Answer:

a. $49

b. $74.28

c. No

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a. The store price is

= Purchase price + markup

= $35 + $35 × 40%

= $35 + $14

= $49

b. The price paid is

Since there is a markup of 40% and when it is added to 100% of cost so the selling price is 140% of the cost or 1.40 of the cost

Now the price paid is

$104 = 1.40 × cost

So, the cost is

= $104 ÷ 1.40

= $74.28

c. Now the markup is

= $100 - $75

= $25

The markup percentage is

= $25 ÷ $75

= 33.33%

No the store does not markup the price by 40%

Simplify the rational Expression <br>​
qaws [65]

Answer:

\frac{x^2+2x}{x-3}

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to factor out numerator and denominator in order to simplify the rational expression by cancelling  common factors.

Numerator :  x^3 - 4 x = x (x^2 - 4) = x (x - 2) (x + 2)

Denominator (factoring by grouping):

x^2 - 5 x + 6 = x^2 - 3 x - 2 x + 6 = x (x - 3) - 2 (x - 3) = (x - 3) (x - 2)

Then we can cancel out the common factor (x - 2) in both numerator and denominator, leading to:

x (x + 2) / (x - 3) = (x^2 + 2)/ (x-3)

\frac{x^2+2x}{x-3}
