Let cost price be x
according to question
x + 40% of x = 280
x+ 0.4x=280
1.4x=280
x=200
this 200 is the store cost or cost price for store
30%of 200= 60
according to question,
cost for employee= 200-60= 140
Answer:
Our number is 7.
Step-by-step explanation:
We also know that it's 2x + 21 = 5x.
Now we solve.
21 = 5x - 2x
21 = 3x
7 = x
Answer:
correct do
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
(x+2)^2 + 4x^2 = (3x+4)^2
(x+2)(x+2)+ 4x^2= (3x+4)(3x+4)
x^2 + 2x + 2x + 4 + 4x^2 = 9x^2 + 12x + 12 x + 16
5x^2 + 4x + 4 = 9x^2 + 24x + 16
-4x^2 - 20x - 12 = 0
now we can use the quadratic formula
(-b±√(b²-4ac))/(2a)
I can't type all this so
.....
x = -0.697224362 or -4.302775638
AB can't be negative so it's the first one
so it's equals to 1.302775638
