Error Analysis: A store is instructed by corporate headquarters to put a markup of 67% on all items. An item costing $6 is displayed by the store manager at a selling price of $4. As an employee, you notice that this selling price is incorrect. Find the correct selling price. What was the manager's likely error?
Part 1: The correct selling price is (Round to the nearest dollar as needed.)
Part 2: What was the manager's likely error?
A. The manager set the selling price at the markup.
B. The manager subtracted the markup from the cost instead of adding it.
C. The manager set the selling price at the cost.
D. The manager added the markup to the cost instead of subtracting it.
Answer:
To find the correct selling price, we need to first find the cost of the item plus the markup. We can do this by multiplying the cost of the item by the markup percentage: $6 * 67% = $4.02. However, since the question asks us to round to the nearest dollar, we can round this number down to $4.
Therefore, the correct selling price is $4.
The manager's likely error was that they set the selling price at the cost (option C).
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct selling price is $10 and the manager set the selling price at the markup so option (A) is correct.
What is the percentage?The percentage is defined as a given amount in every hundred. It is a fraction with 100 as the denominator percentage is represented by the one symbol %.
The percentage is also called the indicating hundredths. Thus, 2% is two-hundredth, which means 2%=2/100=0.02.
As per the given,
Cost of item = $6
Markup = 67%
67% of $6 ⇒ 0.67 x 6 = $4.02
Add the markup in the cost = $6 + $4.02 = $10.02
Round to nearest dollars = $10.2 ≈ $10.
The manager put $4 which is a markup instant of the selling price of $10.
Hence "The correct selling price is $10 and the manager set the selling price at the markup".

Step-by-step explanation:
\(2(12 \times 2 + 10 \times 2 + 12 \times 10) + 6 \times 3 \times 2 + 8 \times 3 \times 2\)
\( = 2(164) + 36 + 48\)
\( = 328 + 84\)
\( = 412\)
Answer: I believe it is 508 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
Start out by finding the surface area (SA) of the 2 shapes. The formula for SA is 2(wl + wh + wh).
Blue shape: 2(12x2 + 12x10 + 2x10) = 328 cm²
Red shape: 2(8x3 + 8x6 + 3x6) = 180 cm²
Now that the surface area of both shapes are solved, just add them together and you will get the answer of 508 cm²

Jackson works as a veterinary technician and earns $12.20 per hour. Jackson normally works 40 hours a week. And a normal week, what is his total pay before taxes and other deductions
Answer:
p = 12.20h
30.5 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Jackson works as a veterinary technician and earns per hour = $12.2
He works in a normal week = 40 hours
Let hours = h and weekly pay = p
p = 12.20h
p = $12.20 × 40
= $488.00
Last week Jackson was ill and missed some work.
His total pay before deduction was $372.10
To find the hours he work the equation will be p = 12.20h
372.10 = 12.20h
372.10/12.20 = h
h= 30.5

in wich of the tables are x and y inversely proportional
A
x=1,2,3,4
y=6,3,2,1.5
B
x=2,3,5,7
y=7.5,5,3,2
C
x=1,3,4,24
y=24,8,6,1
D:
x=0.1,0.3,25,100
y=200,40,0.8,0.2
Answer:
A, C
Step-by-step explanation:
If it is inversely proportional then y = k/x
Let's try one by one for the options. (im replacing y and x in the equation and finding k to see if k is the same all throughout)
A.
6 = k/1 (k=6)
3 = k/2 (k=6)
2 = k/3 (k=6)
1.5 = k/4 (k=6)
Yes! It's the same everywhere so this is correct!
B.
7.5 = k/2 (k=15)
5 = k/3 (k=15)
3 = k/5 (k=15)
2 = k/7 (k=14)
For the last one k is not the same so nope. It is wrong.
C.
24 = k/1 (k=24)
8 = k/3 (k=24)
k = 6×4 = 24
k = 24×1 = 24
This is correct too.
D.
k = 0.1×200 = 20
k = 0.3×40 = 12
k = 0.8 × 25 = 20
We can already see that k is not the same everywhere.
Only A and C, x and y are inversely proportional for all of the values

There are 20 pens in a box. Eighteen (18) of the pens are black. The other 2 pens are red. What percentage of the pens are black?
PLEASE HELP! WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!
Answer:
1:5
Step-by-step explanation:
Their is 2 red pens, because 20(pens) - 8(blue pens) = 12(pens [blue excluded]) and there are 10 black pens (12 - 10 = 2)
So we can get an un-simplified ratio of 2:10, however in the list of answers you gave us:
1:10
1:5
4:5
5:1
Their is no 2:10, so now we need to simplify our ratio by dividing both 2 and 10 by 2, 2 divided by 2 = 1 and 10 divided by 2 = 5. As we can now see this gives us the ratio of 1:5 which is our second answer choice, and therefore since 1:5 is equal to 2:10 our answer is 1:5

I am currently 13 times as old as my granddaughter. Next year, I will be 11 times as old as my granddaughter. How old am I now?
Answer:
65 years old.
Step-by-step explanation:
Define the variables:
Let x be the age of the granddaughter.Let y be the age of the grandparent.Given:
I am currently 13 times as old as my granddaughter. Next year, I will be 11 times as old as my granddaughter.Create two equations with the given information and defined variables:
\(\begin{cases}y = 13x\\y + 1 = 11(x + 1)\end{cases}\)
Substitute the first equation into the second equation and solve for x:
\(\implies 13x+1=11(x+1)\)
\(\implies 13x+1=11x+11\)
\(\implies 2x=10\)
\(\implies x=5\)
Substitute the found value of x into the first equation and solve for y:
\(\implies y=13(5)\)
\(\implies y=65\)
Therefore, the age of the grandparent now is 65 years.
Given statements:
I am currently 13 times as old as my granddaughter. Next year, I will be 11 times as old as my granddaughter.Let us represent the character's age by variables. Assuming that the grandparent's age is G and the granddaughter's age is D. Now, using the obtained variables and the statements, create two equations that represents the provided statements. Then, we can compare the equations and simplify if needed to determine the value of the variables.
\(\implies \left[\begin{array}{ccc} \text{G = 13D} \\ \text{G + 1 = 11(D + 1)}\\\end{array}\right]\)
Since G = 13D is in the form of direct variation, we can substitute the value of G into the second equation to determine the value of D (the age of the granddaughter). Then, we can substitute the value of D into any of the two equations to determine the age of the grandparent.
⇒ G + 1 = 11(D + 1)⇒ G + 1 = 11(D + 1) [G = 13D]⇒ 13D + 1 = 11(D + 1)To solve for D, simplify both sides of the equation by using the distributive property. We need to simplify both sides of the equation so that we can isolate the variables on the other side of the equation.
⇒ 13D + 1 = 11(D + 1)⇒ 13D + 1 = 11D + 11Isolate the variables on one side. This step is necessary because it can cancel out the extra variable and simplify the other variable. To do this, you can either add or subtract on both sides of the equation.
Note: I am subtracting 11D on both sides of the equation since it is my preference. But you can also subtract 13D on both sides of the equation.
⇒ 13D + 1 - 11D = 11D + 11 - 11D⇒ 1 + 2D = 11To further isolate 2D, we need to subtract 1 on both sides of the equation to cancel out the 1 on the left-hand side of the equation. Then, we have:
⇒ 1 + 2D - 1 = 11 - 1⇒ 2D = 10But the variable is still not completely isolated since there is a coefficient being multiplied to D. To isolate the coefficient from the variable, we will need to divide the coefficient (2) on both sides of the equation.
⇒ 2D = 10⇒ 2D/2 = 10/2Then, simplify both sides of the equation. Eventually, we will have a variable on one side and a numerical value on the other side.
⇒ 2D/2 = 10/2⇒ D = 5Now we know the age of the granddaughter, we can substitute the age of the granddaughter into one of the equations and simplify it to determine the age of the grandparent. I am going to choose G = 13D since it is easier to simplify. Then, we will substitute the value of D into the equation.
⇒ G = 13D ⇒ G = 13(5)⇒ G = 65 yearsTherefore, the age of the grandparent is 65 years.
Karl set out to Alaska on his truck.
The amount of fuel remaining in the truck's tank (in liters) as a function of distance driven (in kilometers) is
graphed.
How much fuel did the truck consume every 100 kilometers
Answer:
the amount of fuel consumed every 100 kilometers is 62.5 litres.
Step-by-step explanation:
To determine the amount of fuel consumed every 100 kilometers.
Note: since the graph is a straight line graph (linear graph) the amount of fuel consumed every 100 kilometers is constant (i.e the same for every 100 kilometers). So, we only need to derive the amount of fuel consumed any 100 kilometers on the graph.
From the graph, the amount of fuel consumed for the first 100 kilometers is;
\(F = F_0 - F_{100} .........................1\)
\(F_0 = 500\\F_{100} \simeq 437.5\\\)
substituting into equation 1.
\(F = F_0 - F_{100} \\F = 500 - 437.5\\ F = 62.5 litres\\\)
Therefore, the amount of fuel consumed every 100 kilometers is 62.5 litres.
