After the 10% discount on marked price (P), the selling price is ...
... P×(100% -10%) = 0.90P
After a markup off 35% on cost, the value is
... $70×(100% +35%) = 1.35×$70 = $94.50
The retailer wants these two values to be equal:
... 0.90P = $94.50
... P = $94.50/0.90 = $105.00 . . . . . divide by the coefficient of P
The marked price should be $105.00.
Answer:
x=10, y=-5
Step-by-step explanation:
2x+3y=5, y= 5-x; change y to 5-x:
2x+3(5-x)=5
2x-3x+15=5
-x=5-15
-x=-10
x=10
=>y=5-x=5-10=-5
Answer:
If you are looking for an equation, then it would be 25 < x.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The perimeter is 
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The perimeter of the figure is equal to the circumference of a semicircle
plus the perimeter of a square minus the diameter of the circle
so
we have
The diameter of the circle is equal to the length side of the square
substitute
9514 1404 393
Answer:
- x ≤ 4
- x > 10
- x ≤ -7
Step-by-step explanation:
We're guessing you want to solve for x in each case. You do this in basically the same way you would solve an equation.
1. 3x +2 ≤ 14
3x ≤ 12 . . . . . subtract 2
x ≤ 4 . . . . . . . divide by 3
__
2. -5 +2x > 15
2x > 20 . . . . . . add 5
x > 10 . . . . . . . . divide by 2
__
3. -2x +4 ≥ 18
4 ≥ 18 +2x . . . . . add 2x
-14 ≥ 2x . . . . . . . subtract 18
-7 ≥ x . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

<em>Additional comment</em>
The statement above that the same methods for solving apply to both equations and inequalities has an exception. The exception is that some operations reverse the order of numbers, so make the inequality symbol reverse. The usual operations we're concerned with are <em>multiplication and division by a negative number</em>: -2 < -1; 2 > 1, for example. There are other such operations, but they tend to be used more rarely for inequalities.
You will note that we avoided division by -2 in the solution of the third inequality by adding 2x to both sides, effectively giving the variable term a positive coefficient. You will notice that also changes its relation to the inequality symbol, just as if we had left the term where it was and reversed the symbol: -2x ≥ 14 ⇔ -14 ≥ 2x ⇔ x ≤ -7 ⇔ -7 ≥ x
