A market buys mixed nuts at $12.50 per pound. They want to make a 22% profit. What should they charge for retail price? Please help I’m begging!

the answer is 15.25/lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

you just plug in 1.22 (12.50) pls vote if my answer was right

$15.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide 12.50 by 100 to get 0.125

Multiply 0.125 times 122 to get 15.25

You divide by 100 to get 1% of what $12.50 is, then multiply that by 122 to get $12.50 + a 22% profit.

Finally, just add your units to get the answer of $15.25 per pound.

the correct option is:

b. a value of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to zero.

the root or roots of a polynomial are the values of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to 0. we can find the roots of a polynomial making the expression equal to 0 and then, isolating the variable (it it has just one variable).

for example, given the following polynomial:

the root or zero of the polynomial, can be found by making the expression equal to 0, and then, isolating the variable, so, finding the root we have:

therefore, we have that the root of the polynomial is equal to 2.

we must remember that the number of roots that a polynomial can have, will depend on the degree of the polynomial, a first degree polynomial have will have one single root, a second degree polynomial (quadratic expression) may have two roots and so.

hence the correct option is:

b. a value of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to zero.

have a nice day!
