Answer:

25

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, we need to simplify this. we have a ratio of 80:125.

As these numbers end in either 0 or 5, we know they are divisible by 5.

By dividing these by five, our ratio becomes 16:25.

As we have 16 jackets, we know we must need to sell 25 jackets to maintain the ratio.

In the inequality 1/ 2 x - 6 > 10, x represents Todd's age. Which phrase most accurately describes Todd's age? A) Todd is old
Tom [10]

Answer:

Option A) Todd is older than 32

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

\frac{1}{2}x-6>10

Solve for x

Adds 6 both sides

\frac{1}{2}x>10+6\\\\\frac{1}{2}x>16

Multiply by 2 both sides

x>32

so

Todd's age is greater than 32

therefore

Todd is older than 32

Keelah's clothing store bicycles for $50 and then sells them for $80 what is the percent of markup on the price of the coat
kondaur [170]

Answer:

62.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write a proportion. We know that $50 is the original value and $80 is the marked up price. We don't know the marked up percentage. Let's call it x. We write equal ratios of \frac{x}{100} comparing percent and \frac{50}{80} comparing the 50 to the marked up price. We then set them equal.

\frac{x}{100} =\frac{50}{80}

We then cross multiply across the equal sign from numerator to the opposite numerator.

80(x)=50(100)

80x=5000

We divide to find x.

x=62.5

This means the bicycles are marked up 62.5% and the original value is 37.5%.

For a school fundraiser students are selling snack bags and candy bars to raise money on Wednesday the students or 23 snack bags
meriva

Answer:

$1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

The selling for each candy bar may be determined by  a set of linear equations. This pair of linear equations may be solved simultaneously by using the elimination method. This will involve ensuring that the coefficient of one of the unknown variables is the same in both equations.

It may be solved by substitution in that one of the variable is made the subject of the equation and the result is substituted into the second equation .

Let the cost of a snack bag be s and that of a candy bar be c, then if on Wednesday the students or 23 snack bags and 36 candy bars that raised $114.75 on Thursday the seventh so 37 snack bags and 36 candy bars that raised $146.25

23s + 36c = 114.75

37s + 36c = 146.25

14s = 31.5

s = $2.25

23(2.25) + 36c = 114.75

36c = 114.75 - 51.75

36c = 63

c = 63/36

= $1.75
