The cost= 75 candy bars •$0.49;
75•49/100= ((75•50)-75)/100= ((75•100/2)-75)/100= ((7500/2)-75)/100=
(3750-75)/100= 3675/100= 36.75

Or
75•50cents= 37.5
considering you pay 50 cents instead of 49;
37.5 -0.75= 36.75
Now you took away the extra penny between 50 and 49

Answer:

Therefore the value of x is

$x=1\pm\sqrt{19}i$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$x^{2}+20=2x$ which is

$x^{2}-2x+20=0$

To Find:

x = ? using Quadratic Formula

Solution:

For a Quadratic Equation ax² + bx + c = 0 , Formula Method is given as

$x=\dfrac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}$

On Comparing with above we get

$a=1\\b=-2\\c=20$

Substituting a , b , c in Formula method we get

$x=\dfrac{-(-2)\pm\sqrt{(-2)^{2}-4(1)(20)}}{2\times 1}\\\\x=\dfrac{2\pm\sqrt{-76}}{2}\\\\x=\dfrac{2\pm2\sqrt{19}i}{2}\\Dividing\ by\ 2\ we\ get\\\\x=1 \pm\sqrt{19}i$

Therefore the value of x is

$x=1\pm\sqrt{19}i$

Answer:

the markup percentage is 66.67%

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the percent of markup based on cost is shown below:

= (Selling price - paid price) ÷ (paid price)

= ($15 - $9) ÷ ($9)

= 66.67%

By taking the difference of the selling price & paid price and then divided it by paid price we can get the percentage of markup

Hence, the markup percentage is 66.67%
