Answer:

  25%

Step-by-step explanation:

The markup is the difference between the selling price and the cost price.

  markup = (500)($10) - $4000 = $1000

Then the percent markup of the cost price is ...

  markup/(cost price) = $1000/$4000 × 100% = 25%

The percentage markup was 25%.

A storage closet holds twelve boxes stacked upon each other, with each box being 10 inches high. How many feet are there between
Vikentia [17]

Answer:5

Step-by-step explanation:there are 6 boxes between the top of the 3rd box and the bottom of the 10th box.

Since each box is 10 inches tall, the length of the 6 boxes sum up to 60 inches.

and since 12 inches =1 feet,

Then 60 inches = 5 feet

How to solve

Let "y" = the unknown number of feet's

12 inches = 1 feet

60 inches = y

Cross multiply

> 12×y =60×1

> 12y =60

Divide both sides by 12 since you want the value of "y".

> 12y÷12=60÷12

So 12 cancels out leaving the final answer to be:

> y=5

The width of a rectangle is the length minus 2 units. the area of the rectangle is 35 units
Mariana [72]

Answer:

Length=7units\\\\Width=5units

Step-by-step explanation:

Width=(Length-2) units

W=(L-2) units

Area of the rectangle= 35 square units

Area = length* Width

35= L*(L-2)\\\\35=L^2-2L

Subtracting 35 both sides:

L^2-2L-35=0

Solving the quadratic equation for 'L' ;

Using factorization:

L^2+5L-7L-35=0

Taking common from the equation :

L(L+5)-7(L+5)=0\\\\(L+5)(L-7)=0\\\\L+5=0\\\\L=-5

OR

L-7=0\\\\L=7

The length cannot be negative, therefore Length(L)= 7

Width=Length-2\\\\=7-2\\\\=5 units

Length=7units\\\\Width=5units
