Your typical markup for merchandise is 40%. your cost on an item is $8.00. calculate the selling price.

1 answer:

6 0

The selling price would be $11.20.

40% = 40/100 = 0.4

The mark up is 40% of the cost; this means 40% of 8:

40% of 8 = 0.4(8) = 3.20
8 + 3.20 = 11.20

The median for the given set of six ordered values is 28.5

Alika [10]

X=the missing value

the median is the middle number, but in this case there are two which happens to be 25 and x
so the formula is

25+x/2=31.5
use algebra to solve
25+x=63
x=63-25
x= 38

Therefore, the missing value is 38.

Hope this helped. Let me know if you have any further questions:)

The circles are identical. What is the circumference of each circle? Circle 1: radius of 2x; Circle 2: diameter of 2x+3. A. 3/2

Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

C=6π

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that, two circles are identical. The radius of first circle is 2x and the diameter of other circle is 2x+3.

If identical, it means that the radius of both circles are same i.e.

$2x=\dfrac{2x+3}{2}\ \ (\because\ r=\dfrac{D}{2}, d=\text{diameter})\\\\4x=2x+3\\\\2x=3\\\\x=1.5$

Radius of both circles is 2(1.5)=3

The circumference of a circle is given by :

$C=2\pi r\\\\C=2\pi (3)\\\\C=6\pi$

So, the circumference of each circle is 6π.

Higher Order Thinking Lemmy walked 3 1/2 miles on Saturday and miles 4 3/4 on Sunday. Ronnie walked 5 3/8 miles on Saturday. Who

julsineya [31]

Answer:

Lemmy ; 2 7/8 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Distance walked by Lemmy:

Saturday = 3 1/2 miles

Sunday = 4 3/4 miles

Total distance walked by Lemmy:

3 1/2 + 4 3/4

7/2 + 19/4

(14 + 19) / 4

33 / 4

= 8 1/4

Miles walked by Ronnie : 5 3/8

Lemmy walked farther because : 8 1/4 > 5 3/8

Number of distance walked farther than Ronnie :

8 1/4 - 5 3/8

33/4 - 43/8

(66 - 43) / 8

= 23/ 8

= 2 7/8 miles

You are applying fertilizer to a football field. The field is 360 feet long and 160 feet wide. You use 8 pounds of fertilizer pe

Assoli18 [71]

Answer: 10 bags

Step-by-step explanation:

First we must calculate the field area. Assuming it is a rectangle then its area equals the product of its length times its width

$A =360*160\\\\A = 57600 ft^2$

You use 8 pounds of fertilizer per 1,000 square feet

So the amount of fertilizer you should use is:

$57,600 ft^2 * \frac{8\ pounds}{1,000\ ft^2} = 460.8\ pounds$

As the fertilizer comes in bags of 50 pound then you need

$460.8\ pounds * \frac{1\ bag}{50\ pounds} = 9.2\ bags$

Since you can not buy 9.2 bags then we round up to the next whole number.

Finally you need 10 bags of fertilizer
