Mark up value is either a fixed amount or a percentage of the total cost or selling price.

In this problem, mark up value is the percentage of the total cost.

To determine the retail price, total cost and mark up must be added.

Selling Price = Total Cost + Mark up value based on Total Cost

However, we are looking for the Total cost. Thus, our formula should be

Total Cost = Selling Price - Mark up value based on Total Cost.

Let X = total cost.
Selling Price = $8,000
Mark up vale = 6% of total cost.

X = $8,000 - 6%X
X = $8,000 - 0.06X

To get X, transfer -0.06X to the other side and change its sign from negative to positive.

X + 0.06X = $8000
1.06X = $8000

To get X, divide both sides by 1.06

1.06X / 1.06 = $8000 / 1.06

X = $7,547.17
total cost.

The problem is looking for the mark up value and since it states that the mark up value is 6% of the total cost, then:

Total Cost  x  6% = Mark up value

$7,547.17 x  0.06 = $452.83 mark up value

To check:

X + 0.06X = $8000

$7547.17 + $452.83 = $8000
$8000 = $8000 equal.

timurjin [86]

Answer:

We know that this triangle is similar because it will have all of the same angles as the first triangle. This is because two parallel lines cut by a transversal will create the same angles. In addition, they share the final angle because we are not changing that angle. Therefore, all 3 are the same, which makes them similar triangles.
