A store bought a tent for $230 and
marked it up 65%. The store sells the
tent with an 8% tax, what is the total
cost of the tent?

$397.9

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to find 65% and 8% of 230

(230 x 65) / 100 = 149.5

65% of 230 is 149.5

(230 x 8) / 100 = 18.4

8% of 230 is 18.4

Add 230 to the 65% and 8% markups to get the total retail cost

230 + 149.5 + 18.4 = 397.9

The total retail cost of the tent it $397.9

i believe the answer is c.

second option

step-by-step explanation:

the measures of a triangle equal 180. use that to find x.

2x+3x+4x=180

9x=180

9x/9=180/9

x=20

now you know x, you know angle a is 40°, angle b is 60°, angle c is 80°.

because angle a is 40°, the first option doesn't work.

because angle b is 60°, the second option does work.

when you add angle a and b, you get 100°. complementary means it equals 90°, so the third option doesn't work.

when you add angle a and c, you get 120°, which is not 100.
