Hello! So Brittany plans to sell car magnets that she purchased at $7.50 and mark them up by 30%. To find the new price, we can multiply 7.50 * 1.30. When multiplied, it gives us 9.75. Brittany is planning to charge $9.75 for the car magnets.
Hello!
Since D is the midpoint and the two equations are and both sides of point D the equations equal each other
9x - 7 = 3x + 17
Now you solve it algebraically
Add 7 to both sides
9x = 3x + 24
Subtract 3x from both sides
6x = 24
Divide both sides by 6
x = 4
Now we put this into both equations and add them
9(4) - 7 = 29
3(4) + 17 = 29
29 + 29 = 58
The answer is 58 units
Hope this helps!
A 15% percent markup means that the typewriter cost was increased by 15%, or 0.15 by moving the decimal 2 places to the left. If the original price was x, and 15% of it is 0.15*x, we can add them up to get 1.15*x=129.95. Dividing both sides by 1.15, we get x=113 dollars
