Cost Price of land in 1948 = $124 * 66 = $ 8184

Selling Price of land in 1967 = $15787.25 * 66 = $ 1041958.50


Hence, Rise in price = $1041958.50 - $8184 = $1033810.50

Percentage Markup =
\frac{1033810.50}{8184}  \:  \times 100
Solving You'll get

Percentage Markup = 12687.50 %

Okay. So to find the percentage rate of markup from 1948 to 1967, we can write and solve a proportion. It would be set up like this: change/original = x/100. This means put the distance between two numbers and put it over the initial amount. We'll do this step by step. First off, we'll find the total overall cost. In 1948, it costed $124 dolalrs per acre. 124 * 66 is 8,184. In 1967, it costed $15,787.25 per acre. Multiply that number by 66 to get 1,041,958.5. Let's subtract the total prices. 1,041,958.5 - 8184 is 1,033,774.5. We can set up the proportion like this

 1,033,774.5/8184 = x/100

$8,184 is the initial price back in 1948, before the other price of $1,033,774.50. Now, what we do is cross multiplt the values. 1,033,774.5 * 100 is 103,377,450. 8,184 * x is 8,184x. We have 103,377,450 = 8,184x. Now, divide each side by 8,184 to isolate the x. 8,184x/8,184 cancels x out. 103,377,450/8,184  is 12,631.65323 or 12,631.7 when rounded to the nearest tenth. There. The percent rate of markup from 1948 to 1967 is approx. 12,631.7%

A ferry will safely accommodate 68 tons of passenger cars. Assume that the mean weight of a passenger car is 1.8 tons with stand
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

P (Z

Step-by-step explanation:

We want the probability that the 35 cars are loaded onto the ferry. Therefore:

Since  

μ=1.8  and  σ=0.5  we have:

P(X<35 )=P ( X−μ<35−1.8 )=P((X−μ)/σ<(35−1.8)/0.5)

Since  

(x−μ)/σ=Z and  

(35-1.8)/0.5=66.4

we have:

P (X

Use the standard normal table to conclude that:

P (Z

Demarco and Tanya have received information about three separate mortgage offers. In two or three paragraphs, describe your reco
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

Mortgage option (3) would be best suited for them.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mortgage option (1) and (2) are more or less the same since, since even if Damarco and Tanya down payments $34,000 (20% of the purchase price), they need to pay the interest for 30 years for both of the cases and even if he pays  about $750   monthly (as for option (1)) or about  $ 9000 annually (as  for option (2))  both may actually be more or less the same amount  since, the annual rate of interest in (2) may increase from the initial rate of 3.5% (but it is very unlikely to increase to over 5%) and option (1) has an annual  fixed rate of interest of 4.25%.

Now, in the option (3) the interest is to be paid for 8 years and the annual rate of interest is also relatively low (only 4%) and if they pay about $18,000 annually with a down-payment of $ 34,000 and  repay the rest of the amount at the end of 8 years,(which would be less than $ 35,000)  they can easily clear their mortgage. Hence, for option (3) they would need to pay lowest total amount and for lowest time to clear the mortgage among the three options. Hence, this would be best suited option for them.

Hailey paid \$13$13dollar sign, 13 for 1\dfrac3{7} \text{ kg}1 7 3 ​ kg1, start fraction, 3, divided by, 7, end fraction, start
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

1kg of salami cost $9.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Hailey paid $13 for 1 3/7 kg of sliced salami.

What was the cost per kilogram of salami?

Cost of 1 3/7 kg of sliced salami=$13

1 3/7 kg=10/7kg

Let x=1 kg of sliced salami

10/7 kg of x=$13

$13=10/7x

13=10/7*x

x=13 ÷ 10/7

=13×7/10

=91/10

=9.1

x=$9.1

Therefore, 1kg of salami cost $9.1
