A. An item is regularly priced at $65. Bill bought it at a discount of 20% off the regular price. How much did Bill pay?

B. The wholesale price for a pillow is $4.50. A certain department store marks up the wholesale price by 40%. Find the price of the pillow in the department store.
Round your answer to the nearest cent, as necessary.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Convert the discounted percent to decimal

20% = 0.2

Step 2: Multiply the discount to the item regularly priced

0.2(65.00) = 13

So, Bill received a $13 discount, therefore, the amount he paid AFTER his discount is:

Step 3: Subtract the result (the discount Bill received) from the regular price

$65.00 - $13.00= $52.00

Therefore, Bill paid $52.00

Step 1: Multiply the wholesale price for a pillow by the marked-up the wholesale price

$4.50 × 40% = 1.8

x = 1.8

Step 2: Add the result to the wholesale price for the pillow

4.50 + 1.8 = $6.3

Step 3: Round to the nearest cent

Add a zero behind the result = 6.30

Therefore, the price of the pillow in the department store is $6.30

step-by-step explanation:

similar triangles are triangles which have the same shape but not the same size. this means their angle measures are equal but their side lengths are not instead they are proportional. to solve, we will set up a proportion and solve.

a proportion is two equal ratios set equal to each other. we form the ratios by finding corresponding sides (sides which match to each other on both triangles by their position). out ratios will be one side of the small triangle over the corresponding side on the big triangle as shown below:

.

to solve the proportion, we'll cross multiply by multiplying numerator with denominator across the equal sign.
