The store bought shoes for 40 dollars. they want to make a 20 percent markup. how many dollars did they raise the original prise by?

8 dollars is the profit because revenue is 48 dollars  and original price was 40

75

step-by-step explanation:

you do x-29=46 (the number of cantaloupes sold)

in order to find x, you have to find what minus 29 equals 46, meaning you'd have to add 29 to 46.

29+46=75

if you replace x with 75, the equation looks like:

75-29=46

x=75
