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
dividing both sides by 1.6
x= 1.25
So original price was 1.25 dollars.
Let x = weight of adult meerkat, y=weight of baby meerkat, Find y.
x=0.776 kg
y+7.47hectogram=x=0.776
Since 1 hectogram = 0.1 kg,
Therefore the weight of baby meerkat is, y= 0.029 kg
So the original price is "x".
the discounted price by 10% is P(x) = 0.9x.
the price minus a $150 coupon is C(x) = x - 150.
so, if you go to the store, the item is discounted by 10%, so you're really only getting out of your pocket 90% of that, or 0.9x, but!!! wait a minute!! you have a $150 coupon, and you can use that for the purchase, so you're really only getting out of your pocket 0.9x - 150, namely the discounted by 10% and then the saving from the coupon.
C( P(x) ) = P(x) - 150
C( P(x) ) = 0.9x - 150
You could rewrite this as double brackets, as you are multiplying together two sets of two terms. It would then look like:
(8i + 6j)(4i + 5j)
and you can expand by multiplying together all of the terms
8i × 4i = 32i²
8i × 5j = 40ij
6j × 4i = 24ij
6j × 5j = 30j²
To get your final answer, you then just need to add together all of the like terms, and get 32i² + 30j² + 64ij
I hope this helps!
<span>The number of dollars collected can be modelled by both a linear model and an exponential model.
To calculate the number of dollars to be calculated on the 6th day based on a linear model, we recall that the formula for the equation of a line is given by (y - y1) / (x - x1) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1), where (x1, y1) = (1, 2) and (x2, y2) = (3, 8)
The equation of the line representing the model = (y - 2) / (x - 1) = (8 - 2) / (3 - 1) = 6 / 2 = 3
y - 2 = 3(x - 1) = 3x - 3
y = 3x - 3 + 2 = 3x - 1
Therefore, the amount of dollars to be collected on the 6th day based on the linear model is given by y = 3(6) - 1 = 18 - 1 = $17
To calculate the number of dollars to be calculated on the 6th day based on an exponential model, we recall that the formula for exponential growth is given by y = ar^(x-1), where y is the number of dollars collected and x represent each collection day and a is the amount collected on the first day = $2.
8 = 2r^(3 - 1) = 2r^2
r^2 = 8/2 = 4
r = sqrt(4) = 2
Therefore, the amount of dollars to be collected on the 6th day based on the exponential model is given by y = 2(2)^(5 - 1) = 2(2)^4 = 2(16) = $32</span>
