In an ice cream shop there is some money in a drawer. After 6 ice creams were sold, there were 70 euros left in the drawer. After a total of 16 ice creams were sold, there were 120 euros left in the drawer. How many euros were there in the drawer at the start?

There were 40 euros in the drawer at the beginning.

Step-by-step explanation:

When we subtract 6 from 16, we get 10 more ice-creams were sold.

Similarly, we subtract 70 from 120, we get 50 euros was the total selling price of 10 ice-creams.

i.e. Selling price of 1 ice-cream = (50)÷10 =5 euros

Selling price of 6 ice-creams = 6 x 5 = 30 euros

Money in the drawer at the beginning = 70-30 = 40 euros

Hence, there were 40 euros in the drawer at the beginning.

answer:  

step-by-step explanation:

here x represents the height of the pole,

and, the height of the shadow of the pole is 12 feet.

also, the angle of elevation from the top of the pole is 40°,

therefore,

by the low of sine,

which is the required equation for finding the value of x,

78.59 is the mean
