Monte's Autorana is having an end-of-year clearance in which the TV ads proclaim that all cars are sold at 5% markup over the dealer's cost. Monte has a new Exfinity for sale
for $18,970. On the Internet, you find out that this particular model has a dealer cost of
$17,500. Is Monte being honest in his advertising?

No

Step-by-step explanation:

We first write out $17,500 as a multiplication to 5%

New price = 17500 x 1.05 = 18375  = $18,375

18375-17500 = 875

We then work out the tax on just the mark up of $875 increase

20% mark up = 875 x 0.20 = 175

18.375+175 = 18550

= $18,550 charge to be considered for 5%

However Monte would argue that tax on tax also applies to 875 x 1.20 = 1050

=$1050 and he is just asking to meet half tax costs an extra 10% of his own tax back of 17.500 x 20% that he paid = 17500 x 0.20 = 3500

tax he paid inclusive or non inclusive would be the same.

= $3500

10% of this = 3500 x 0.10 = 350  

18550+350 = 18,900

Therefore it is not dishonest if mentioned in the terms and conditions.

We also universally can round 5% up by applying other charges to include promotion costs and even apply more for administration costs.

.there can be infinite values of m and n that can satisfy the above equation. for each value of m of m or n. there maybe infinite sets of solution for the above

step-by-step explanation:

there has been genes found in the x chromosome of males that have been linked to [homo/hetero]sexuality. in addition to the reign of the x chromosome, a section of chromosome 8 has also been link to, "alot of ppl are so " these facts were proven true after a 2014 study of a gay male and his strait brother. according to newscientist.com,"chromosome 14 and is mainly active in the thyroid, but also the brain. called tshr, it makes a type of receptor protein that recognises and binds to a hormone that stimulates the thyroid. in this way, the gene plays an important role in controlling thyroid function. the fact that tshr seems to be involved in sexual orientation fits with evidence that thyroid function seems to be linked to sexuality."

in conclusion, "ppl are so gay" due to their genetics.
