Hello! So, the toy company makes blocks that cost $5 to make. Then, they mark it up by 300%, which is marking the price up by 4. 100% markup is doubling the price, 200% is tripling the price, and 300% marks the price up by 4. Then, the blocks would cost $20. After that, the price would be marked up by 150%, so that’s 2.5 times the price of the original. When you do $20 by 2.5, then the blocks cost $50. The local toy store will mark the block up by 200%, which as said before, is tripling the price. Then, you do 50 * 3, and then the price of the blocks is $150. Then, it gets marked off by 30% and 10% of 150 is 15, so 30% off 150 is 45. When you do 150 - 45, the difference is $105. Then, you take off an additional 15%, But you would still have to pay 85% of the original price. You would do 105 * 0.85, and then you would get $89.25 for the blocks. But that’s not all. You have to pay 8% sales tax for the blocks. You can find the tax by doing 89.25 * 0.08 and then adding the prices together. Or, you can do 89.25 * 1.08 to find the total price. Either way, the product should be 96.39. The total price you paid for the blocks is $96.39.
x = # of ham sandwiches
14-x = # of turkey sandwiches ( as Lexi made 14 sandwiches)
as the question said that the number of ha sandwiches are 4 less than twice number of turkey sandwiches,
x = 2 * (14-x) - 4 = 24 - 2x
3x=24
x = 8
the number of ham sandwiches is 8, and the number of turkey sandwiches is 14-8=6
$167.... That an expensive tickets
The left side was cut out but x will be on top and 5 in the lower square. The last one is the answer.
