Answer:
a. $20.45
b. $24.55
c. $4.55
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are asked to calculate the cost price and profit or loss selling a pair of shoes.
we proceed as follows
Firstly, we want to find the cost price given the selling price and the mark up percentage.
mathematically;
profit =( selling price - cost price)/cost price * 100%
here our profit is 120% with the cost price being $45. we plug these values
120 = 45-cp/cp * 100%
120cp = 100(45-cp)
120cp = 4500 -100cp
220cp = 4500
cp = 4500/220 = $20.45
His profit is selling price - cost price = 45 - 20.45 = $24.55
His profit selling same shoe for $25 is 25-20.45 = $4.55
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
divided by 2/3 then add the 9 and the 6 and subtract the total
Answer: x = - 12/9 ( the equation is negative)
Step-by-step explanation:
\frac{5}{3}x+\frac{1}{3}=13+\frac{1}{3}x+\frac{8}{3}x
\frac{5}{3}x=3x+\frac{38}{3}
\frac{5}{3}x-3x=3x+\frac{38}{3}-3x
-\frac{4}{3}x=\frac{38}{3}
3\left(-\frac{4}{3}x\right)=\frac{38\cdot \:3}{3}
-4x=38
\frac{-4x}{-4}=\frac{38}{-4}
x=-\frac{19}{2}
"The sum of r and 7" can be represented as r + 7
A. Bc a negative times a negative would be positive
C. Bc it would equal 0 and zero is not negative.
1*-7=-7 it wants a negative value so times it by one keeps it negative and same with if it is Multiplied by 7
