a hairdryer is sold for £42 and makes a profit of 40%. what is the hairdryers net cost.

Let the cost of the hair dryer equal x.

The net cost plus a 40% markup equals 42, set up an equation and solve forex.

1.4x = 42

Divide both sides by 1.4

X = 42 / 1.4

X = 30

The net cost was £30

x=-2

infinite number of lines, so there is an infinite number of equations.

step-by-step explanation:

there are an infinite number of line that passes through the point (-2,5)

x=-2   is one line that passes through the point

y = 5 is another line that passes through the point

(these two lines are perpendicular to each other).

since the number of   numbers are infinite and the slope is the ratio of two numbers,(change in y over change in x) we can have an infinite number of slopes.     our only condition is that it passes through the point (-2,5)

homozygous. one is homozygous, while two is heterozygous.
