Answer:

The price before tax was $110

Step-by-step explanation:

Here the price paid totals $129.25, including b (the pre-tax price) an 17.5% of b:  b + 0.175b = $129.25.  Combining the b terms, we get:

1.175b = $129.25.  Solving for b by dividing both sides by 1.175, we get

b = $110.  The price before tax was $110.

See explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the amount of profit earned in each product,apply the percent profit formula;

%profit= profit/original price *100

<u>a)Candy </u>

% Profit =65%

Selling price = $6400

This means;

165%=6400

100%=?

Cross multiply

(100*6400)/165 =$3878.80

Original price= $3878.80

Profit= $6400-$3878.80

=$2521.20

<u>b)Wrapping Paper</u>

%profit= 40%

Selling price= $1200

This means;

140%=$1200

100%=?

Cross-multiply

(1200*100)/140=$857.14

Original price=$857.14

Profit=$1200-$857.14

=$342.90

<u>c)Stationery</u>

%profit= 50%

Selling price =$900

This means;

150%=900

100%=?

Cross-multiply

(900*100)/150 = $600

Original price = $600

Profit= $900-$600=$300

<u>d)Calender's</u>

%Profit=25%

Selling price=$3120

This means;

125%=$3120

100%=?

Cross-multiply

(100*3120)/125=$2496

Original Price=$2496

Profit= $3120-$2496=$624

2)

Selling price for pens and pencils =$4500

%percent profit earned = 42%

Profit earned will be:

142% = $4500

100%=?

Cross-multiply

(100*4500)/142 =3169.01

Original price=$3169.01

Profit= $4500-$3169.01

=$ 1331
