Last year, the price of a certain computer was $150 more than it is now. this year's price is 3/4 of last year's price. how much does the computer cost this year?

The computer's price for this year = $450

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

The computer's price for this year = X

The computer's price for last year = X + 150

According to the question,

X - X*(3/4) = 150*(3/4)

or, X - 3X/4 = 450/4

or, (4X - 3X)/4 = 450/4

or, X/4 = 450/4

or X = 450

Therefore, The computer's price for this year, X = $450

So, it will be less than $150 from last year.

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.

the answer is:

the answer is:

to solve the problem, we need to remember the quotient of power property, it's defined by the following relation:

if we have a quotienf of powers that have the same base, we need to keep the same base and subtract the exponent of the denominator power to the exponent of the numerator power.

so, we are given the expression:

then, calculating we have:

hence, the answer is:

have a nice day!
