50,000 / 2500 = 20....he bought them for 20 bucks a piece. So if he wants to sell them at 15% profit, he would sell them for 20 + 0.15(20) = $ 23 bucks.
A 15% profit of 50,000 dollars is 0.15(50,000) = 7500. Plus the 50 grand spent totals 57500. So they want to make a $ 7500 profit. Selling 2500 lamps at $ 23 per lamp (2500 x 23 = 57500) makes them their profit.
I should just shut up now...answer is $ 23 per lamp
16 n^2 -10n + 129 = 8n^2 -8
We collect the terms:
8n^2 -10n + 137 = 0
The steps for completing the square:
1) Move the "non X" (or "non N") term to the right:
8n^2 -10n = -137
<span>2)<span> Divide the equation by the coefficient of N² which in this case is 8
n^2 -1.2n = </span></span><span><span>-17.125
</span>
3) Take the coefficient of "N"; divide it by 2; square it; add it to both sides of the equation.
-1.2 / 2 = -.6
-.6^2 = .36
</span>
n^2 -1.2n +.36 = <span>-17.125
+.36
Take the square root of both sides:</span>
(n-.6)*(n-.6) = sq root(

That's about as far as I can go.
Answer:
The square root of 600 is 24.49489743
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y = 2x+1 (slope-intercept form)
Step-by-step explanation:
From line B, y = 2x -2 and comparing with the general equation of line, y = mx +c, we have
m1 = 2
Parallelism rule states that m1=m2
Therefore, m2 = 2
Hence, the equation passing through point A(1,3) is
y-y1 = m2(x-X1)
y - 3 = 2(x-1)
y-3 = 2x-2
y = 2x-2+3
y = 2x+1 (slope-intercept form)
