Answer:
78/5
Step-by-step explanation:
1/5 5x + 12 = 18
Part A:
Given that <span>the mattress is sold for 50% off of the retail price, let the retail price of the mattress be x, then
50% of x = 1200
⇒ 0.5x = 1200
⇒ x = 1200 / 0.5 = 2400
Therefore, </span><span>the retail price of the mattress, before the discount is $2,400.
Part B:
Given that </span><span>the store marks up the retail price to 150% of the wholesale price. Let the whole sale price be p, then
(100% + 150%) of p = 2400
250% of p = 2400
2.5p = 2400
p = 2400 / 2.5 = 960.
Therefore, </span><span>the wholesale price, before the markup was $960</span>

Answer: 0.5</h3>
========================================================
Explanation:
The ultimate goal is to find the value for lowercase c, or find the length of side c. So we'll use the portion sin(C)/c as part of the law of sines.
We don't know the value of lowercase 'a', so we'll ignore the sin(A)/a portion.
This leaves sin(B)/b
We see that one side is 2 cm long, so this means b = 2. The angle opposite this is 105 degrees, so B = 105.
The angle opposite side c is 15 degrees, so C = 15.
The lowercase letters represent side lengths, while the uppercase letters are angles.
--------------------------
We have enough to apply the law of sines to solve for side c.
sin(B)/b = sin(C)/c
sin(105)/2 = sin(15)/c
c*sin(105) = 2*sin(15) ............. cross multiply
c = 2*sin(15)/sin(105) .............. dividing both sides by sin(105)
c = 0.53589838486224
c = 0.5
Side c is roughly 0.5 cm long.
Make sure your calculator is in degree mode.
