The purpose of solving equations is to solve application problems. true or false

The correct answer is True

Explanation:

In mathematics, equations are mathematical statements that include a set of elements that are said to be equal, for example, x + 5 = 4 - 1. These statements are used to find unknown values that are generally represented by letter x, for example by solving the equation previously presented you can find the value of x.

Equations are widely used at school as part of mathematics subject, but besides this, the main purpose of writing and then solving a equation is to find unknown values in real problems or situations either in daily life or other fields such as engineer, for example if you buy a set of items and do not know the value of one of them but know the total price of them you can use an equation to know the unknown value. Thus, it is true the purpose of solving equations is to solve application problems.

wholesale price is the initial price before markup. retail price comes after the markup.

a price of 8 bucks that's marked up by 100%   is

formula: initial price + (percent markup in fraction/decimal)(initial price)

8+(1)(8)

8+8

16

retail price is $16.

.632

step-by-step explanation:

6 * 1/10 = 3/5

3*0.01 = 0.03

3/5 + 0.03 = .63

2*0.002 = .002

.63 + 0.002 = .632
