What is the cost price if the selling price is $98 and the profit is 40%

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: 98-40=58

98+40%=134.7

98-40%=58.8

so theres a slight difference then just 90-40 
Answer 2
Answer:

$98 - 40% = $58.80

because 40% of $98 is $39.20

after a 30% reduction, you purchase a dictionary for $30.80 what was the dictionary price before the reduction

Answers

The dictionary price before the reduction is $44

How to determine the dictionary price before the reduction

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

Reduction = 30%

Price after = $30.80

Using the above as a guide, we have the following:

Price after =  Price before * (1 - Reduction)

substitute the known values in the above equation, so, we have the following representation

Price before * (1 - 30%) = 30.80

Evaluate

Price before = 44

Hence, the dictionary price before the reduction is $44

Answer:

Well the original price would be $44

Step-by-step explanation:

So make an equation

Lets make X stand for the price before the deduction

so x-x(0.3)=30.80

Subtracting the X by x(0.3) would tell us the price, the 0.3 stands for 30 percent and we know its 30 percent of X so we subtract that since 0.3x would give the change

Now just solve the equation

You’ll get 44.

You are at a stall at a fair where you have to throw a ball at a target. There are two versions of the game. In the firstversion, you are given three attempts, and you estimate that your probability of success on any given throw is 0.1.
In the second version, you are given five attempts, but the target is smaller, and you estimate that your probability of
success on any given throw is 0.05. The prizes for the two versions of the game are the same, and you are willing to
assume that the outcomes of your throws are independent. Which version of the game should you choose? (Hint: In
the first version of the game, the probability that you do not get the prize is the probability that you fail on all three
attempts.)

Answers

Answer:

P(X=0)=(3C0)(0.1)^0 (1-0.1)^(3-0)=0.729

And the probability of loss with the first wersion is 0.729

P(Y=0)=(5C0)(0.05)^0 (1-0.05)^(5-0)=0.774

And the probability of loss with the first wersion is 0.774

As we can see the best alternative is the first version since the probability of loss is lower than the probability of loss on version 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

Solution to the problem

Alternative 1

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:

X \sim Binom(n=3, p=0.1)

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^(n-x)

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

nCx=(n!)/((n-x)! x!)

We can find the probability of loss like this P(X=0) and if we find this probability we got this:

P(X=0)=(3C0)(0.1)^0 (1-0.1)^(3-0)=0.729

And the probability of loss with the first wersion is 0.729

Alternative 2

Let Y the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:

Y \sim Binom(n=5, p=0.05)

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

P(Y)=(nCy)(p)^y (1-p)^(n-y)

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

nCy=(n!)/((n-y)! y!)

We can find the probability of loss like this P(Y=0) and if we find this probability we got this:

P(Y=0)=(5C0)(0.05)^0 (1-0.05)^(5-0)=0.774

And the probability of loss with the first wersion is 0.774

As we can see the best alternative is the first version since the probability of loss is lower than the probability of loss on version 2.

Jeremy opens a chocolate shop in the city. He pays $1,500 a month for rent and maintenance of the shop. The price of raw materials and manufacturing the chocolates is $6,000 a month. He sells the chocolates individually and in boxes of a dozen. Jeremy understands that his business needs a little time to become a success and decides that he wants to build a customer base initially. He is happy to break even for the first year. If Jeremy sells 2,400 individual chocolates and 50 boxes a month, how should he price his chocolates to break even, given the costs? (Assume that the price of a box is the same as the price of 12 individual chocolates.)

Answers

Amount of money paid by Jeremy as rent and maintenance of shop per month = $1500
Cost of raw materials and manufacturing per month = $6000
Total cost that Jeremy has to spend per month = (1500 + 6000) dollars
                                                                            = 7500 dollars
Number of individual chocolates sold = 2400
Number of chocolates sold in boxes = 50 boxes
                                                           = (12 * 50) chocolates
                                                           = 600 chocolates
Then
Total number of chocolates sold by Jeremy = 2400 + 600
                                                                       = 3000
Now
Price of each chocolate = 7500/3000 dollars
                                       = 75/30 dollars
                                       = 5/2 dollars
                                       = 2.5 dollars
Price of 600 chocolates = 600 * (5/2) dollars
                                       = 300 * 5 dollars
                                       = 1500 dollars
Price of 12 chocolates = (1500/600) * 12
                                     = 15 * 2
                                     = 30 dollars
Then
We can say that each box of chocolate should be sold at $30. All the loose chocolates should be sold at $2.5 each.
