Answer:

Weight on the moon=x=15.87 kilograms

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be expressed as;

Weight on earth=Constant×Weight on moon

where;

Weight on moon=14.2 kilograms

Constant=k

Weight on Earth=85 kilograms

Replacing in the expression above;

85=14.2×k

k=(85/14.2)=5.986

If the person weighs 95 kilograms on Earth;

Weight on the earth=Constant×Weight on moon

where;

Weight on the moon=x

Constant=5.986

Weight on the earth=95 kilograms

Replacing;

95=5.986×x

x=95/5.986=15.87

Weight on the moon=x=15.87 kilograms

babunello [35]

The Benz C300 markup should be $15525. The markup price for the new Toyota Highland should be $43470

Step-by-step explanation:

For the used Benz C300

Initial price $12,000

Apply import duty for Nigeria which is 25%, which is similar to increasing the price by 25%

100% +25%=125%

12000*125/100 = $15000

Apply the 15% profit

100%+15%=115%

15000*115/100 =$17250

Apply the 10% discount, reducing the price by 10%

100%-10%=90%

17250*90/100 =$15525

The Benz C300 markup should be $15525

For the Toyota Highlander

Initial price = $30,000

Apply import duty for Nigeria for new cars, which is 40%, which is similar to increasing the car price by 40%

100%+40%=140%

30,000*140/100 =$42000

Apply the 15% profit

15%+100%=115%

115/100*42000 =$48300

Apply the 10% discount

100%-10%=90%

48300*90/100=$43470

The markup price for the new Toyota Highland should be $43470
