The owner of a garden center pays $25 for each birdbath . She sells them for 15% more than she paid. Decide whether each expression represents the selling price for b birdbaths.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The selling price is $28.75b.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are no options given but I will represent the word problem mathematically.

Let b stand for all the birdbath. If the owner pays $25 for each, then he pays $25b.

Selling them for 15% more means, 15% of the cost price was added to the original price. Finding 15% of cost price we have:

15% x $25b = 0.15 x $25b = $3.75b.

Therefore, the selling price is given as

$25b + $3.75b = $28.75b.
