Answer:

$1218

Step-by-step explanation:

The total retail cost of the electronics is the original cost (at $870) PLUS the markup (0.40)($870) = $348. This comes to $1218.

A faster and just as accurate method would be to mult. $870 by 1.4:

1.4($870) = $1218

Rufus appears before Bill and Ted and offers them a bogus proposition: they must paint a house together with their magical guita

jolli1 [7]

Answer:

6.79

Step-by-step explanation:

-Let X denote the total amount of the job.

-The job has to be done in 5 hrs, therefore the portion done every hour is:

$Rate=\frac{Total}{Time}\\\\=\frac{X}{5}\\\\=\frac{1}{5}X=0.2X$

Therefore, the rate of Bill and Ted working jointly must equal the rate calculated above:

$R_{Bill}=\frac{X}{19}\\\\=\frac{1}{19}X\\\\R_{Bill}+R_{Ted}=R_{required}\\\\\frac{1}{19}X+R_{Ted}=\frac{1}{5}X\\\\R_{Ted}=\frac{1}{5}X-\frac{1}{19}X\\\\=\frac{14}{95}X\\\\\therefore \frac{14}{95}X=1\ hr\\\\X=1\div \frac{14}{95}\\\\=6.7857\approx 6.79$ $hrs$
