Elsie bought a video game for $85.00. If the store charges 170% of its cost for the game, how much is the store’s profit?

170% means 170/100

To get 170% multiply 170/100 by 85.

14450/100 will be the fraction.

Simplified it is 144.5.

That is how much Elsie has to pay.

Subtract to find the profit.

144.5-85 is 59.5.

The stores profit is $59.5.

Hope this helped, and please mark brainliest! :)

Answer: 2x + 5y = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Two lines are said to be parallel if they have the same slope.

The equation of the line given :

2x + 5y = 10

To find the slope , we will write it in the form y = mx + c , where m is the slope and c is the y - intercept.

2x + 5y = 10

5y = -2x + 10

y = -2/5x + 10/5

y = -2/5x + 2

This means that the slope is -2/5 ,the line that is parallel to this line will also have a slope of -2/5.

using the formula:

y-y_{1} = m (x-x_{1} ) to find the equation of the line , we have

y - 1 = -2/5(x -{-5})

y - 1 = -2/5 ( x + 5 )

5y - 5 = -2 ( x + 5 )

5y - 5 = -2x - 10

5y + 2x = -10 + 5

therefore :

2x + 5y = -5 is the equation of the line that is parallel to 2x + 5y = 10

Suppose PR = 54, solve for QR<br> 4x-1<br> 3x-1<br> P<br> R
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

QR = 23

Step-by-step explanation:

P, A, and R are collinear.

PR = 54

PQ = 4x - 1

QR = 3x - 1

To solve for the numerical length of PR, let's generate an equation to find the value of x.

According to the segment addition postulate:

PQ + QR = PR

(4x - 1) + (3x - 1) = 54 (substitution)

Solve for x

4x - 1 + 3x - 1 = 54

Combine like terms

4x + 3x - 1 - 1 = 54

7x - 2 = 54

Add 2 to both sides

7x - 2 + 2 = 54 + 2

7x = 56

Divide both sides by 7

\frac{7x}{7} = \frac{56}{7}

x = 8

QR = 3x - 1

Plug in the value of x into the equation

QR = 3(8) - 1 = 24 - 1

QR = 23

Rice weighing 3 3/4 pounds was divided equally and placed in 4 containers. How many ounces of rice were in each?​
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

Solution

To solve the problem first we have simplify the improper fraction.

⇒ 33/4 ÷ 4 pounds.

= (4 × 3 + 3) /4 ÷ 4 pounds.

= 15/4 ÷ 4 pounds.

= 15/4 × 1/4 pounds.

= 15/16 pounds.

Now we know that, 1 pound = 16 ounces.

Therefore, 15/16 pounds .

= 15/16 × 16 ounces.

= 15/1

= 15

= 15 ounces.

Answer: 15 ounces.
