4 nickles
Explanation:
80=N+D
7.80=0.05N + 0.1D

D=80-N

7.80=0.05N + 0.1(80-N)
7.80=0.05N + 8 - 0.1N
0.1N + 7.80 = 8 + 0.05N
0.05N = 8-7.80
0.05N = 0.2
N= 4

A jewelry store purchases necklaces for n dollars each. The necklaces are then marked up by 20%, and costumers are charged 5% sa
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost price = $n

Mark up price = selling price- cost price

= (20% × $n)

Selling price = $n + (20% × $n)

Sales tax = 5% × ($n + (20% × $n))

Total cost = selling price + sales tax

Total cost = $n + (20% × $n) + 5% × $n + (20% × $n)

= 1.2 × $n + 0.06 × $n

= 1.26 × $n.

The price, P, of a sweater was discounted by 10% in
aalyn [17]

Answer:

In terms of P, the price of the sweater after the discount is 0.72P.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the price P would represent 100% and the price was discounted by 10%, you can calculate 10% of 100% and subtract that amount, which would be:

100*10%=10

100-10=90%

This means that the price paid would be 90% of P. Then, the statement says that the price was discounted by another 20%. So, you have to calculate 20% of the price and subtract that amount from the price:

90*20%=18

90-18=72%

According to this, this means that in terms of P, the price of the sweater after the discount is 0.72P.
