1) According to that table we can write:

40-------100

x-------95

100x = 40*95

x= 38

2) So filling in we have:

Cross multiplying it we can find that 38 is 95% of 40.

Find the rational number whose decimal expansion is 0.3344444

Eddi Din [679]

Answer: The fraction 301/900
Note: I'm assuming the 4's continue on forever

==============================================

Work Shown:

I'm going to assume that the 4s go on forever. I'll represent this with three dots after the last 4 like so
0.334444...

Now let x = 0.334444...

Multiply both sides by 100
x = 0.334444...
100x = 100*(0.334444...)
100x = 33.444444...

And repeat with 1000
x = 0.334444...
1000x = 1000*(0.334444...)
1000x = 334.444444...

Then subtract and solve for x. Notice how the decimal parts line up and cancel
1000x-100x = (334.444444...) - (33.444444...)
1000x-100x = (334+0.444444...) - (33+0.444444...)
1000x-100x = 334+0.444444... - 33 - 0.444444...
1000x-100x = (334-33)+(0.444444... - 0.444444...)
900x = 334 - 33
900x = 301
x = 301/900

A store manager paid $95 for an item and set the selling price at $116.85. What was the percent markup?

Neporo4naja [7]

We have been given that a store manager paid $95 for an item and set the selling price at $116.85. We are asked to find the percent mark-up.

We will use percent increase formula to solve our given problem.

$\text{Percent increase}=\frac{\text{Final}-\text{Initial}}{\text{Initial}}\times 100\%$

$\text{Percent increase}=\frac{\$116.85-\$95}{\$95}\times 100\%$

$\text{Percent increase}=\frac{\$21.85}{\$95}\times 100\%$

$\text{Percent increase}=0.23\times 100\%$

$\text{Percent increase}=23\%$

Therefore, the mark-up will be 23% and option 'b' is the correct choice.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

It is going from top left to bottom right, so we now it is a negative slope. This leaves us with B or D. When the y axis decreases 1 (aka (x,-1)) the x axis is at 4. Rise/run is 1/4.
