Answer:

The rate of markdown it would have to offer is 27.3%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The original price of sofa was, OP = $880.

The new price of sofa is, NP = $640

The change in price is:

Change=OP-NP\\=880-640\\=240

The rate of markdown offered by the shopkeeper is:

Rate\ of\ markdown=\frac{Change\ in\ Price}{Orignal\ Price}\times100 \\=\frac{240}{880}\times100\\ =0.27273\times100\\\approx27.3\%

Thus, the rate of markdown offered by the shopkeeper is 27.3%.

You need to solve a system of equations. You decide to use the elimination method. Which of these is not allowed? 2x - 3y = 12
suter [353]

Answer:

A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Elimination Method is the method for solving a pair of linear equations which reduces one equation to one that has only a single variable.

If the coefficients of one variable are opposites, you add the equations to eliminate a variable, and then solve.

If the coefficients are not opposites, then we multiply one or both equations by a number to create opposite coefficients, and then add the equations to eliminate a variable and solve.

When multiplying the equation by a coefficient, we multiply both sides of the equation (multiplying both sides of the equation by some nonzero number does not change the solution).

So, option B is not allowed (it is not allowed to multiply only one part of the equation)
