Remember PEMDAS - parentheses, exponents, multiply, divide, add, subtract
because multiply come before subtract, your first step would be 1/2 x 2 = 1
next, you subtract -> 15 - 1 = 14
14 is your answer
        
             
        
        
        
Number of shirts a department store bought = 200
Cost price of 200 shirts = $5400
Cost price of 1 shirt :


Thus, the cost price of one shirt = $27
Price at which the department store sold each shirt = $30
Which means :
▪︎Cost price of shirt = $27
▪︎Selling price of shrit = $30
Since selling price is greater than cost price, there was a markup in the price of the shirts.
We know that :

Markup percentage in the price of the shirts :





Thus, the percentage of markup = 
Therefore, the percentage of markup in the shirt's price = 
 
        
                    
             
        
        
        
Answer:
x = -3
y = 0 
Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Equating</u><u> </u><u>(</u><u> </u><u>iii</u><u> </u><u>)</u><u> </u><u>and</u><u> </u><u>(</u><u> </u><u>iv</u><u> </u><u>)</u>

4y - 6 = -6 + 3y 
4y - 3y = -6 + 6
y = 0 
Putting value of y in ( iii )
x = 2y - 3 
x = 2 ( 0 ) - 3 
x = -3 
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
x = -4/9
Step-by-step explanation:
X + B = C
x + (-8/4) = (22/-9)
x = (8/4) - (22/9)
x = 2 - 22/9 = 18/9 - 22/9 = -4/9 
 
        
                    
             
        
        
        
The point P has coordinates (x,y) = (-2,6) so x = -2 and y = 6
Replace x and y with those values into the rule given
So,
(x,y) ---> (x-2, y-16)
turns into
(-2,6) ---> (-2-2, 6-16) = (-4,-10)
P = (-2,6)
P ' = (-4,-10) 
The answer is -10 because your teacher just wants the y coordinate of point P'
