Write it as 0.35. Hope it helps.
Answer:
i think its x= 0.75
Step-by-step explanation:
substitute:
8x × 5 = 40x
8x × 10 = 80x
8 × 5 = 40
5 × 10 =50
40x + 80x = 40 + 50
add like terms
so it'd be:
120x = 90
now divide 90 by 120 and that would give you the value of x alone which is 0.75
Since he sold it for $75 more,
% Mark Up = Mark Up/ Cost Price x 100%
% Mark Up = 75 / 125 x 100% = 0.6 x 100% = 60%
Percent Mark Up = 60%
Hope this helps :)
