7x - 1 + 6x - 1 = 180
add the x’s, add the numbers
13x - 2 = 180
add 2 to 180
13x = 182
divide 182 by 13
x = 14
Slope intercept = y=mx+b
m is the slope
b is the y int
point slope =y2-y1=m(x1-x2)
Answer:
180%
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up an equation:
Variable x = percent of markup
102.56/56.98 = x/100
Cross multiply
102.56 × 100 = 56.98 × x
10,256 = 56.98x
Divide both sides by 56.98:
179.99297.... = x
Round to nearest whole number:
180 = x
Check your work:
56.98 × 180%
Convert the percentage into a decimal:
56.98 × 1.80
102.564
Round to nearest cent:
102.56
