Answer:

The answer is B. $3.85.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because, first if we get the percentage that the shoes were marked up by, we get that they were marked up to $35, because 40% of $25 is $10 and $25 + $10 = $35.

Then, we find the percentage of $35 that she earned. In order to do this, we see what 11% of $35 is. We get $3.85, because 10% of $35 is $3.50, and 1% of $35 is $0.35. $3.50 + $0.35 = $3.85.

This is why the answer is B. $3.85.

If 4x+7=12 what is the value of 8x+3
Valentin [98]

There is actually 2 ways to solve this, I will show you both.

The first is obvious, solve for x in the first one, and plug it into the 2nd one and get the answer

4x + 7 = 12

4x = 5

x = \frac{5}{4}

8(\frac{5}{4}) + 3

2 * 5 + 3

10 + 3

13

The 2nd option is to manipulate the 4x + 7 to be 8x + 3

4x + 7 = 12

start by moving the 7 over

4x = 5

multiply both sides by 2

8x = 10

and add 3 to both sides

8x + 3 = 13

What is the sum of the geometric series 2^0 + 2^1 + 2^2 + 2^3 + 2^3 + 2^4 + … + 2^9?
mars1129 [50]
The nth term is
an=a1(r)^(n-1)
an=1(2)^(n-1)
a1=1
r=2

the sum of a geometric seequence is
S_{n}=\frac{a_{1}(1-r^{n})}{1-r}
a1=1
r=2
we want to find S_{10} (since we minus 1, the highest exponet is 9 so add 1 to make it correct)

S_{10}=\frac{1(1-2^{10})}{1-2}
S_{10}=\frac{(1-1024}{-1}
S_{10}=\frac{(-1023}{-1}
S_{10}=1023
