The​ cost, C, of an item​ (the price paid by a​ retailer) plus the​ markup, M, on that item​ (the retailer's​ profit) equals the selling​ price, S, of the item. The formula is Upper C plus Upper M equals Upper S. The selling price of a computer is ​$1770. If the markup on the computer is ​$130​, find the cost to the retailer for the computer.

Answers

Answer: so if C+M=S

You have to subtract selling price and markup to find the seller cost

Step-by-step explanation:

S=1770

M=130

C=1640

S-M=C

It's C. The congruence statement tells you what parts of rhe polygon are congruent to each other, so basically which will have the same measure. In the statement, you can tell that PS is congruent to JL because theyre in the same "positions", just on opposite sides of the equal sign.

Nine tenths of a sum of money is 45. Find the whole amount

Answers

If you would like to know the whole amount of money, you can calculate this using the following steps:

nine tenths of a sum of money is 45
9/10 * x = 45     /*10
9 * x = 45 * 10   /9
x = 45 * 10 / 9
x = 50

Result: Nine tenths of 50 is 45.
The answer is 50.

First do 45 divided by 9 which is 5 then times by 10 results in 50.

A way to check this is by then finding 1/10 of 50 which is 5 then X by 9 is 45, which is what you originally started with.
