Find the selling price of a $20 item after a 20% markup.

Mathematics
1 answer:
nevsk [136]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

$24

Step-by-step explanation:

For a markup, use the formula <em>a = ( 1 + p ) × w. </em>

!!! Remember, <em>a </em>is the selling price, and <em>w </em>is the original price !!!

!!! The <em>p </em>is the percent in decimal form. 20% as a decimal is 0.20 (move the decimal twice to the left) !!!

<em />

Inserting the values, it should look like <em>a = ( 1 + 0.20 ) × 20 </em>

<em>a = 1.20 × 20 </em>

<em>a = 24</em>

<em />

Hence, the new selling price is $24.

Hope this helps! :)

When solving a system of equations of A and B, we get no solution. When solving B and C, the solution is (0,3). When solving A a
Aliun [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

How do we set about finding the points in which two graphs y = f(x) and y = g(x) intersect?

We already know how to find where the graph of f(x) cuts the x−axis. That’s where y = 0. We calculate it by solving the equation  f(x) = 0 .

When the graphs of y = f(x) and  y = g(x)  intersect , both graphs have exactly the same x and y values. So we can find the point or points of intersection by solving the equation  f(x) = g(x). The solution of this equation will give us the x value(s) of the point(s) of intersection. We can then find the y value by putting the value for x that we have found into one of the original equations. That is by calculating either f(x) or g(x).

Example 1 

Calculate the point of intersection of the two lines f(x) = 2x − 1 and g(x) = x + 1.  First let’s look at a graph of the two functions. We can see the point of intersection is (2, 3).



We calculate the point of intersection by solving the equation f(x) = g(x). That is:

    2x − 1 = x + 1

    2x − x = 1 + 1

            x = 2

The y coordinate can now be found by calculating f(2):

    f(2) = 2×2 − 1 = 3

The point of intersection is (2, 3).

The example shows that we can find the point of intersection in two ways.

Either graphically, by drawing the two graphs in the same coordinate system, or algebraically by solving the equation such as the one in the above example.

Solving an equation graphically is easy with a graphical calculator or a computer program such as Excel.

Some equations cannot be solved algebraically but we can find solutions that are correct to as many significant figures as we want by using computers and calculators

Larre used the visual model to show what fraction of an hour he spent outside. He wants to break the next hour into two times as
klasskru [66]

First, identify what fracion of an hour Larre spent outside using the model.

Since the square is divided in 4 equal parts, then the denominator of the fraction that Larre wants to represent is 4.

On the other hand, since 2 of those 4 parts are colored, then the numerator of the fraction that Larre wants to represent is 2.

Then, the fraction represented by the visual model is:

\frac{2}{4}

To find the answer, find an equivalent fraction by multiplying both the numerator and the denominator by 2:

\frac{2}{4}=\frac{2\times2}{4\times2}=\frac{4}{8}

Therefore, an equivalent fraction that can be made by multiplying the numerator and denominator by 2, is:

\frac{4}{8}

The correct choice is option C) 4/8.
