Answer:
$1,682.70
Step-by-step explanation:
- Convert the percent into a decimal by multiplying by 0.01: the percent in this problem is 6.5%, so when you multiply by 0.01, you get 0.065
- Multiply the price by your new decimal: in this case, that would mean to multiply 1580 by 0.065, which gives you 102.7. <u>Keep in mind that this is just the tax, not your final answer.</u>
- Add the tax you just calculated to the original price: add 102.7 to 1580 to get 1,682.7. That is your final answer.
Retail price for a 24 dollar hat with a markup of 40% =
24 * .40 = 9.6
24 + 9.6 = $33.60 dollars
Answer:
y = 3x - 19
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b
Step 1: Define variables
Slope <em>m</em> = 3
Random point (5, -4)
Step 2: Plug in known variables
y = 3x + b
Step 3: Find <em>b</em>
-4 = 3(5) + b
-4 = 15 + b
b = -19
Step 4: Write linear equation
y = 3x - 19
a + b = 88 <span>
<span>
</span><span>ab = y
</span><span>
</span><span>a = 88 - b
</span><span>
</span><span>y = (88 - b)*b
</span>
<span>y = -b^2 + 88b
</span><span>
</span><span>Take the derivative and set equal to 0
</span><span>
</span><span>y' = -2b + 88 = 0
</span><span>
</span><span>2b = 88
</span>
<span>b = 44 </span></span>
<span><span>a=44</span></span>
<span><span> both numbers are 44</span></span>
