A store marks up a laptop 50% from its original price of $299. What is the new price for the computer?

Answer:

$448.50

Step-by-step explanation:

"Marking up" an item by x% means to increase its price by x% of the original price.

Here, when marking up by 50%, you would multiply the original price by 1.5:

1.5*299 = $448.50

You wouldn't just multiply by .5 because that would only give you 50% of $299. You could multiply .5*299 and get $149.5, but then you'd have to add it to $299, which would get you $448.50 again!

The quicker way is to just multiply the original price by 1+x%.

Hope this helps!

Determine the temperature of 2.6 moles of gas contained in a 5.00-L vessel at a pressure of 1.2atm.
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

28.108 K.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Pressure (P)= 1.2atm

           Number of moles (n)=  2.6 moles

           Volume (V)= 5.00-L

Now finding the temperature (T).

Formula; T= \frac{P\times V}{n\times R}

R is a constant factor which makes other factors work together.

There is a numerical value for R which we use is 0.0821 \times \frac{L.atm}{mole.K}

∴ Temperature (T)= \frac{1.2\times 5}{2.6\times 0.0821 \frac{L.atm}{mol.K} }

⇒ Temperature (T)= \frac{6}{0.21346} = 28.1083\ K

∴ Temperature is 28.108 K

Karyn proofreads 15 pages in 2 hours for $40.
OLEGan [10]
Hi there.

Since she reads 15 pages in 2 hours, all we have to do to find out how much she reads in 1 hour is divide.

15/2 = 7.5

7.5 pages/hour

Same applies to the pay

40/2 = 20

$20/hour

Karyn proofreading rate is 7.5 pages per hour. Karyn receives on average $20 per hour.

Furkat [3]
<h3>Answer:  16</h3>

Work Shown:

range = max - min = 10 - (-6) = 10 + 6 = 16

The range is the distance from the smallest item to the largest. Use of a number line might help sort out the values to see which is the smallest and largest.

Answer:

P(B and D) = 0.35

Step-by-step explanation:

It is a probability tree diagram. Here to find P(B and D):

apply method:

P(A and B) = P(A) × P(B)

Here given:

  • P(B) = .5
  • P(D) = .7

So, P(B and D):

  • P(B) × P(D)
  • .5 × .7
  • .35 ≈ 0.35
