6. For a particular pickup truck, the percent markup is known to be 115% based on cost to the seller. If the seller paid $15,800
Neko [114]

Answer:

  • <u>53.5 %</u>

Explanation:

You can convert the percent markup into a multiplicative factor in this way:

Base price:                     15,800 . . . (cost to the seller)

Percent mark up:           115% . . .  (based on the cost to the seller)

Sale price:                      15,800 + 115% of x = 15,800 + 115 × 15,800 /100 =

                                        = 15,800 + 1.15 × 15,800 = 15,800 (2.15) = 33,970

The markup is:

  • Markup = price paid by the seller - cost to the seller = 33,970 - 15,800   = 18,170 (notice that this is 115% of 15,800)

And <em>the percent markup based on the sale price is</em>:

  • % = (markup / sale price) × 100 = (18,700 / 33,970) × 100 =

            = 53.49 %

Rounding to the nearest tenth percent that is 53.5 %.

What multiplies to 16 and adds to negative 12
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]
Factor 16 and see the - factor pairs and add them, see which add to -12
-1-16=-17 nope
-2-8=-10 nope
-4-4=-8
hmm


we will solve with math
xy=16
x+y=-12
minus  x both sides
y=-12-x
sub for y in other equation
x(-12-x)=16
-12x-x^2=16
add 12x+x^2 both sides
0=x^2+12x+16
use quadratic formula
if you have
ax^2+bx+c=0
x=\frac{-b+/- \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} }{2a}


0=x^2+12x+16
a=1
b=12
c=16

x=\frac{-12+/- \sqrt{12^{2}-4(1)(16) }}{2(1)}
x=\frac{-12+/- \sqrt{144-64 }}{2}
x=\frac{-12+/- \sqrt{80}}{2}
x=\frac{-12+/- 4\sqrt{5}}{2}
x=\frac{-6+/- 2\sqrt{5}
x=\frac{-6+ 2\sqrt{5} or \frac{-6- 2\sqrt{5}

aprox
x=-1.52786 or -10.4721

those are the numbers

the numbes are -1.52786 or -10.4721
