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

Darryl left the White House and traveled toward the ferry office at an average speed of 25 mph. Some time later Jacob left trave
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Darryl :

Speed = 25mph

Jacob:

Traveled in opposite direction

Speed = 35mph

After Darryl had traveled for 4 hours, Distance between them was 170 miles

Distance traveled by Darryl :

Speed * time = (25 * 4) = 100 miles

Total distance = distance traveled by Darryl + distance traveled by Jacob

170 miles = 100 miles + distance traveled by jacob

Distance traveled by Jacob = 170 - 100

Distance traveled by Jacob = 70 miles

Time = distance / speed

Time traveled by Jacob = 70 miles / 35mph

Time traveled by Jacob = 2 hours

Answer:

a    true

b   false

c.    false

d.   true

e.    false

f.   true

Step-by-step explanation:

The function is y =35+8x where x is the number of items sold and y is the earnings

To determine if the point is on the graph substitute the point in and see if it is true

a (7,91)

91 = 35+ 8(7)

91 = 35+ 56  

91 = 91   true

b(11, 121)

121 = 35+ 8(11)

121 = 35+ 88  

121 = 123   false

c. (9, 110)

110 = 35+ 8(9)

110 = 35+ 72  

110 = 107   false

d. (4,67)

67 = 35+ 8(4)

67 = 35+ 32  

67 = 67   true

e. (5,72)

72 = 35+ 8(5)

72 = 35+ 40  

72 = 75   false

f. (3, 59)

59 = 35+ 8(3)

59 = 35+ 24  

59 = 59   true

Julian walked 6/10 of a mile to his friends house and another 35/100 mile to the store. He walked 1/4 of a mile back home. Julia
AveGali [126]

The statement, "Julian's sister said he walked 1/5 mile" cannot be agreed because Julian totally walked 1\frac{1}{5} \text{ or } \frac{6}{5} miles.

<u>Solution:</u>  

Given that,

  • Julian walked 6/10 of a mile to his friends house
  • Another 35/100 mile to the store
  • He walked 1/4 of a mile back home

To find total distance walked by Julian we have to add the above stated values. That is, \frac{6}{10} +\frac{35}{100} +\frac{1}{4}

Factors of 10 = 5\times2

Factors of 100 = 5\times2\times5\times2

Factors of 4 = 2\times2

Therefore, the least common factor of 10, 100 and 4 is 100. With like denominators we can operate on just the numerators,

\frac{6\times10}{10\times10} +\frac{35\times1}{100\times1} +\frac{1\times25}{4\times1}\rightarrow\frac{60+35+25}{100}\rightarrow\frac{120}{100}

\Rightarrow\frac{120}{100}\rightarrow\frac{6}{5}

Which can also be written as 1\frac{1}{5}.

So, from the above calculation it can be said that Julian walked 1\frac{1}{5} \text{ miles }.
