A retailer sells a refrigerator for a list price of $1,200. The retailers cost was $850. What is the percentage of the markup?
matrenka [14]

Answer:

41%

Step-by-step explanation:

1200-850=350

350 is the markup, now we need the percentage

the orginal price was 850 so we just need to divide 350 by 850

we get 0.4117...

convert that to a percentage and we have 41% markup

E varies directly with the square root of C. If E=40 when C=25 find: E when C= 49
tiny-mole [99]

Answer: E = 56

Step-by-step explanation:

E is proportional to √C

To remove proportionality, introduce a constant (k).

E = k × √C

From question,

E = 40 and C = 25

So,

40 = k ×√25

40 = k × 5

k = 8

Now,

C = 49

k = 8

E = ?

E = k√C

E = 8 × √49

E = 8 × 7

E = 56

Rosey knows that she needs a minimum of $1776 each month to pay all of her expenses. If she works 37 hours a week, with 4 weeks
solong [7]

Answer: $12 an hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Rosey works 37 hours a week and 4 weeks in a month.

Total hours are:

= 37 * 4

= 148 hours

In order to at least cover the $1,776 in expenses she incurs every month, Rosey's hourly pay must be:

= expenses / working hours in month

= 1,776 / 148

= $12 an hour
