13+3k=11
-Move constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
3k=11-13
Calculate the difference
3k=-2
Divide both sides by 3
K= -2/3
The markup is 8%, meaning it costs 8% more.
The starting price is 100%.
Therefore, the markup is 108% of $12.
If we multiply 12 by 108% (1.08), we will get our answer of $12.96
Answer:
x=26
Step-by-step explanation:
1/3(x-2)=1/5(x+4)+2
x-2=3/5x+42/5
5x-10=3x+42
5x-3x-10=42
5x-3=42+10
2x=42+10
2x=52
x=26
It would be an 8 percent discount because 115 is 92 percent of 125.
