Answer:

l=102 feet, w=68 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w=width and l=length

P=2l + 2w

And we know that w=2/3l

So, using substitution...

340=2l + 2(2/3l)

340=2l + 4/3l

340=6/3l + 4/3l

340=10/3l (now multiply both sides by 3 to get rid of fraction)

1020=10l

So l=102

Now plug in to get w

2(102)+2w=340

204+2w=340

2w=136

w=68

Now check:

2(102)+2(68)=

204+136=

340 It works!

A department store buys 100 shirts at a cost of ​$700 and sells them at a selling price of ​$10 each. Find the percent markup.
Serjik [45]

Answer:

42.8%

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

A department store buys 100 shirts at a cost of ​$700

let us find the cost of 1 shirt

cost of 1 shirt= 700/100= $7 per shirt

The cost price per shirt = $7

We are given that the selling price = $10 per shirt

Step two:

The percent markup can be found as

percent markup= selling-cost price/cost price*100

percent markup= 10-7/10*100

percent markup= 3/7*100

percent markup= 0.428*100

percent markup= 42.8%
