Profit = 8%

If the briefcase was marked down 20% from 1500 you multiply 1500 x .2 = 300 in order to calculate the discount.

Calculate the discounted price:

1500 - 300 = 1200

Calculate 10% discount of 1200:

1200 x .1 = 120

Calculate the sales price:

1200 - 120 = 1080

The last step is to calculate the profit/loss is the cost is 1000.

The briefcase sold for 1080 and the company paid 1000 for it, so there was a profit of 80.

The percentage is calculate by dividing 80/1000 = 8% profit

15 is 30% of 50 

Change the percentage to a decimal by dividing it over 100:
\frac{30}{100} = 0.3

Divide 15 over 0.3:
\frac{15}{0.3} = 50

Brainliest + Points<br><br> Can you please explain why choice A. is correct?
tankabanditka [31]

Answer: because that is what the slope would look like

Step-by-step explanation:

when you graph this, you have a point at 2, 4 and 0, 8. when you go to 0, 8 and count down four so you now have to move to the right to get to 2, 4. You then move to the right 2 spaces. so, you moved (-4, 2) since this can be simplified, you then have (-2, 1) which is equal to -2. If this still doesnt make sense, go to Desmos.com and put (2,4) click the plus button then add expression then type (0,8). Count down -4 and over 2. Hope this helps

Two bike rental companies have different pricing systems. Company a charges a flat fee of $4 plus $2 per mile. Company b does no
EastWind [94]

Answer:it will the take 5 mitutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the distance at which both companies charge the same amount.

Let y represent the cost of x miles when using company A.

Let z represent the cost of x miles when using company B.

Company A charges a flat fee of $4 plus $2 per mile. It means that

y = 4 + 2x

Company b does not charge a flat fee but charges $2.80 per mile driven. This means that

z = 2.8x

To determine the distance before both plans will be be the same, we would equate both equations. It becomes.

4 + 2x = 2.8x

2.8x - 2x = 4

0.8x = 4

x = 4/0.8 = 5
