Answer:

$20.15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Original cost =  $9.57

Markup= 95%

Let us find the new cost of the basket

=95/100*9.57

=0.95*9.57

=$9.0915

Hence the cost of the basket is

= 9.57+9.0915

=18.66

Also, the sales tax is 8%

=8/100*18.66

=0.08*18.66

=1.4928

Therefore, the total amount to be paid is

=18.66+1.4928

=$20.15

Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

3 - (n - 1) = 1/2(3n - 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to write three minus the difference of a number and one equals one-half of the difference of three times the same number and four as an equation.

Let the number be n.

The first part is: three minus the difference of a number and one:

3 - (n - 1)

The second part is: one-half of the difference of three times the same number and four:

1/2(3n - 4)

Now, let us equate the first and second parts:

3 - (n - 1) = 1/2(3n - 4)

PS: I really do not understand the options

Julie's savings account has a balance of $57.85 in January. By March, her balance is 4 times as much as her January balance. Bet
sladkih [1.3K]
January . . . $57.85

March . . . . 4 times as much = 4 (57.85) = $231.40

Deposit  78.45 more . . . ($231.40 + 78.45) = <em>$309.85</em> .

Notice that "interest" is never mentioned anywhere in this problem.
In other words, it doesn't matter whether Julie's savings account is
in a bucket in the basement, a mayonnaise jar on the porch, under
her mattress, or in a bank that pays no interest.

Without interest, $309.85 is what she <em><u>does</u></em> have<em><u /></em> in November, which
is about right for savings accounts in banks these days.

What her balance <em><u>should</u></em> be in November is an entirely different subject.

A necklace has and matching bracelet have two types of beads. The necklace has 12 large beads and 8 small beads and weighs 88 gr
miv72 [106K]

Weight of one large bead is 1.5 grams and weight of one small bead is 8.75 grams.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Weight of one large bead = x

Weight of one small bead = y

According to given statement;

12x+8y=88     Eqn 1

5x+2y=25      Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 2 by 4

4(5x+2y=25)\\20x+8y=100\ \ \ Eqn\ 3\\

Subtracting Eqn 1 from Eqn 3

(20x+8y)-(12x+8y)=100-88\\20x+8y-12x-8y=12\\8x=12

Dividing both sides by 8

\frac{8x}{8}=\frac{12}{8}\\x=1.5

Putting x=1.5 in Eqn 1

12(1.5)+8y=88\\18+8y=88\\8y=88-18\\8y=70

Dividing both sides by 8

\frac{8y}{8}=\frac{70}{8}\\y=8.75

Weight of one large bead is 1.5 grams and weight of one small bead is 8.75 grams.
