Answer:
9.2
Step-by-step explanation:
To find if a series is either geometric or arithmetic:
it must satisfy this property:
Arithmetic:
a(n+1) - a(n) = const
Geometric:
a(n+1)/a(n) = const
In your case:
r1 = 7 -4 = 3
r2 = 12 - 7 = 5
r1 != r2 (not arirthmetic)
Geometric check:
r1 = 7/4
r2 = 12/7
r1 != r2 (not Geometric)
so neither.
To compare you should make the down part equal first
27/45 < 30/45
Slope = (3-(-7))/(-1-4)
= 10/(-5)
= -2
The slope is -2.
Answer:
A. $58.50
B. $80
C. No. The markup was 33 1/3%
Step-by-step explanation:
You are expected to know the relevant relationship is ...
cost + markup = selling price . . . . also called "store price" in this problem
___
A. The markup is 30% × $45 = $13.50, so the store price is ...
$45 + 13.50 = $58.50
___
B. When the 30% markup is added to the 100% cost, the selling price is 130% of the cost, or 1.30 times the cost. Here you have ...
$104 = 1.30 × cost
$104/1.3 = cost = $80 . . . . . divide by the coefficient of cost
___
C. The markup is $100 -75 = $25, so the markup percentage based on cost is ...
$25/$75 × 100% = 33 1/3%
This is not 30%.
