Marked up by 135% means
new price=original price+(original price times markup) =125+(125 times 1.35)=293.75
tax
293.75 times 0.075=22.03125
293.75-22.03125=271.718 so aprox $271.72
selling price would be $271.72
Which one do you want to be awnserd
( 'x' is not 144 .)
The supplement of an angle is (180 - x) .
The problem says that (2/3) of 'x' is equal to (180 - x) .
180 - x = 2/3 x
Multiply each side by 3 :
( Note: 3 x 180 = 540 .)
540 - 3x = 2x
Add 3x to each side:
540 = 5x
Divide each side by 5 :
<u>x = 108°</u> .
