If you want to find the solutions for this you have to factor it. Since it's a second degree polynomial, you'll have 2 solutions. Factoring this using the quadratic formula, you'll get factors of (5x-8)(3x-4). Solving these for x you get x = 8/5 and x = 4/3.

Step-by-step explanation:
5 + b ÷ (11 - 9)
Substitute b = 14
5 + 14 ÷ (11 - 9)
Work the order of operations from left to right
Since there are no exponents, parentheses first
5 + 14 ÷ (11 - 9)
5+14 ÷ 2
Then division
5+7
Then addition
12
Lets say the final price of the bike is SP plus 13% VAT. So:
1.13 * SP = 6356.25
SP = 5625
Now SP was after 10% discount on Original Price, say MP. So:
0.9 * MP = 5625
MP = 6250
Therefore, the percent of Marked Price above Cost Price is:
(6250 - 5000) * 100/5000 = 25%
