Hi there! So the the new price is $93, and went up from $55. Let's subtract the numbers. 93 - 55 is 38. The change is 38. To find the percent markup, we can write and solve a proportion. Set it up like this:

38/55 = x/100

This is because the amount of change goes above the original (55), and x represents the percent out of 100. We are looking for the markup. Let's cross multiply the values. 100 * 38 is 3,800. 55 * x is 55x. 3,800 = 55x. Now, divide each side by 55 to isolate the x. 55x/55 cancels out. 3,800/55 is 69.0909 or 69 when rounded to the nearest whole number. There. The percent of markup is approx. 69%.

An analyst has a limit order outstanding on a stock. He argues that the probability that the order will execute before the close

dalvyx [7]

Answer:

b. One in Five

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate probability, we need to know the formula: $\frac{Number of Expected outcomes}{Total Number of possible outcomes}$

in this case the probability is given in its decimal form, which is = 0.20

∴ to be able to use our formula easily, we will need to convert the probability to its fraction form.

which is 0.20 = $\frac{20}{100}$ (<em> to do this, just simply put a 1 under the decimal point and replace the remaining values of 20 with zeroes)</em>

reducing $\frac{20}{100}$ to its simplest form gives $\frac{1}{5}$ .

Hence, relating it to our formula, we can see that the number of possible out comes is = 1

and the total number of outcomes = 5.

This means that the probability that the order will execute before the same of closing is the same as 1 in 5

A 10-feet tree makes an 18 ft shadow. About how tall is a person who makes a 1 feet ft shadow at the same time?

Murljashka [212]

So this is ratios
actual height to shadow height=10 to 18=10:18=10/18=5/9
ratio is 5:9

if the shadow height=12 then find actual height
x:12=5:9 since they should be in the same ratio
x/12=5/9
multiply both sides by 12
x=60/9
x=6 and 6/9
x=6 and 2/3
height of person is 6 and 2/3 foot or 6.66ft or 6ft and 8 inches
