Use multipliers:
The normal price the shop would sell the racquet for is:
1.6 * 200 = 320
'1.6' is the multiplier that I got using the percentage. Multiplying a value by 1.6 is the same as increasing the value by 60%. If you multiplied it by 0.1 (which is the same as dividing by 10), you would get just 10% of the value.
Back to the question, now we can use the multiplier 0.75 because we are are reducing the price by 25% (0.25 as a decimal), so:
320 * 0.75 = 240
And now we want just the profit so we take off how much it cost the shop to buy ($200): 240 - 200 = 40
2/x ^6-3 you do the opposite of everything
Answer: 28 in.
Step-by-step explanation:
its simple
Answer:
Part A) see the explanation
Part B) 
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A)
we know that
A relationship between two variables, x, and C, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form
or 
Let
C ---> is the total cost (represent the output or dependent variable)
x ----> is the number of books (represent the input or independent variable)
In this problem
we have a proportional relationship between the variables x and C
Part B) we know that
The linear equation is given by

The constant of proportionality k is the same that the slope or unit rate of the linear equation
In this problem the constant k is given

so

For x=12 books
substitute in the equation and solve for C

In function notation
