So he has to sell it at 19.5+2=21.5 dollars

so assume19.5=100%
the markup is 2 dollars
2=x%
find x if 19.5=100%

so since they are proportionite
19.5:100 and 2:x
if we make them fractions and flip one of them then multiply we will get 1 since
2/4=1/2
2/4 times 2/1=4/4=1 so

19.5/100 times x/2=19.5x/200=1
19.5x/200=1
multiply both sides by 200
19.5x=200
divide both sdies by 19.5
x=10.256 aprox
x=10.3% markup

1) The lengths of the other 2 sides are 51 feet.

Isosceles triangles have at least 2 equal sides. The base is 60 feet, so we can assume that the other 2 sides are equal

162 = 60 + 2x

x = the equal sides of the triangle.

162 - 60 = 102

102 = 2x

Divided by 2

51 = x

51 + 51 = 102. 102 + 60 = 162

2)

Pool 1: 311.38ft.

8*19.4 = 155.2

8 * 5.7 * 2 = 91.2

5.7 * 5.7 = 32.49/2 (because its a triangle) = 16.254*4 = 64.98

155.2 + 91.2 + 64.98 = 311.39

Pool 2: Either 863.94ft or 484 + 121πft

22 * 22 = 484

22/2 = 11, So, the radius of the half circle is 11

Circle area = (pi)r^2

11*11 = 121

pi * 121 = 121pi

Using 3.14 substitute: 3.14 * 121 = 379.94

379.94 + 484 = 863.94

Pool 3: 207ft

Rhombus area = pq/2

18 * 12 = 216

216/2 = 108

11 * 18 = 198/2 = 99

99 + 108 = 207

McKenna and Lara work for their uncle Eddie who repairs skateboards and bicycles. Uncle Eddie is leaving for a vacation to the A
natali 33 [55]

Let x be a number of skateboards and y be the number of bicycles in Eddie's repair shop.

Eddie asks the girls to order 54 new wheels for 21 skateboards and bicycles, then

x+y=21.

One scateboard has 4 wheels, then x scateboards have 4x wheels, one bicycle has 2 wheels, then y bicycles have 2y wheels. In total there should be ordered 54 wheels, so

4x+2y=54.

Solve the system of equations:

\left\{\begin{array}{l}x+y=21\\4x+2y=54.\end{array}\right.

From the first equation x=21-y. Substitute it into the second equation:

4(21-y)+2y=54,\\ \\84-4y+2y=54,\\ \\-2y=54-84,\\ \\-2y=-30,\\ \\2y=30,\\ \\y=15.

Then

x=21-15=6.

Answer: 6 scateboards and 15 bicycles.
