Answer:

$1080

Data given:

selling price (SP): $1209.60

percentage profit: 12%

To calculate out percentage profit

profit% = gain/cost price × 100

gain = selling price - cost price

hence we have:

(1209.60 - cost price)/cost price ×100 = 12

when we cross multiply

we have 12costprice = (1209.60×100)-(100×cost price)

12CP=120960-100CP

collect like terms

12CP+100CP = 120960

112CP=120960

divide both sides by the coefficient of CP

CP = $1080

scoundrel [369]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

A contrapositive statement is one that switches the hypothesis and conclusion of a conditional statement and negates both. In our hypothesis,

"If it is past 5:00 p.m., Megan’s office building is not empty", we shall break it into two statements and show the contarpositive of each like shown below.

Hypothesis                                             Contrapositive

Megan’s office building is not empty- Megan’s office building is empty

It is past 5:00 p.m  - it is not past 5:00 p.m

And thus the contrapositive statement becomes

If Megan’s office building is empty, then it is not past 5:00 p.m.
