Question
A shopkeeper marks a product at 20% above the cost
price. He then offers a discount of 15% on the marked price. If he still makes a profit of ₹200, what was the cost price of the product?Solution
ATQ, Let the cost price be x. Marked price = x + 20% of x = 1.2x Selling price after discount = 1.2x * (1 - 15/100) = 0.85 * 1.2x = 1.02x Profit = Selling price - Cost price = 1.02x - x = 0.02x Given, 0.02x = 200 Solving for x, we get x = 10,000
if 2x +3y =7 and 2x+2 -3y+2 =7, then find the value of x and y.
Given that (3a + 7b = 54) and (ab = 24), determine the value of (9a2 + 49b2).
If (x2 + y2 + z2 - 4x + 6y + 13) = 0, then find the value of (x + y + z).
A number is increased by 20%, and the resulting number is decreased by 20%. If the initial number is ₹x, the final number is ₹2880. What is the valu...
- If x² - 2x + 1 = 0, then find the value of (x² + x⁻²)(x³ + x⁻³).
If x + y + z = 20, x² + Y² + z² = 160 and x z = y², then find the value of x z?
If x + y = 12 and x² + y² = 74, find xy.
- If [5a - (1/2a)] = 7, then find the value of [25a² + (1/4a²) - 3]
If (x – 1/x) = 3, find (x³ – 1/x³).
