Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
%profit = selling price - cost price/cost price * 100
If Mr. Wayne marks up every item with a profit of 25% and x be his cost for a calculator, the expression for the selling price can be gotten by substituting the parameters into the formula;
25 = sp-cp/cp * 100
25/100 = sp-x/x
0.25 = sp-x/x
cross multiply
0.25x = sp-x
add x to both sides
0.25x+x = sp-x+x
1.25x = sp
selling price = 1.25x
<em>Hence an expression for the selling price of the calculator is 1.25x</em>
<em></em>
b) If Mr wayne paid $25, the selling price is derived by substituing x = $25 into the expression in (a)
selling price = 1.25x
selling price = 1.25($25)
selling price = $31.25
c) If the selling price is $86, to get the cost of the calculator, substitute the selling price into the expression in (a)
selling price = 1.25x
$86= 1.25x
x is the cost price of the calculator
divide both sides by 1.25
$86/1.25= 1.25x/1.25
x = $68.8
<em>Hence Wayne paid $68.8 for a calculator that he sells for $86.</em>
The answer is 27 but I am not sure I hope my calculations ain't wrong
$19.4
Step-by-step explanation:
Simple Interest=SI
Principle(deposit)=P(97)
Rate= R(4/100=0.04)
Time= T(5)
SI=P•R•T
SI=97x0.04x5
SI=19.4
Interest earned = $19.4
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Divide the area (in square units) by Pi (approximately 3.14159).
2. Take the square root of the result. This is the radius.
3. Now double the radius to get the diameter
