Of course you need to know what "gross margin percentage" means. Roughly speaking it is the profit as a percentage of sale price. When a unit costs $1.00 and is sold at $2.50 the excess revenue is $1.50 Although we could express this profit margin as a FRACTION of the sale price, (so this would be 1.50/2.5 = 3/5), it is usual to state this as a PERCENTAGE. The gross margin percentage in the original case would be 100 * 3/5 = 60% Let cost price be c, sale price be s. Gross margin percentage g = 100* (s - c)/s Solving this for sale price s s = c/[1 - (g/100)] When unit cost increases $0.25 we have c = 1.25 so s = 1.25[1 - 0.6] = 1.25/0.4 = 3.1 Action needed to maintain the gross margin percentage is to increase selling price to $3.10

Would i solve this doing 14+5 or 14-5 to get the missing length?
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 10 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We can observe that all the sides have a length but the first to the left.

Also, we know the corners meet at right triangles, so to calculate the length of the missing side, we must add to sides.

But these sides must be the ones that are in front of it (6 ft and 4 ft)

Then    ? = 6 + 4

               10 ft
