Mathematics
1 answer:
spayn [35]4 years ago
5 0

Answer:

option: D is correct. (  (D) a markup of 15% on selling price is equivalent to a 85% markup on cost ).

Step-by-step explanation:

" Markup is the percentage difference between a product's cost and its selling price "

Since we are asked to Convert a markup of 15% on selling price to its equivalent markup on cost.

As there is a markup of  15% on selling price. Hence the cost of the product would be (100-15)%=85% of the selling price.

<em>Hence, a markup of 15% on selling price is equivalent to a 85% markup on cost.</em>

<em>Hence, option D is true.</em>

Use the substitution method to solve the system of equations. Choose the correct ordered pair.
motikmotik
Ur gonna have to pick an equation and solve for a variable.

2x - 2y = 6
2x = 2y + 6 ...divide everything by 2 because u want x by itself
x = y + 3

now we sub y + 3 in for x in the other equation
14x - 2y = 78
14(y + 3) - 2y = 78...distribute thru the parenthesis
14y + 42 - 2y = 78...subtract 42 from both sides, cancelling the 42 on the left
        -42          -42
-----------------------
14y - 2y = 36 ...simplify
12y = 36...divide by 12 on both sides, cancelling out the 12 on the left
y = 36/12
y = 3

now , we already know that x = y + 3...and we know y = 3...so sub in 3 for y and solve for x
x = y + 3
x = 3 + 3
x = 6

solution is (6,3)

it is always a good idea to check ur answer by subbing it into one or both of the equations to see if it is correct
2x - 2y = 6......(6,3)...x = 6 and y = 3
2(6) - 2(3) = 6
12 - 6 = 6
6 = 6 (correct)

so yes, ur solution is (6,3)

During the school year or each student planted 2 * 10^2 trees as part of a community service project. If there are 3.5 * 10^3 st
Nookie1986 [14]

Total 7*10^5 trees were planted.

Further explanation:

The product of both quantities will give us the total number of trees planted by the students for the community project.

So,

Given

Trees\ planted\ by\ each\ student=2*10^2\\Total\ students\ in\ school=3.5*10^3\\Total\ trees\ planted= (2*10^2)*(3.5*10^3)\\= 7*10^5\ trees

So, total 7*10^5 trees were planted.
