A calculator was purchased for $29. The wholesale cost was $20. What was the percent markup?

1 answer:

5 0

If you would like to find the percent markup, you can calculate this using the following steps:

x% of $20 is $29
x% * 20 = 29
x/100 * 20 = 29
x = 29 * 100 / 20
x = 145%

145% - 100% = 45%

The correct result would be 45%.

Midpoint (10,4) Endpoint (9,-4), find the coordinates of the other endpoint.

mestny [16]

Answer:

(11, 12)

Step-by-step explanation:

Mid point coordinates:

x = (x₁ + x₂)/2
y = (y₁ + y₂)/2

Since midpoint and one endpoint given (10, 4) and (9, -4), the other endpoint:

x₂ = 2x - x₁ = 2*10 - 9 = 11
y₂ = 2y - y₁ = 2*4 - (-4) = 12

So the other endpoint is: (11, 12)

18. what Gives the missing value in 2/5 = x/30?

Korolek [52]

X is equal to 12
This is because 5 was multiplied and 6 making 30. So you have to multiply 2 and 6 making x 12. Hope that makes sense
