a store marks up their merchandise by 70%. a customer buys a lampshade for $17.00, a rug for $88.40, a sculpture for $47.60, and he has a 20% off entire purchase coupon. how much profit did the store make from this customer?

$76.50

Step-by-step explanation:

17.00 + 88.40 = 105.40

105.40 + 47.60 = 153.00

70% - 20% = 50%

$153.00 divided by 50%  = $76.50

question 1 is 8, question 2 is 9, question 3 is 24

step-by-step explanation:

now, the numbers they give you at the top are the key. from there, you just have to plug and chug! let's try 1, 2, and 3!

key: a=3, b=5, c=6

1. a+5

remember, a=3, so we plug that in to get 3+5=8

2. 15-c

c=6, so we plug that in to get 15-6=9

3. 4b

b=6, so we plug it in to get 4*6=24
