Answer:

Yes, Bill surpassed his target by £2,200.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost for the laptops totals = 50 x 400

= 20,000

He sold 40 laptops with a profit margin of 30%

Calculating that gives (40 x 400) x 1.30

= 20,800

He sold 10 laptops with a profit of 15%

Calculating that gives (15 x 400) x 1.15

= 6900

Thus, the overall sales revenue totals

= 20800 + 6900 = 27,700

Result:

2.5

Process Description: I just resolved it, and it was correct. Subtracting 250 from 300 gives 50, which when divided by 20 equals 2.5. The division by 20 is necessary to isolate h in the equation 20h.

Which statement correctly names the congruent triangles and justifies the reason for congruence? ΔABC ≅ ΔFDE by HL ΔABC ≅ ΔFED b
zzz [12365]

Answer: The triangles ΔABC and ΔFED are congruent by the SAS criterion

Step-by-step explanation:

Examining the provided diagram,

it is noted that Side AC is equal to Side DF at 3.2

and Side AB matches Side FE at 4 units

with Angle A equal to angle F at 72 degrees

As two sides and the angle between them are equal, triangle FED is congruent to triangle ABC by SAS (side-angle-side)

This allows for the following ratio

AB/FE = AC/DF

The HL specification refers to the hypotenuse leg. This does not apply, as these are not right triangles.

Inessa [12570]
The formula to convert Fahrenheit to Celsius is:

Celsius = (Fahrenheit - 32) x 5/9

C(76.1) = (76.1 - 32) x 5/9
= (44.1) x 5/9
= 24.5

Hence, 76.1°F is equal to 24.5°C.

In 2010, Rafik bought a house. In 2015, Rafik sold the house to Bianca. He made a 20% profit on the sale. In 2019, Bianca sold t
zzz [12365]

Answer:

£170,000

Step-by-step explanation:

En 2010, Rafik adquirió una casa. Supongamos que el precio de compra fue $x. En 2015, Rafik vendió la casa a Bianca obteniendo un 20% de ganancia. Esto se traduce en 20% de x lo que equivale a 0.2 × x = 0.2x. Por tanto, Rafik vendió la casa a Bianca por x + 0.2x = 1.2x. Bianca compró la casa a 1.2x.

La casa fue vendida por Bianca en 2019 con una pérdida del 5%. Esto implica que el 5% de pérdida equivale a 0.05(1.2x) = 0.06x.

Por consiguiente, la venta de la casa por Bianca se realizó a 1.2x - 0.06x = 1.14x. Dado que la casa se vendió por £193,800.

⇒ 1.14x = 193,800

x = 193,800/1.14

x = £170,000

Rafik pagó £170,000 por la casa en 2010.
