I think it best to actually do the problem to determine the correct answer.

Clearing out the fractions, I found that

x(x-2) - (x -1) = 2x -5. This results in x=2 and x=3.

However, 2 is not a solution (but is an extraneous solution), because substituting 2 for x in the 2nd term results in div. by zero.

Thus, only the second answer is correct.

Fantasy n fun sells gaming cards for 9.99 but they pay only 6.75 per card. What is the original percent markup

lozanna [386]

Answer:

48%

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Selling price of the gaming card = 9.99

Amount paid for the card i.e purchasing cost = 6.75

Now,

The markup percentage is calculated as:

Markup = $\frac{\textup{Selling cost - Purchasing cost}}{\textup{Purchasing cost}}\times100\%$

Markup = $\frac{\textup{9.99 - 6.75}}{\textup{6.75}}\times100\%$

Markup = $\frac{\textup{3.24}}{\textup{6.75}}\times100\%$

Markup = 0.48 × 100% = 48%

Answer:

5.89 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

Arc length :

L = θ/ 360° * 2πr

Diameter = 15 ; Radius, r = 15 / 2 = 7.5

θ = 45°

L = (45/360) * 2*3.14 * 7.5

L = 0.125 * 2 * 3.14 * 7.5

L = 5.89 feets
