Answer:

The markup percentage is 61.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The cost price of each ornaments = $23

The sell price of each ornament = $37.08

Let The markup percentage = x

<u>Now, According to question</u>

Markup percentage = \dfrac{s.p - c.p}{c.p} × 100

Or, x% = \dfrac{37.08 - 23}{23}

Or, x% = \dfrac{14.08}{23}

Or, x% = 0.612

∴ x = 0.612 × 100

I.e x = 61.2

So, The The markup percentage = x = 61.2

Hence, The markup percentage is 61.2 Answer

PLEASE HELP! THANKS! The measures, in degrees, of the 3 angles of a triangle are given by 2x +1, 3x - 3, and 9x. What is the mea
drek231 [11]
So all of the internal angles of a triangle will add up to 180 degrees.  So if we add all of the expressions given and set them equal to 180, we can solve for x, then solve for each angle...

(2x + 1) + (3x - 3) + 9x = 180
2x + 3x + 9x + 1 - 3 = 180
14x - 2 = 180
14x = 182
x = 13

Now we can substitute 13 into each expression to find the value of each angle...

2x + 1 =
2(13) + 1 =
26 + 1 = 27 degrees

3x - 3 =
3(13) - 3 =
39 - 3 = 36 degrees

9x =
9(13) = 117 degrees

So the 3 angles are 27 degrees, 36 degrees, and 117 degrees.

The smallest is 27 degrees

** Note-- I don't see 27 degrees in the answer choices you gave, so I double checked my math (I didn't find any mistakes).  Please check to see that the question is written correctly (pay close attention to plus and minus signs).

Martha’s new weight is 77.25. 3% of 75 is 2.25 and you can find that by multiplying 75 by .03 and adding that number to 75. hope this helps!

Why is 5 mililon greater than 152000
Masja [62]
5 million is greater than 152000 because 5 million = 5,000,000 and that is larger than 152000 (only 152 thousand; 5 million is 5000 thousands)
