A department store buys 500 shirts at a cost of $3,500 and sells them at a selling price of $10 each. Find the percent markup.

1 answer:

5 0

Answer: 30 percent.

Step-by-step explanation: First do 3,500 divided by 10 to find the cost of each shirt. Second subtract 7 from 10 which is 3. Then divide 3 by ten because you always divide by the amount being paid for. So 3 divided by 10 is .3 then multiply .3 by 100 which is 30 and that is your percent markup

Find the value of x.. is the answer 103? if not how do you figure it our

scoundrel [369]

The angle diagonal to 103° is equal to 103°. So here's your equation:

(103+14x+7)°=180°

So now you can simplify:

110°+14x=180°

now subtract 110 on both sides

14x=70°

now divide by 14 on both sides

so the answer is x=5°

If (a,b) is an ordered pair for x-y=5, is (b,a) also a solution?

alina1380 [7]

The answer is no. Because solution (a,b) means x=a, y=b.and we have a-b=5. And (b,a) would mean x=b and y=a but then x-y=b-a=-(a-b)=-5≠5. So the pair (b,a) is not a solution.
