Okay, this is a case of substitution:
3x + y = 13 correct?
-3x -3x
So: y = 13 - 3x
So: 3x +(13-3x)=13
and this is interchangeable, so x and y = all positive numbers
aka. 6x + 2(13-3x) = 26
it does not matter what numbers x and y are as long as they positive

A department store buys 200 shirts at a cost of $5,400 and sells them at a selling

jekas [21]

Number of shirts a department store bought = 200

Cost price of 200 shirts = $5400

Cost price of 1 shirt :

$=\tt \frac{5400}{200}$

$\color{plum} =\tt \$27$

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 :

$\color{hotpink}\tt \: markup \: percentage = \color{plum} \frac{selling \: price - cost \: price}{cost \: price } \times 100$

Markup percentage in the price of the shirts :

$= \tt \frac{30 - 27}{27} \times 100$

$= \tt \frac{3}{27} \times 100$

$= \tt \frac{3 \times 100}{27}$

$= \tt \frac{300}{27}$

$\color{plum} = \tt11.1 \%$

Thus, the percentage of markup = $\tt 11.1 \%$

Therefore, the percentage of markup in the shirt's price = $\color{hotpink} \tt11.1 \%$

viktelen [127]

Answer:

1125.

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm going to work out the answer is <u><em>grams</em></u>.

1kg = 1000g

0.225kg of butter = 225g, 225g of sugar, 225g of flour, 0.2kg of eggs = 200g, 250g of berries.

225 + 225 + 225 + 200 +250 = 1125.

Hope that helps. x
