Hi there! So the the new price is $93, and went up from $55. Let's subtract the numbers. 93 - 55 is 38. The change is 38. To find the percent markup, we can write and solve a proportion. Set it up like this:
38/55 = x/100
This is because the amount of change goes above the original (55), and x represents the percent out of 100. We are looking for the markup. Let's cross multiply the values. 100 * 38 is 3,800. 55 * x is 55x. 3,800 = 55x. Now, divide each side by 55 to isolate the x. 55x/55 cancels out. 3,800/55 is 69.0909 or 69 when rounded to the nearest whole number. There. The percent of markup is approx. 69%.
Answer: 10 and -4
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - 2 Plug in 4 for x
3(4) - 2 = 12 - 2 = 10
5x + 6. Plug in -2 for x
5(-2) + 6 = -10 + 6 = -4
2/5 tablespoons of vanilla extract ... 6 muffins
x tablespoons of vanilla extract = ? ... 18 muffins
If you would like to know how much vanilla extract does he need, you can calculate this using the following steps:
x * 6 = 18 * 2/5
x * 6 = 36/5 /6
x = 36/5 / 6
x = 6/5 = 1 1/5
Result: Arthur will need 1 1/5 tablespoons of vanilla extract for 18 muffins.
