A store is instructed by corporate headquarters to put a markup of 25% on all items. An item costing $16 is displayed by the store manager at a selling price of $4. As an employee, you notice that this selling price is incorrect. Find the correct selling price. What was the manager's likely error?

Can someone help? It would be appreciated! ♡︎

Find out  the selling price.

To prove

As given

A store manager instructs his employees to mark up all the items by 25%. An item that the store bought for $16.

25% is written in the decimal form.

= 0.25

25% of the $16= 0.25 × 16

                         = $4

Selling price of the item = Original price of item + 25% of the $16

                                       = $16 + $4

                                      = $ 20

Therefore the selling price of the item is $20.

step-by-step explanation:

∠1≅∠2 by the alternate exterior angles theorem.

step-by-step explanation:

given, a ∥ b and ∠1 ≅ ∠3 .we have to prove that e ∥ f

we know that ∠1≅∠3 and that a || b because they are given. we see that by the alternate exterior angles theorem. therefore, ∠2≅∠3 by the transitive property. so, we can conclude that e || f by the converse alternate exterior angles theorem.

we have to fill the missing statement.

transitivity property states that if a = b and b = c, then a = c.

now, given ∠1≅∠3 and by transitivity property ∠2≅∠3 .

hence, to apply transitivity property one angle must be common which is not in result after applying this property which is ∠1.

the only options in which ∠1 is present are ∠1 and ∠2, ∠1 and ∠4

∠1 and ∠4 is not possible ∵ after applying transitivity we didn't get ∠4.

hence, the missing statement is ∠1≅∠2.

so, ∠1≅∠2 by the alternate exterior angles theorem.
