(new - original)/original = mark up

(78.08-64)/64= mark up

14.08/64 =mark up

.22 = mark up

multiply by 100 to get to a percent

mark up = 22 percent

How to solve (8x-30)+(6x+10)=180
lozanna [386]
Add the like terms. So I'll add the variables. 8x+6x is 14x. Now add whole numbers. 30+10 is 40. Our new expression we'll be 14x+40=180. Subtract 40 from 180. 180-40=140. Now we have the expression 14x=140. 140 divided by 14 is 10. So x is 10.

The area of four walls of a rectangular room is 96m2 and its height is 4m.
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

<h2>The answer is 56 m</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2l + 2w

where

l is the length

w is the width

To find the area we must first find the length of the rectangle using it's area.

That's

Area = length × height

From the question

Area = 96 m²

height = 4 m

So we have

96 = 4l

Divide both sides by 4

length = 24 m

Now we have

Perimeter = 2(24) + 2(4)

= 48 + 8

We have the final answer as

<h3>56m</h3>

Hope this helps you

Margaret deposits $1,000 in a savings account that pays 1.4% interest compounded
ozzi

Answer:

The balance after 1 year is;

$1,014.05

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this, we use the compound interest formula

That will be ;

A =P (1 + r/n)^nt

A is the amount generated which we want to calculate

r is the rate = 1.4% = 0.014

P is the amount deposited = $1,000

n is the number of times it is compounded annually which is 2 (semi-annually means 2 times in a year)

this the number of years which is 1

we have this as:

A = 1,000( 1 + 0.014/2)^(2*1)

A = 1,000(1 + 0.007)^2

A = 1,000(1.007)^2

A = $1,014.05

As a first step in solving the system shown, Yumiko multiplies both sides of the equation 2x – 3y = 12 by 6. By what factor shou
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Yumiko should multiply the other equation by 3.

If she adds the two equations she would be left with the variable 'x'.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the two equations are as follows:

$ 2x - 3y = 12 \hspace{5mm} \hdots (1) $

$ 5x + 6y = 18 \hspace{5mm} \hdots (2) $

It is given that she multiplies the first equation by 6. Therefore, (1) becomes

$ 12x - 18y = 72 \hspace{15mm} \hdots (a) $

Now, note that the sign of the variable 'y' is negative. So, if we make the co-effecient of 'y' equal in both the cases, add them it would result in the elimination of the variable 'y'.

The co-effecient of y in Equation (2) is 6. To make it 18 like it is in Equation (1), we multiply throughout by 3.

Therefore, Equation (2) becomes:

$ 15x + 18y = 54 \hspace{5mm} \hdots (b) $

Now, we add Equation (a) and Equation (b).

$ \implies 12x - 18y + 15x + 18y = 72 + 54 $

$ \implies 27x = 126 $

Factor: 3

Equation: 27x = 126
