What you do is first you add 6x to both sides and then you problem becomes
11x - 8 = - 10
then you'll add 8 to both sides and get
11x = - 2
So you divide by 11 on both sides because you divide whatever is on the right side of the x and get
x = -11/2

A pair of shoes cost $22.99 to make, the local store sells them for $36.99. What is the percent markup? (Round to the nearest hu

ASHA 777 [7]

C: 60.9% is the right answer

Step-by-step explanation:

The markup is calculated by using the formula

$Mark\ up=Selling\ price-make\ price$

Given

Make Price = $22.99

Selling Price = $36.99

So the mark up will be:

$Mark\ up=36.99-22.99\\=\$14$

Percent mark up will be:

$Mark\ up=\frac{Mark\ up}{Make\ price}*100\\=\frac{14}{22.99}*100\\=0.6089*100\\=60.89\%$

Rounding off to the nearest hundredth percent

60.9%

Hence,

C: 60.9% is the right answer
