A store owner buys a case of 144 pens for $28.80. He sells the pens for $0.40 each. The owner claims that they marked the pens up by 50% before selling them. Prove that the owner calculated their markup correctly. If they did not, how much of a markup actually occurred?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: $0.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The owner buys 144 pens for $28.80 i.e. each pen costs

[tex]\dfrac{28.80}{144}=\$0.2[/tex]

owner sells the pen at $0.4 i.e. price marked up by

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{0.4-0.2}{0.2}\times 100=100\%[/tex]

So, the claim of the owner is incorrect

The actual increase in the price to get 50% markup

[tex]\Rightarrow 0.2\times (1+0.5)=\$0.3[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

I think the correct answer is....... The measure of center for table 1 is 61, 62, 58, and 57 inches. The most kids had the same number of inches in this category.

I'm not 100% sure so try at your own risk

Have a great day!

The center of measures of table 1 height (task1) are Mean of heights of siblings are 58.29. Median of the height of 24 siblings are 61.5. Mode of the height 24 siblings 57,58,61,62 are the heights in inches.

What is Measures of center?

Measures of center of data set is also "a way of describing data set. The two most widely used measures of the center is mean and median".

What is mean?

Mean is the process of "adding all values and then divided by total number of values".

What is median?

Median is the "process of arranging data value in ascending or descending order and then divided data set into two if 'n' is odd then middle  point is the median or if 'n' is even then sum of two mid value and then divided by two".

What is  Mode?

Mode can be one, "two or more in the given data set. The number or data point which have more frequency is taken as mode".

According to the question,

Measures of center is the most appropriate for the data in Table 1 (Height) in Task 1.

Total number of frequency = N = 1+3++3+2+1+3+3+2+2+2+1+1 =24. Number of siblings n =12

Mean = ∑(Height of inches × Frequency of height)/Total number of frequency.

^ the 'p' represents pounds.

Step 2: Subtract 40.62 from both sides

49.38 = 8.23p

First of all, a journey refers to traveling from one place to another. When it comes to journeys, train journeys take the top spot. A train journey certainly is a wonderfully joyous occasion. Furthermore, train journeys fill individuals with a feeling of intense excitement. This mode of the journey is best when the travel distance is long. A train journey creates an aura that cannot be experienced with other types of journeys.
My Experience of Journey by Train
I have always been an avid supporter of train journeys. My involvement with train journeys began in childhood. I live in Lucknow and from here I have undertaken many train journeys. Furthermore, since childhood, I have paid several visits to the hill station of Almora to meet my relatives. Almora is a hill station located in the state of Uttarakhand. Most noteworthy, Almora is situated in the Himalayan mountain region. Due to this, trains cannot travel directly to Almora. Consequently, Kathgodam is the last town station accessible by trains before the mountain range begins.
The trip from Lucknow to kathgodam is quite a lively experience. I have always ensured the reservation of my seats beforehand. So, my train journey begins from Lucknow railway station. As the train undergoes motion and leaves the Lucknow railway station, my excitement begins to rise. Moreover, as the train gathers speed, a thrilling feeling overtakes me.
My train journey from Lucknow to Kathgodam is probably 8-10 hours duration. However, I enjoy every minute of it in spite of the journey being so long. Furthermore, all along the journey, one can purchase items of food and drinks. I almost always purchase meals and refreshments at least twice in the journey.
When slumber overtakes me, I make use of the sleeping berth. I personally find sleeping on the train berth very comfortable. When I wake after a deep sleep, mountains are visible from a distance. Moreover, as the train approaches Kathgodam with menacing speed, the view of mountains gets bigger and bigger. Also, my amusement greatly rises as I see the Himalayas draw closer. Finally, as the train stops at Kathgodam, my delightful train journey comes to an end.
Why Do I Like to Travel by Train?
Comfort is one of the biggest advantages of a train journey. Most noteworthy, one can move freely in a train cabin. Furthermore, in trains, there is a possibility of an ample foot room. Moreover, trains offer comfortable sleeping berths. All of this makes the train journey a relaxing experience.
Beautiful sightseeing is another noteworthy benefit of train journeys. As the train travels, one can enjoy the views of the countryside, farms, forests, factories, etc. This makes train journeys more comprehensive than journeys by air or road.
Train journeys offer a variety of opportunities to pass time. Furthermore, the train offers a sociable environment. In train journeys, conversations between passengers almost always take place. One can make new friends with traveling passengers on the train easily. Also, one can spend time in a handsome manner on a train journey. In a train journey, one can spend time reading something, listening to music, watching videos, sleeping/resting comfortably, etc.
To sum it up, train journeys are truly one of a kind. The train journey offers uniqueness like no other journey. Most noteworthy, the charm of such a journey is unmatchable. The train journey certainly offers an unforgettable rich experience.

what is the ratio for 0.875?

Answers

i need more information to give you the correct answer on this. can you insert a picture or something?

The simplified ratio for 0.875 is 7:8 .

To express the ratio for 0.875, we need to convert the decimal value to a ratio form.
