We know that:

The markup is the price added to the cost price of goods...

To find the markup, we must multiply the percent increase by the original price (before markup).

So:

10,000 x 5% (or 0.05) = ?

10,000 (You do not have to follow my way of multiplying, do what is comfortable for u)
x 5 (Ignore the decimals then we move it after we get the answer)
----------
50,000 move the decimal back 2 places so it is 500

The final answer is:

The markup amount is $500...

Answer:

(a) Find out the a rule to describe the function.

To prove

Let us assume that the days be represted by d .

Let us assume that the height of plant be represted by y.

As given

A zucchini plant in Darnell’s garden was 12 centimeters tall when it was first planted.

it has grown approximately 0.5 centimeter per day.

Than the function becomes

y = 12 + 0.5 × d

y = 12 + 0.5d

(b) Find out after how many days will the zucchini plant be 0.195 meter tall .

To prove

Let us assume that the days be represted by d .

As given

A zucchini plant in Darnell’s garden was 12 centimeters tall when it was first planted.

it has grown approximately 0.5 centimeter per day.

As

1meter = 100cm

0.195 meter convert into centimeter.

= 19.5cm

Than the equation becomes

12 + 0.5d = 19.5

0.5d = -12 + 19.5

0.5d = 7.5

d = 7.5/10

d = 15 days

Therefore 15 days will the zucchini plant be 0.195 meter tall .

Solve the equation, if possible. (If all real numbers are solutions, enter REALS. If there is no solution, enter NO SOLUTION.)

Masteriza [31]

Answer:

The equation $x\left(x\:+\:6\right)\:=\:\left(x\:+\:3\right)^2$ has NO SOLUTION, and is called contradiction.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation

$x\left(x\:+\:6\right)\:=\:\left(x\:+\:3\right)^2$

$\mathrm{Expand\:}x\left(x+6\right):\quad x^2+6x$

$\mathrm{Expand\:}\left(x+3\right)^2:\quad x^2+6x+9$

so

$x^2+6x=x^2+6x+9$

$\mathrm{Subtract\:}x^2+6x\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}$

$x^2+6x-\left(x^2+6x\right)=x^2+6x+9-\left(x^2+6x\right)$

$\mathrm{Simplify}$

$0=9$

$\mathrm{The\:sides\:are\:not\:equal}$

Thus, there is NO SOLUTION.

We know that an equation that has no solution, such as $x = x + 2$ , is called a contradiction.

Therefore, the equation $x\left(x\:+\:6\right)\:=\:\left(x\:+\:3\right)^2$ has NO SOLUTION, and is called contradiction.
