June 2009 Math Level 1

<p>Algebraically: </p>

<p>the q was something LIKE THIS:
The original price was $120, and after the markup, the price became 174. So what was the markup? (correct me if im wrong)</p>

<p>120+ 120(x/100)=174
120(x/100)=54
x/100=.45
x=45%</p>

<p>Yea, it’s fine :slight_smile: lol</p>

<p>good cuz i think that is what i put…i forget :|</p>

<p>yea so im kinda upset about how i did on the math 1, cuz i left a few blank and i do not even think i got all the answered questions correct…which is weird cuz i always did better on math 1 on practice tests - compared to math 2.</p>
