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...

The number of teams who entered in a 3-on-3 charity basketball tournament can be modeled by function T, where x is the number of

Answer:

<u>Option A:</u>

$R(x)=20x^2+300x+1080$

Explanation:

The revenue, R(x) is the product of the number of teams who entered the tournament, T(x), times the entry fee paid by each team, F(x); then you can write:

$R(x)=T(x)\times F(x)$

Thus you must multiply the two functions (polynomials):

$R(x)=(4x+24)\times (5x+45)$

Use distributive property:

$R(x)=(4x+24)\times (5x+45)=(4x)(5x)+(4x)(45)+(24)(5x)+(24)(45)$

Simplify:

$R(x)=(4x)(5x)+(4x)(45)+(24)(5x)+(24)(45)=20x^2+180x+120x+1080$

Add like terms:

$R(x)=20x^2+180x+120x+1080=20x^2+300x+1080$

20 is 1/5 of 100 so do 20x5=100 and 15x5=75

So there is a 75% chance she will make the goal

Hey!

To divide fractions, you have to keep, change, flip.

Keep 3 1/2(7/2)

Change ÷ to ×

Flip 2 1/4(9/4) = 4/9

Now multiply the improper fractions

$\frac{7}{2} \times \frac{4}{9} = \frac{28}{18} = 1 \frac{10}{18} = 1 \frac{5}{9}$

<em>The 1st choice matches the answer. The answer is the 1st choice.</em>

Good luck and hope this helps! :)
