Answer:
the markup is 1.26 (the amount added is .26)
1.26x (when x is the price Fred buys them for from the manufacturer)
1.26(40)
$50.40 is the retail price
50.4-40
$10.40 is the markup
Step-by-step explanation:
The 26% markup means that he is selling the flags 26% above the cost.
So, the cost would represent 100%, which is 1, and 26% of markup in decimal number is 0.26.
The price including the markup would be 1.26 as decimal or 126% as percentage.
The problem states that the cost is unknown, so we represent that with a variable x. The retail price would be 1.26x, which is 126% per flag.
Finally, if Fred paid $40 per flag, the actual retail price would be:
1.26($40)=$50.40.
With $10.40 of markup.
I think the answer is 25.5. Although, I don't know how you would have half a bike unless there was a 3 wheel bike which would make the answer 24.
Answer:
40 grams of 13% alcohol solution and 10 grams of 18% alcohol solution.
Step-by-step explanation:
13%(x) + 18%(50-x) = 14%*50g Multiply them all
0.13x + (9-0.18x) = 7
0.13x-0.18x + 9 = 7 Simplify the equation and subtract 0.13x from 0.18x
9-0.05x = 7 Add 0.05x to each side
9 = 7+0.05x Subtract 7 from both sides
0.05x = 2 Multiply each side by 100
5x = 200 Divide both sides by 5
x = 40
50 - 40 = 10
40 grams and 10 grams
Your welcome
The fraction is 4 1/2. Just convert the decimal into a fraction. 50/100 is the same as 5/10 which is the same as 1/2.
Answer:
-6
Step-by-step explanation:
