Sue’s Corner Market has a markup of 60% on bottled water. If the market sells a bottle of water for $2, find the original amount
lakkis [162]

Markup is the amount added to the cost price of goods to cover overhead and profit.

Sue’s Corner Market has a markup of 60% on bottled water.

Let us say original price was $x.

Now price after markup is $2.

So we can make an equation like:

original price + markup price = price after markup

x + 60% of x =2

x + 0.6x =2

1.6x =2

dividing both sides by 1.6

x= 1.25

So original price was 1.25 dollars.

Mrs. Nestler enjoys listening to classical music. She has the following audio CDs by her favorite composers in her collection: 4
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

10.55% probability

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

The order in which the CDs are chosen is not important. So we use the combinations formula to solve this question.

1 Bach CD, from a set of 4.

1 Beethoven CD, from a set of 6.

1 Brahms CD, from a set of 3.

1 Handel CD, from a set of 2.

So, D=144

4 CDs from a set of 4+6+3+2 = 15.

So, T= 1365

p= D/T= 144/1365 = 0.1055

10.55% probability that she will choose one by each composer

You need to write an essay that has at least 500 words you have written 285 words so far right and solve an inequality that Reec
andrezito [222]

Answer:

The minimum number of words left to write is 215

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

w -----> the number of words left to write

we know that

The number of words left to write plus the words written so far must be greater than or equal to 500 words

Remember that the word "at least" means "greater than or equal to"

so

w+285\geq 500                

Solve for w                        

Subtract 285 both sides        

w\geq 500-285\\w\geq 215

The minimum number of words left to write is 215

Equation 1: 70% of A = 0.7a

Equation 2: 35% of B = 0.35a

Equation 3 = (Equation 2) • 2

Equation 3: 70% of B = 0.7a
