Answer:

r = 31.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Δ ACE and Δ BCD are similar, thus the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

$\frac{AE}{BD}$ = $\frac{CE}{CD}$ , substitute values

$\frac{r}{19.5}$ = $\frac{64}{40}$ ( cross- multiply )

40r = 1248 ( divide both sides by 40 )

r = 31.2

An office equipment store buys highlighter pens boxes at a wholesale price of $15 each. It then marks up the price by 94%, and s

Stells [14]

Answer:

Option (d) is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The wholesale price of a pen is $15.

It then marks up the price by 94%.

Its marked price is equal to 94% of $15. So,

$\text{MP}=\dfrac{94}{100}\times \$15\\\\\text{MP}=\$14.1$

Selling price of the highlighter pen is equal to the sum of marked price and the wholesale price.

SP = $14.1+$15

SP = $29.1

Hence, the marked price is $14.1 and the selling price is $29.1
