$25 because 13 divided by 52 is $4 so $4 per sweater and $377 dived by 13 is $29 per sweater

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So, 13 sweaters cost $52, so 1 sweater costs $4. If he sells the 13 sweaters for $377, you will need to do 377 divided by 13, and that is 29. The last step you have to do is find the difference (subtraction) of 4 and 29. So, 29-4=25. Therefore, The profit the store made was $25 per sweater. Hoped that helped!!

If Avery is willing to pay $10 for a pizza, Pia is willing to pay $13, and Sylvio is willing to pay $15, how much consumer surpl

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total consumer surplus is given by the difference between the willingness to pay of each customer to the actual price of a good.

Since Avery is only willing to pay $10 and the pizza costs $12, Avery will not buy a pizza and should not be considered for consumer surplus.

Since Pia is willing to pay $13, and Sylvio is willing to pay $15, consumer surplus is:

$S = (\$13-\$12)+(\$15-\$12)\\S=\$4$
