Answer:
Explanation:
You can convert the percent markup into a multiplicative factor in this way:
Base price: 15,800 . . . (cost to the seller)
Percent mark up: 115% . . . (based on the cost to the seller)
Sale price: 15,800 + 115% of x = 15,800 + 115 × 15,800 /100 =
= 15,800 + 1.15 × 15,800 = 15,800 (2.15) = 33,970
The markup is:
- Markup = price paid by the seller - cost to the seller = 33,970 - 15,800 = 18,170 (notice that this is 115% of 15,800)
And <em>the percent markup based on the sale price is</em>:
- % = (markup / sale price) × 100 = (18,700 / 33,970) × 100 =
= 53.49 %
Rounding to the nearest tenth percent that is 53.5 %.

Answer:
8x+19=9x+9
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
(8x + 19) = (9x + 9)
Reorder the terms:
(19 + 8x) = (9x + 9)
Remove parenthesis around (19 + 8x)
19 + 8x = (9x + 9)
Reorder the terms:
19 + 8x = (9 + 9x)
Remove parenthesis around (9 + 9x)
19 + 8x = 9 + 9x
Solving
19 + 8x = 9 + 9x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-9x' to each side of the equation.
19 + 8x + -9x = 9 + 9x + -9x
Combine like terms: 8x + -9x = -1x
19 + -1x = 9 + 9x + -9x
Combine like terms: 9x + -9x = 0
19 + -1x = 9 + 0
19 + -1x = 9
Add '-19' to each side of the equation.
19 + -19 + -1x = 9 + -19
Combine like terms: 19 + -19 = 0
0 + -1x = 9 + -19
-1x = 9 + -19
Combine like terms: 9 + -19 = -10
-1x = -10
Divide each side by '-1'.
x = 10
Simplifying
x = 10
The answer should be $8 if you are trying to find the unit rate. All you have to do is divide 32 by 4 and you get 8. Hope that helped.
