A merchant buys a television for $125 and sells it for a retail price of $200. What is the markup

1 answer:

5 0

The markup is the percent of the original price that it is increased by. To determine the percentage marked up, you will subtract the new price and the original price, and then divide that by the original price.

200-125=$75

75/200=0.375 or 37.5% markup.

Pete has 3 dollars less than what Linda has. If together has 81 dollars how much does each person have?

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

Pete: 39, Linda: 42

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose Pete has x dollars. If he has 3 dollars less than Linda, then Linda has 3+x dollars. Together, they have 81 dollars:

x+3+x=81

2x+3=81

2x=78

x=39

Since Pete has x dollars, and x=39, he has $39.

Linda has 3+x, which is 39+3 = $42

I hope this helps! :)

In one town 44% of all voters are Democrats if two voters are randomly selected for a survey find the probability that they are

kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

0.194

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability that BOTH are democrats means probability of "one being democrat" AND "another also being democrat".

The AND means we need to MULTIPLY the individual probability of a person being democrat.

Probability that a voter is democrat is 44% (0.44) -- stated in the problem

Now, Probability BOTH being Democrats is simply MULTIPLYING 0.44 with 0.44

$0.44*0.44=0.1936$

Rounded to nearest thousandth, 0.194

Last answer choice is correct.
