It is very simple to figure out if you need help let me know! :)
Answer:
10.5 %
<u>Skills needed: Financial Math Essentials</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
1) First, before getting started, let's assume the price of the product is
. This variable will be used a lot throughout the problem (
).
2) Marking a price above means increasing the price in order to make money off of the purchased product. When raising something by
percent, the new price would be
.
---> In this case, the price increased by
percent.
This means that it would be: 
New price is: 
3) The shopkeeper is then offering a
percent discount off of this marked price. When offering a
percent discount price, the new price (with discount), expressed algebraically is: 
---> the expression above simplifies to 
In this case,
, 
---> 
This means that
, with discount, has been raised
.
10.5 % is the profit percent
(The profit percent being the final marked up price - purchased price)
Answer:there are 16 goats and 22 chickens.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of goats in the field.
Let y represent the number if chicken in the field.
After a quick count, you determine there are 38 heads and 108 feet in the field. A goat has one head. A chicken also has one head. It means that
x + y = 38
A goat has four legs. A chicken has 2 legs. It means that
4x + 2y = 108 - - - - - - - - - - - 1
Substituting x = 38 - y into equation 1, it becomes
4(38 - y) + 2y = 108
152 - 4y + 2y = 108
- 4y + 2y = 108 - 152
- 2y = - 44
y = - 44/ - 2
y = 22
x = 38 - y = 38 - 22
x = 16
The way we would answer the question would be to express it as
100-9(n-1) with n being the nth term of the pattern.
Why is this? We know we subtract 9 each time and START from 100.
Remember though that 100 is the first term in the sequence. So, we would have (n-1)*9 to subtract 0 from our 1st term and 9 from our second term.
Also, we have 9*(n-1) because we are just subtracting multiples of 9. It is always going to subtract by 9.
If you needed the answer here it is...
The answer to the problem would be
100-9(13-1)
= 100-9(12)
= 100-108
= -8
