<em>A store charges $414 for a small refrigerator, the price consists of the refrigerator's original cost to the store plus a profit 15% what was the refrigerator's original cost to the store?</em>
Step one:
given data
we are told that the price of the small refrigerator contains both the original price and 15% profit
mathematically
$414= original price + 15% profit
Step two:
let us solve for 15% of 414
=(15/100)*414
=0.15*414
=$62.1
This shows that the profit is $62.1
let the original price be x
$414= x + 62.1
solve for x
x=414-62.1
x=351.9
<u>The refrigerator's original cost to the store $351.9</u>
The base is x.
The height is 5 feet more than the base, so it's x+5.
The area of a parallelogram is the product of its base and its height. The area is 204 square feet.

The length of the base of a parallelogram must be a positive number, so x=12.

The base is 12 feet long, the height is 17 feet long.
650-15%= 552.50 (they pay the manager 97.50) which leaves 552.50 profit 10% goes to ST(55.25 to the ST) which is 497.25 left for the band
