<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: 5, 8
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
The difference between 3 times a number and -8 is BETWEEN 23 and 32
Note: "difference" means subtraction --> 3x - (-8) --> 3x + 8
23 < 3x + 8 < 32
15 < 3x < 24 <em> subtracted 8 from all 3 sides</em>
--> 5 < x < 8 <em>divided 3 from all 3 sides</em>
