A 15% percent markup means that the typewriter cost was increased by 15%, or 0.15 by moving the decimal 2 places to the left. If the original price was x, and 15% of it is 0.15*x, we can add them up to get 1.15*x=129.95. Dividing both sides by 1.15, we get x=113 dollars

Sale price=129.95
Mark up=15%
x=at cost price to ABC
Set up proportion:
129.95 x
--------- = ---------- (Got 1 from 100% which is the cost to ABC and 1.15 from 100%
1.15 1 +15% which is the cost to customer then changed to
decimal form.) Cross multiply
129.95=1.15x
129.95/1.15=1.15x/1.15
113=x
Cost to ABC is $113

Kiran read for x minutes, and Andre read for 58 more than that. Write an equation that relates the number of minutes Kiran read
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

0.017y=0.017x+0.97

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that,

number of minutes read by Kiran is = x minutes.

number of minutes read by Andre is = y minutes.

Andre read for 58 minute more than that of Kiran.

Converting minute to hour we get,

x\text{ minutes}=\dfrac{x}{60}=0.017x\text{ hour}

y\text{ minutes}=\dfrac{y}{60}=0.017y\text{ hour}

58\text{ minutes}=\dfrac{58}{60}=0.97\text{ hour}

So the relationship between x and y will be,

0.017y=0.017x+0.97

X+2y=10 6y=--3x+30 Use algebraic rules of equations to predict the solution to the system of equations.
MaRussiya [10]
X + 2y = 10 . . . (1)
6y = -3x + 30 . . . (2)

From (2), 3x + 6y = 30
3(x + 2y = 10)
3 x (1)

Since, the second equation is a multiple of the first equation, the system will have an infinitely number of solutions.
