Answer:

  • <u>53.5 %</u>

Explanation:

You can convert the percent markup into a multiplicative factor in this way:

Base price:                     15,800 . . . (cost to the seller)

Percent mark up:           115% . . .  (based on the cost to the seller)

Sale price:                      15,800 + 115% of x = 15,800 + 115 × 15,800 /100 =

                                        = 15,800 + 1.15 × 15,800 = 15,800 (2.15) = 33,970

The markup is:

  • Markup = price paid by the seller - cost to the seller = 33,970 - 15,800   = 18,170 (notice that this is 115% of 15,800)

And <em>the percent markup based on the sale price is</em>:

  • % = (markup / sale price) × 100 = (18,700 / 33,970) × 100 =

            = 53.49 %

Rounding to the nearest tenth percent that is 53.5 %.

2. Distributive Property

4 is distributed and multiplied inside the parenthesis to x and -5.


4. Subtraction Property of Equality

x is subtracted from both sides of the equation.

4x - x - 22 = x - x + 3

3x - 22 = 3


5. Subtraction Property of Equality

22 is added to both sides of the equation.

3x - 22 + 22 = 3 + 22

3x = 25


6. Division Property of Equality

3 is divided from both sides of the equation.

\frac{3x}{3} = \frac{25}{3}

x = \frac{25}{3}
