Answer:

k = 23% profit on sale price is needed to ensure 30% profit on cost price

Step-by-step explanation:

Let sale price be = s , Profit = k% of s

Let cost price be = 100 , Profit = 30% of c

Cost price (c) + profit (p)  = Sale price (s)

c + 0.3c = s

1.3c = s

Profit as a percentage of sale = (Profit / Sale) x 100

= (0.3c / 1.3c) x 100

= 23%

Find the quotient and any excluded values.<br><br> (x + 5/x^2 + 9x + 20)/(x^2-16/x-4)
Wittaler [7]
By  <span>(x + 5/x^2 + 9x + 20) you apparently meant the following:

         x+5
 ----------------------
   x^2 + 9x + 20

and by 

</span><span>(x^2-16/x-4)
                                       x^2-16
you apparently meant ---------------
                                         x - 4

Please use additional parentheses for clarity.

Dividing,

</span>         x+5                   (x-4)(x+4)
 ----------------------  *  ---------------
   x^2 + 9x + 20                  x-4

Now, x^2 + 9x + 20 factors into   (x+4)(x+5), so what we have now is

       (x+5)(x+4)
------------------------- = 1           This is true for all x, so there are no exclusions.
    (x+4)(x+5)
