THE SEVEN APPLEWOMEN
Seven apple women, possessing respectively 20, 40, 60, 80, 100, 120, and 140
apples, went to market and sold all their apples at the same price, and each
received the same sum of money. What was the price?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

  zero

Step-by-step explanation:

If the same sum is received for the sale of 20 apples at price p as is received for the sale of 140 apples at price p, then we must have ...

  20p = 140p

  120p = 0 . . . . . . subtract 20p

  p = 0 . . . . . . . . . divide by 120

The price was zero.

Answer 2

Answer:

Price was 1 unit of money per each 7 apples and 3 units of money per each extra appleEach woman received 20 unit of money

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the tricky one

I think 'The Seven Apple' is the hint. Let's see what the numbers have to do  with 7:

20 = 7*2 + 640 = 7*5 + 560 = 7*8 + 480 = 7*11 + 3100 = 7*14 + 2120 = 7*17 + 1140 = 7*20 + 0

Assume each '7 apples' sold for a fixed price x and each 'extra' apple sold for a different price y. Since all add up to make same amount, we get:

2x + 6y = 5x + 5y = ... = 20x

Let x = 1, then we get y = 3

So we get the sold price:

20 apples cost: 2*1 + 6*3 = 2040 apples cost: 5*1 + 5*3 = 20...140 apples cost: 20*1 = 20

So each apple woman got 20 units of money for their apples.

Price was 1 unit of money per each 7 and 3 units of money per each extra apple

Answers

Answer:

You will only be able to buy two at the original price the following day.

Step-by-step explanation:

You spend $30.40 on 4 CDs. Each CD costs the same amount and is on sale for 80% of the original price.

If x = original cost of one CD

80% of one CD = 0.8x

0.8x = the price you pay for one discounted CD

You buy 4 of the discounted CDs for $30.40

4(0.8x) = 30.40

solve for x, the original cost of one CD

3.2x = 30.40

x = 9.50

The next day, the CDs are no longer one sale. You have $25. Will you be able to buy 3 more CDs?

25$ / $9.50 = 2.63 CDs

Answers

Answer:

[tex]14y^{2} -64y[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

4y(5y - 11)

Distribute the 4y

4y * 5y = 20y^2

4y * -11 = -44y

Put it together

20y^2 - 44y

2y(3y + 10)

Distribute the -2y

-2y * 3y = -6y^2

-2y * 10 = -20y

Put it gether

-6y^2 - 20y

Put it all together

20y^2 - 44y - 6y^2 - 20y

Combine like terms

14y^2 - 64y

Use the number line below, where RS = 7y +5, ST = 2y + 7, and RT = 14y - 28.
a. What is the value of y?
b. Find RS, ST, and RT.

Answers

Answer:

a. 8

b. 61, 23, 84

Step-by-step explanation:

As we can see, point S is between points R and T, therefore:

RS + ST = RT7y + 5 + 2y + 7 = 14y - 289y + 12 = 14y - 2814y - 9y = 12 + 285y = 40y = 40/5y = 8

------------

RS = 7y+5 = 61ST = 2y + 7= 23RT = 14y - 28 = 84

.A straight line passes through point A(2,4) and B(6,12). Find the equation of the perpendicular bisector of line AB (write your answer in the form ax+by=c)​

Answers

Answer:

x + 2y = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

We require the slope and the midpoint of AB

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]

with (x₁, y₁ ) = A(2, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = B(6, 12)

m = [tex]\frac{12-4}{6-2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{8}{4}[/tex] = 2

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

[tex]m_{perpendicular}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{m}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

-----------------------------------

Given endpoints (x₁, y₁ ) and (x₂, y₂ ) then the midpoint is

[ [tex]\frac{x_{1}+x_{2} }{2}[/tex] , [tex]\frac{y_{1}+y_{2} }{2}[/tex] ]

Thus midpoint of AB = ( [tex]\frac{2+6}{2}[/tex], [tex]\frac{4+12}{2}[/tex] ) = (4, 8 )

--------------------------------------------

y = - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x + c ← partial equation of perpendicular bisector

To find c substitute (4, 8) into the partial equation

8 = - 2 + c ⇒ c = 8 + 2 = 10

y = - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x + 10 ← in slope- intercept form

Multiply through by 2

2y = - x + 20 ( add x to both sides )

x + 2y = 20 ← in the form ax + by = c

ii. Coefficient = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

iii. Constant = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

iv. Factor = [tex]\frac{h}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral which has its base parallel to the opposite side. It's area can be determined by;

Area of trapezium = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] ([tex]b_{1}[/tex] + [tex]b_{2}[/tex])h

Where [tex]b_{1}[/tex] is the measure of length of its fist base,  [tex]b_{2}[/tex] is the measure of its second base and h is its height.

Considering the given question,

Term = [tex]\frac{b_{1}h }{2}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{b_{2}h }{2}[/tex]

Coefficient = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Constant = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Factor = [tex]\frac{h}{2}[/tex]

Hari borrowed Rs. 126000 from a money-lender at 15% per annum simple interest,
After 3 years, he paid Rs. 70700 and gave a buffalo to clear off the debt. What is the
cost of the buffalo?​

Answers

Answer:

Rs. 112000

Step-by-step explanation:

Borrowed money = Rs. 126000Interest rate = 15% PA simpleTime = 3 years

Hari is due to pay after 3 years:

126000* (1+ 3*15/100) = 182700

He pays Rs. 70700, remaining money is cleared by giving buffalo.

Cost of buffalo:

182700 - 70700= Rs. 112000

Answer is: Rs. 112000

Answer:

Solution,

principal(P)= Rs. 126000

Rate(R)=15%

Time(T)=3 years

Money paid=Rs.70700

Cost of buffalo=?

We know that,

                          Interest=P*T*R

                                           100

                                       = Rs. 126000*3*15

                                                         100

                                       = Rs. 56700

Now,

         Amount(A)=P+I

                           =Rs. ( 56700+126000)

                           = Rs.182700

Again,

          by the question,

                                    Cost of buffalo= Amount- Money paid

                                                             = Rs.(182700- 70700)

                                                              = Rs. 112000

Therefore, the cost of buffalo is Rs. 112000.

A manufacturer drills a hole through the center of a metal sphere of radius R = 8. The hole has a radius r. What value of r will produce a ring whose volume is exactly half the volume of the sphere? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

New radius(r) = 3.65 (Approx)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Radius of sphere(R) = 8

Find:

New radius(r)

Computation:

Volume of sphere = (4/3)πR³

Volume of sphere = (4/3)π(6)³

Volume of sphere = 288π

Volume of ring = (4/3)π(R²-r²)³/²

Half volume of sphere = Volume of ring

288π / 2 = (4/3)π(R²-r²)³/²

144 = (4/3)(6²-r²)³/²

108 = (6²-r²)³/²

New radius(r) = 3.65 (Approx)

Subtract 12h+1 from 34h+4 . what is the answer? a.−1/4h+5 b.1/4h+5 c.−1/4h d.1/4h+3

Answers

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

We would like to solve:

(3/4h + 4) - (1/2h + 1)

This is equivalent to:

3/4h + 4 - 1/2h - 1

First, combine like terms; that is, combine the terms with h in them and combine the terms without h in them:

3/4h - 1/2h + 4 - 1

The common denominator for 3/4 and 1/2 is 4, so:

3/4h - 1/2h = 3/4h - 2/4h = 1/4h

Put this back in:

1/4h + 4 - 1

1/4h + 3

The answer is thus D.
