Answer:
195
Step-by-step explanation:
I would tackle this question with cross multiplying.
x 65
--- = ------
300 100
The 300 is the price the customer will pay and x is the amount Jill bought it for. Because Jill wants a 35% markup, that means she is willing to pay 65% what her customers will pay (100-35=65). so we put the 65 over 100 on the other side of the equals sign and cross multiply it out.
100x=19500
Divide both sides by 100 and you get
x=$195
So your answer is: The most Jill Roe can pay for a bedspread is $195.

Step-by-step explanation:
A plot of land in the shape of a vertical ellipse. The equation of the ellipse is
If the foci are 8 feet from the center, then 
If the plot of land is 34 feet across the vertical axis, then 
Use formula 
(because ellipse is vertical, then b>a) to find a:
Then the plot of land is 2a=30 ft across the other axis.
If b>a, the eccentricity of the ellipse is

Answer: in the 1% account we have $2600 and in the 6% account we have $2400.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have two amounts A and B such that:
Where A is the amount invested in the 1% earning interest account and B is the amount invested in the 6% earning interest account.
A + B = $5000,
If the interest is yearly, then we have that, after one year, the interest is:
A*(1%/100%) + B*(6%/100%) = $170
A*0.01 + B*0.06 = $170
So we have two equations:
A + B = $5000
A*0.01 + B*0.06 = $170
In the first equation we can isolate A and get:
A = $5000 - B
and replace it in the other equation:
($5000 - B)*0.01 + B*0.06 = $170
$50 + B*0.05 = $170
B*0.05 = $120
B = $120/0.05 = $2400
Then A = $5000 - $2400 = $2600.
