Answer:
a. $20.45
b. $24.55
c. $4.55
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are asked to calculate the cost price and profit or loss selling a pair of shoes.
we proceed as follows
Firstly, we want to find the cost price given the selling price and the mark up percentage.
mathematically;
profit =( selling price - cost price)/cost price * 100%
here our profit is 120% with the cost price being $45. we plug these values
120 = 45-cp/cp * 100%
120cp = 100(45-cp)
120cp = 4500 -100cp
220cp = 4500
cp = 4500/220 = $20.45
His profit is selling price - cost price = 45 - 20.45 = $24.55
His profit selling same shoe for $25 is 25-20.45 = $4.55
Again same here, isolate the y variable to get it in y=mx+b form
6y=2x+15 divide by 6 to isolate the y and your equation is...
y=1/3x+15/6. Or 15/6 can be simplified to 5/2.
Answer:
I agree with both.
Step-by-step explanation:
If it's $3 per dozen that would be $0.25 per muffin because
3 ÷ 12 = 0.25
And if Andre has $2 than he can only afford 8 muffins because
0.25 x 8 = 2
And if Elena wants 16 muffins
16 x 0.25 = 4
So she will have to pay $4.
Hope this makes sense and helps!
Answer: the solution becomes 3=y+1-1
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step is to combine like terms meaning you subtract 1-1. Then you are left with 3=y.
