Your original price would have been $16.23

Explaination: 

Take the new markup price and divide it by the percent it was marked up

17.85 / 1.10 = 16.227

1.10 represents 110%

Round your ending number cause there are only two place holders after the decimal for calculating prices. By doing this we change $16.227 to $16.23.

The length of a rectangle is 6 centimeters less than twice its width. The perimeter of the rectangle is 48 cm. What are the
fomenos

Answer:

the length is 12 and the width is 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is always to assign letters to the variables.  We can call length L and width W.

Since all units are in cm, unit conversion is unnecessary.

Next, set up some equations.  L=2W-6 because of the first sentence of the problem.  Length times width equals area, so L*W=108.

Now that there are two equations and two variables, the next step is to solve the system.  I'm going to solve it by plugging in the right side of the first equation in for L in the second equation.  This gives me (2W-6)*W=108.  Distributing the W gives me 2W^2-6W=108, or W^2-3W-54=0.  Using the quadratic formula, I get that W=9.  Using the first equation, L=2*9-6=12.  So the length is 12 and the width is 9.

A company's profit (in millions of dollars) can be represented by x^2-6x+12, where x is the number of years since the company st
Sergeu [11.5K]
The function that models the profit of the company in million of dollars is:

P= x^{2} -6x+12

where x represents the number of years since the company started. We want to find when the profit of the company was $4 million. Setting P as 4 in above equation, we can find the value of x when the profit was $4 million.

4= x^{2} -6x+12 \\  \\ 
 x^{2} -6x+8=0 \\  \\ 
 x^{2} -2x-4x+8=0 \\  \\ 
x(x-2)-4(x-2)=0 \\  \\ 
(x-2)(x-4)=0 \\  \\ 
x=2, x=4

Thus, we can conclude that the profit of the company was $4 million in 2nd and 4th year

Help plz ill give extra points
White raven [17]

Answer:

The answer here would be D.

Step-by-step explanation:

When looking at the angle you can see that it is a straight line with a intersecting line. This tells you that you will have supplementary angles, or angles that add up to 180 degrees.

You can only have supplementary angles when they are on either side of a straight line that has been intersected.

Since supplementary angles have to add up to 180 degrees, and you already know that one part of the current supplementary angles is 50 degrees, you can do the math,

180-50=130

To get your answer of D. 130
