Molly bought a pair of gloves and a skirt. the gloves cost £4. she sold teh gloves and the skirt for a total of £48. she made 100% profit on the cost of the gloves. 20% profit on the total cost. work out the percentage profit on the cost of the skirt

The percentage profit on the cost of the skirt is 16.3%.

First step is to calculate the profit made on gloves

Gloves profit=$4+(100%×$4)

Gloves profit=$4+$4

Gloves profit=$8

Second step is to calculate the selling price of skirt

Selling price of skirt=Total selling price - Selling price of gloves

Selling price of skirt=$48-$8

Selling price of skirt=$40

Third step is to calculate the Total profit

Total profit=20%×$40

Total profit=$9.60

Fourth step is to calculate the profit from skirt

Profit from skirt=$9.60-$4

Profit from skirt=$5.60

Fifth step is to calculate the cost price of skirt

Cost price of skirt=$40-$5.60

Cost price of skirt=$34.40

Sixth step is to calculate the profit percentage using this formula

Profit percentage=Profit from skirt/Cost price of skirt

Let plug in the formula

Profit percentage=$5.60/$34.40×100

Profit percentage=16.27%

Profit percentage=16.3%(Approximately)

Inconclusion the percentage profit on the cost of the skirt is 16.3%.

option a.

step-by-step explanation:

if you look closely at the graph, we can notice that the function is not defined at two different points.

if you look at functions b and c, you will notice that both functions are not defined at just one point. the function b is not defined at x= -5/2 and function c is not defined at x=-5. both options are discarded, given that our function should not be defined at two fiferent points.

now, if you look closely at the graph you will notice that the function sketched is not defined at x=5 and x=-2.

the answer is c hope this
