Answer:
old selling price = $170
new selling price = $159.12

Explanation:
Part (a) getting old selling price:
The equation to get the selling price is given as follows:
selling price = original cost + markup value

We are given that:
original cost = $136
markup value = 25% = 25% * 136 = 0.25 * 136 = $34

Substitute in the equation to get the old selling price as follows:
old selling price = 136 + 34 = $170

Part (b): getting the new selling price:
The equation to get the selling price is given as follows:
selling price = original cost + markup value

We are given that:
original cost = $136
markup value = 17% = 17% * 136 = 0.17 * 136 = $23.12

Substitute in the equation to get the old selling price as follows:
old selling price = 136 + 23.12 = $159.12

Hope this helps :)

Answer:C.  

old price was $170; new price is $159.12

Step-by-step explanation:

If you take 136 and multiply it by 1.25, which includes the 25 percent markup you get $170 for the old price. Then if you take 136 and multiply it by 1.17, which includes the 17 percent markup, you get $159.12. so the answer is; C. old price was $170; new price is $159.12

Please help me answer these 2 questions, worth lots of points
alexgriva [62]
For the first one, to find x, you are going to take that entire side which would equal to 180 and solve. 2x+20+55=180 would then go down to 2x+65=180 once you add the 20 and 55. Then subtract 65 to both sides and divide your final answer 115/2 which is x=57.5. For the second one it’s 4x-2+21=180, then you will subtract 2 from 21 and get 19. After you would subtract 19 by 180 and divide 4 by each side, getting x=40.25 as your final answer.

          =  [ ( 2746.8 ) / \pi  ] degrees.

          =  [ ( 2746.8) / 3.14) ]  degrees  ;
