- In the case of what percentage of increase would our profit be \latex{ 200 } EUR when selling all the stocks, if calculating with the same percentage of increase in the price of both of the stocks?
{{exercise_number}}. The Smith family pays a flat rate for water consumption, i.e. each month they pay the price of \latex{ 10 } \latex{ m^3 } of water irrespectively of their consumption. They found it expensive, therefore they decided to get a meter set up, which measures the actual consumption, and that they would pay according to this in the future. Setting up the meter cost \latex{ 100 } EUR. Considering the consumption of the first three months they experienced that their consumption was \latex{ 24 } \latex{ m^3 } over this period.
- In how many months does the setting up of the meter return if the price of \latex{ 1 } \latex{ m^3 } of water is \latex{ 7 } EUR?
- At what actual consumption would the cost of the meter return in one year?
{{exercise_number}}. The area on Earth which is needed to satisfy the energy and food demand of one person is called the “ecological footprint”. Today it is resulting \latex{ 1.8 } hectares when calculated with the average. In accordance with it the people, depending in which country and in what circumstances they live, use the earthly possessions to an extent different from the average. The ecological footprint of someone living in Hungary on the average is half as of someone living in Finland, whereas it is seven times as of someone living in Bangladesh. When considering these three countries \latex{ 6/7 } hectares would be resulting as average.
What is the size of the ecological footprint of someone living in Hungary if there are sixteen times as many people in Bangladesh and half as many people in Finland as in Hungary?
{{exercise_number}}. The purity of gold alloy is measured in carats. The carat shows how many twenty-fourth of the alloy is gold. For example if a gold alloy is \latex{ 17 }-carat, then \latex{ 17/24 } of it is gold, and the rest of it are distinct alloying additions. A jeweller would like to create a \latex{ 60-gram } \latex{ 20- }carat necklace, for which he can use \latex{ 17- } and \latex{ 22- }carat gold.
- What amount of gold should he use from each type to create the necklace?
- The jeweller could buy one gram of \latex{ 17- }carat gold for \latex{ 75 } EUR, and buy one gram of \latex{ 22- } carat gold for \latex{ 100 } EUR. For how much should he sell the necklace if he wanted to get \latex{ 25 }% profit?

{{exercise_number}}. A plant producing electric motors experimented with two types of motors, and it was examining how many kilometres the cars can travel with one charge. At the beginning the first motor could cover twice the distance as the second one. Two consecutive changes were implemented on each motor type. As a result the first motor could cover \latex{ 28 } \latex{ km } less each time, while the second one could cover \latex{ 20 }% more each time, and thus finally both of the motors could cover the same distance. What distance could they cover at the beginning?
