Answer from: Tyrant4life

110.000

Step-by-step explanation:

Selling at a loss of 5% means it was sold for 95% of its purchase value.

If 120.175 equals to 95% then 100%(the purchase value) is 126.500.

120.175/95*100 = 126.500 (plenty of other ways to calculate this, but this is one of the easiest)

So now we change to the dealer's perspective, he sold the car for 126.500 and for him that meant a 15% profit. If the purchase value is 100%, then the sale value is 115% (purchase value+15% profit)

Calculate the purchase value:

126.500/115*100 = 110.000

The dealer bought the car for 110.000, sold it for 126.500, so he made a profit of 16.500 (126.500-110.000) which is a 15% profit (15% of 110.000 is 16.500).

Answer from: Quest

In all honesty, there really is no “work” per say to show. mainly it’s just using the process of elimination. the question is asking which domain(s) would be the most appropriate for the function c(n). n is the number of observed vehicles so right away, 1, 2, and 3 can be eliminated.why? 1, 2 start in the negatives and therefore it is impossible to observe negative cars. so, #4 would be the best answer to the given problem.

Answer from: Quest

the correct option is 2.

step-by-step explanation:

according to the given information triangle abc is a right angle triangle with right angle at a. segment ab is 5 and segment ac is 7. point d is on segment bc and angles adb and adc are right angles.

it is given that triangles abd, cad, and cba are similar.

two triangles are similar if their corresponding sides are proportional.

in triangle cba, using pythagoras theorem

$ab^2+ac^2=bc^2$

$ab^2+ac^2=x^2$ )

triangle abd and cba are similar,

$\frac{ab}{bc}=\frac{bd}{ab}$

$ab^2=bc\cdot bd$

$25=bc\cdot bd$ (2)

triangle cad and cba are similar,

$\frac{ac}{bc}=\frac{cd}{ac}$

$ac^2=bc\cdot dc$

$7\times 7=bc\cdot dc$

$49=bc\cdot dc$ )

using (1), (2) and (3), we get

$25+49=x^2$

$74=x^2$

hence proved.

therefore option 2 is correct.
