Mark up value is either a fixed amount or a percentage of the total cost or selling price.
In this problem, mark up value is the percentage of the total cost.
To determine the retail price, total cost and mark up must be added.
Selling Price = Total Cost + Mark up value based on Total Cost
However, we are looking for the Total cost. Thus, our formula should be
Total Cost = Selling Price - Mark up value based on Total Cost.
Let X = total cost.
Selling Price = $8,000
Mark up vale = 6% of total cost.
X = $8,000 - 6%X
X = $8,000 - 0.06X
To get X, transfer -0.06X to the other side and change its sign from negative to positive.
X + 0.06X = $8000
1.06X = $8000
To get X, divide both sides by 1.06
1.06X / 1.06 = $8000 / 1.06
X = $7,547.17 total cost.
The problem is looking for the mark up value and since it states that the mark up value is 6% of the total cost, then:
Total Cost x 6% = Mark up value
$7,547.17 x 0.06 = $452.83 mark up value
To check:
X + 0.06X = $8000
$7547.17 + $452.83 = $8000
$8000 = $8000 equal.
Answer:
Here is the complete question attached with.
The mean score would decrease more than the median score.
Step-by-step explanation:
The numbers for which we have to find the mean and median are:
Here the mean, 
Median,
as median is the middle term if the observations are arranged in ascending order.
Now as the question says that we have to add a zero to see its effect.
So adding a zero we have
Mean 
Median 
,as number of observations is even terms so we will add two middle numbers and divide it with 
.
So we can conclude that the mean is having more variation than the median.
Mean shows as variation of 
where as Median shows a variation of 
only.
So our final answer is option D that is "The mean score would decrease more than the median score."
Omg i would just guess and go for the third one
Answer:
E. 2, 3, 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the shortest two sides must exceed the longest side. That is only the case for the set ...
{2, 3, 4}
Recall that

Multiply on the right by
