Step-by-step explanation:
the original retail price was 120% of the manufacturer price (100% manufacturer price + 20% markup).
now, the whole retail price is reduced by 12%.
that means we have to subtract 12% from the 120%.
but careful, we cannot just do 120-12=108.
that is simply because these 120% are now for this calculation the new basic amount and therefore 100%.
we actually need to calculate and subtract 12% of 120 to get the new percentage over the manufacturer price.
we do this by multiplying 120 by (100-12)/100 = 88/100 = 0.88 :
120 × 0.88 = 105.6%
so, the new retail price is now only 5.6% over the manufacturer price.
squaring something multiplies it by itself. -4^2 = -4*-4 = 16
Answer:
ax^3+3x^2-bx-6/x^2+3x+2 ( Please specify the equation if I'm wrong)
Step-by-step explanation:
ax^3+3x^2-x^2-bx-3x-6-2
=ax^3+2x^2-x(b+3)-8
<span>(2*8−12)+(12*8*2−10)(2*8 -12)+(12*8*2 -10) = 914
ANSWER = 914

Answer:
d=-8
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Use the Distributive property on the left side of the equation:
3d-24-5=9(d+2)+1
2) Use the Distributive property on the right side of the equation:
3d-24-5=9d+18+1
3) Combine alike terms:
3d-29=9d+19
4) add a 29 to both sides:
3d=9d+48
5) Subtract a 9d from both sides:
-6d=48
6) Divide both sides by -6:
d=-8
