A clothing store buys a sweater for $15 before marking it up by 1/5 before selling it for a profit. What is the markup on the sweater?

The number is -136.

Two or more expressions with an equal sign are defined as an equation.

Let the number be x.

Given that, two more than the number, x, is 15 less than the product of 7/8 and the number, therefore:

x + 2 = (7/8)x - 15

x - (7/8)x = -15 -2

x/8 = -17

x = -136

Hence, the number is -136.

Answer:

range is { - 21, 4 , 14 }

Step-by-step explanation:

the domain gives the value of x , the input

the range is the corresponding values of y, the output

substitute values of x from the domain into the function

x = - 2 : y = - 5(- 2) + 4 = 10 + 4 = 14

x = 0 : y = - 5(0) + 4 = 0 + 4 = 4

x = 5 : y = - 5(5) + 4 = - 25 + 4 = - 21

then range is { - 21, 4 , 14 }

The slope is 0.003

A line's slope is determined by how its y coordinate changes in relation to how its x coordinate changes. y and x are the net changes in the y and x coordinates, respectively. Therefore, it is possible to write the

change in y coordinate with respect to the change in x coordinate as,

m = Δy/Δx where, m is the slope

Given:

the coordinates are (12000, 20) and (18000, 2)

so, slope= 18 / 6000

              = 0.003

The 3 in the thousandths place rounds down to 3, or stays the same, because the digit to the right in the ten thousandths place is 0.003.

The weight of the bicycle is 19.375 pounds.

In physics and engineering, the weight of an object refers to the gravitational force that pulls on it. Weight is frequently described as a scalar quantity that measures the gravitational force's strength.

The weight of the frame of the bicycle= 16 pounds

1 pound= 16 ounces

Therefore, 16 pounds= 16 x 16 = 256 ounces

The weight of one tire= 9 ounces

Therefore, the weight of two tires= 9 x 2 = 18 ounces

The weight of the seat= 12 ounces

The weight of handlebars= 24 ounces

Therefore, the total weight of the bicycle = 256 + 18 + 12 + 24                                                                              

                                                                     = 310 ounces

Compounded quarterly; annual interest rate is 7.875%

========================================================

Explanation:

Let's say we are depositing P = 100 dollars, and we leave it in the account for a timespan of t = 1 year.

This will apply for options A through E.

-------------------

If we go with option A, then we would have n = 1 and r = 0.08

Use the compound interest formula to get the following:

A = P*(1+r/n)^(n*t)

A = 100*(1+0.08/1)^(1*1)

A = 108

We'll have $108 dollars in the account at the end of 1 year if we go with option A. The amount of interest only is A-P = 108-100 = 8 dollars.

-------------------

For option B, we have: n = 4 and r = 0.07875

A = P*(1+r/n)^(n*t)

A = 100*(1+0.07875/4)^(4*1)

A = 108.110625948487

A = 108.11

So far option B is slightly better since you've earned an extra $0.11, aka 11 cents.

-------------------

For option C, we have: n = 4 and r = 0.07875

A = P*(1+r/n)^(n*t)

A = 100*(1+0.0775/12)^(12*1)

A = 108.031299777277

A = 108.03

This amount is less compared to the $108.11 with option B. Therefore, option B is still the best so far.

-------------------

For option D, we have: n = 52 and r = 0.07625

A = P*(1+r/n)^(n*t)

A = 100*(1+0.07625/52)^(52*1)

A = 107.917207523206

A = 107.92

This is worse compared to option C.

Option B is still the best so far.

-------------------

For option E, we have: n = 365 and r = 0.075

A = P*(1+r/n)^(n*t)

A = 100*(1+0.075/365)^(365*1)

A = 107.787584644

A = 107.79

---------------------

Here's a table comparing the balance after 1 year for options A through E. Those balances all have a starting point of $100 as the deposit.

[tex]\begin{array}{|c|c|} \cline{1-2}\text{Option} & \text{Balance after 1 year}\\\cline{1-2}A & \$108\\\cline{1-2}\boldsymbol{B} & \boldsymbol{\$108.11}\\\cline{1-2}C & \$108.03\\\cline{1-2}D & \$107.92\\\cline{1-2}E & \$107.79\\\cline{1-2}\end{array}[/tex]

Option B is the best choice earning the most ($108.11) if you deposit $100.

There's nothing special about the $100, so feel free to change it to something else to try other starting deposits. You'll find that option B will still provide the highest return.

B

Answer: 48 3/4 miles/hour.

Step-by-step explanation: To find Daniel's speed in miles per hour, we need to first convert the time he rollerbladed to hours. We can do this by dividing the number of minutes he rollerbladed by 60 minutes per hour, as follows:

time in hours = 4 minutes / 60 minutes/hour = 1/15 hours

We can then use the formula for speed, which is distance divided by time, to find Daniel's speed in miles per hour as follows:

speed in miles per hour = distance in miles / time in hours

speed in miles per hour = 3 1/4 miles / 1/15 hours

speed in miles per hour = 3 1/4 miles * 15 hours/1

speed in miles per hour = 48 3/4 miles/hour

Therefore, Daniel's speed in miles per hour was 48 3/4 miles/hour.

Answer:

Check explanation!

Step-by-step explanation:

Daniel  rollerbladed at 15 mph, we know this because 60 divided by 4 = 15 (number of minutes in an hour divided by his time = answer)

Answer:

z = 3.125 * x

Step-by-step explanation:

since y is 80 percent of z, we can represent it in the form of a ratio as 80:100.

Simplify it down: 80:100 = 8:10 = 4:5

therefore x:y = 2:5
and y:z = 4:5

"y" is common in both of these ratios. Therefore we now have to make the value of Y same in both of the ratios. Therefore we find the least common multiple of both the y values which is 5 and 4. It is 20.

Now we make the value of y in both the ratios 20. So we need to multiply 5 in 2:5 by 4. Since we multiplied one of the values by 4 we have to multiply the other one as well (2*4). Now our new ratio for x:y is 8:20. Do the same for the other ratio. the other ratio is 4:5. the y value here is 4. 4 needs to be multiplied by 5 to become 20. Therefore multiply 4 by 5 and multiply 5 by 4. our new ratio for y:z is 20:25

As  you can see both the y values are similar now.

x:y = 8:20

y:x = 20:25

therefore we can now write x:y:z as 8:20:25

that also means that x:z is now 8:25.

Now we know that when x is 8 z is 25. in this case. 8 and 25 are directly proportional.

therefore we can write an equation as
25 = k*8
k = 25/8

k = 3.125

therefore z = 3.125 * x

The similarity is that Sunni and Shia Muslims agree on the fundamental tenets of Islam, such as worshiping Allah as God, acknowledging Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) as the Prophet, and adhering to the Quran's teachings.

The difference is that Shia place a greater emphasis on Muhammad's family ancestry through a succession of Imams than Sunnis do on imitating the Prophet and his example.

All Shia and Sunni Muslims recognize the importance of the Quran; contrary to popular belief, Shi'a does not use a corrupted version of the Quran.

Shi'a and Sunni Muslims both use the Hadith, though they often prefer different collections of sayings.

They have different perspectives on imams. Imams are considered saints in Sunni Islam and must have a strong commitment to the Quran and Sunnah in order to be nominated. In Shia Islam, however, only God has the authority to name an imam. Only imams in Shia Islam have the authority to translate the Quran.
