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! :)

How many significant digits are there in 17.0
svet-max [94.6K]
The answer is three significant figures. The 1 and the 7 are both significant, because they are non-zero quantities.
This is where significant figures gets a little more complicated, because if a zero is used as a placeholder (i.e. 0.00027 cm) then it is insignificant.
But in the case above, the zero isn't being used as a placeholder, and thus, is significant.

In a recent survey, 72 out of 100 consumers reported that they preferred plastic bags instead of paper bags for their groceries.
kupik [55]

Answer:

a) P=0.03

b) α=0.05

c) 0.72

d) 100

e) 0.72

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The P-value is the probability of the sample result. In this case the P-value is 0.03.

b) The level of significance is the threshold of probabilty for the null hypothesis to be reejcted or not. It is contrasted with the P-value to know if the effect is significant. In this case, the level of significance is 0.05.

NOTE: if it is a two-side test, the level of significance is 0.1 (two times 0.05).

c) The sample proportion is the one that results from the sample data. In this case, the sample proportion is 0.72.

p=72/100=0.72

d) The sample size is the amount of consumers reported. In this case is 100 customers.

e) The null value is 0.72 (equal to the sample proportion), because it is tested if there is no difference between the population proportion and the sample proportion.

If I have a 62% in a class, what percentage do I need to get on a 50% weighted test grade to have at least a 70% in the class?
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

78%

Step-by-step explanation:

70 = 0.50 (62) + 0.50 (x)

70 = 31 + 0.5x

39 = 0.5x

x = 78

You must get at least a 78% on the test to have at least 70% in the class.

Geometry help please! Match the reasons with the statements.
SSSSS [86.1K]

Given:

∠PRS and ∠VUW are supplementary.

To prove:

Line TV || Line QS

Solution:

Step 1: Given

∠PRS and ∠VUW are supplementary.

Step 2: By the definition of supplementary angles

m\angle {PRS}+m\angle {VUW}=180^{\circ}

Step 3: Angles forming a linear pair sum to 180°

m\angle {PRS}+m\angle {SRU}=180^{\circ}

Step 4: By transitive property of equality

step 2 = step 3

m\angle {PRS}+m\angle {VUW}=m\angle {PRS}+m\angle {SRU}

Step 5: By algebra cancel the common terms in both side.

{m} \angle {VUW}={m} \angle{SRU}

Step 6: By converse of corresponding angles postulate

Line TV || Line QS

Hence proved.

One day at 3:00 a.m., the temperature was -13°F in Kodiak, Alaska. At 10:00 a.m., the temperature was 22°F. What was the average
suter [353]
-13 to 0 = 13 degrees changed. 0 to 22 is 22 degrees changed. 13 + 22 = 35 degree change.

10-3 = 7.

So there was a change of 35 degrees across 7 hours

35/7 = 5 degrees per hour.
