 units.

\frac{1}{1}\neq \frac{1}{2}

The corresponding sides are not proportional. It means both triangles are not similar. So, there is no dilation transforming triangle I into triangle II.

Therefore the correct option is 4.

The Ignorance Survey: United Kingdom A survey was conducted in the United Kingdom, where respondents were asked if they had a un
lukranit [14]

Answer:

Here we have given two catogaries as degree holder and non degree holder.

So here we have to test the hypothesis that,

H0 : p1 = p2 Vs H1 : p1 not= p2

where p1 is population proportion of degree holder.

p2 is population proportion of non degree holder.

Assume alpha = level of significance = 5% = 0.05

The test is two tailed.

Here test statistic follows standard normal distribution.

The test statistic is,

Z = (p1^ - p2^) / SE

where SE = sqrt[(p^*q^)/n1 + (p^*q^)/n2]

p1^ = x1/n1

p2^ = x2/n2

p^ = (x1+x2) / (n1+n2)

This we can done in TI_83 calculator.

steps :

STAT --> TESTS --> 6:2-PropZTest --> ENTER --> Input all the values --> select alternative "not= P2" --> ENTER --> Calculate --> ENTER

Test statistic Z = 1.60

P-value = 0.1090

P-value > alpha

Fail to reject H0 or accept H0 at 5% level of significance.

Conclusion : There is not sufficient evidence to say that  the percent of correct answers is significantly different between degree holders and non-degree holders.

A rectangular prism has a volume of 170 cubic centimeters. The length of the prism is 5 centimeters, and the height of the prism
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

The width of the prism is 2 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The volume of the prism = 170 cm³

The length of the prism = 5 cm

The height of the prism = 17 cm

The volume of the prism is given by the  relationship v = Length, l × Height, h × Width, w

Therefore;

The volume of the prism = 5 cm × 17 cm × w = 170 cm³

Which gives;

w = 170 cm³/(5 cm × 17 cm) = 170 cm³/(85 cm) = 2 cm

∴ The width of the prism = 2 cm.
