$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!!

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

44m

Step-by-step explanation:

area of a trapezoid = (a+b)* h/2

since the distance between two parallel sides is 15, that would be your height

plug everything in and you get:

480 = (20 + b) *15/2

b = 44

A lighthouse has a shadow that is 36 feet long. Zara is 4 feet tall, and she is standing next to the lighthouse. Zara has a shad

pychu [463]

Answer:

48 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

At a particular time, objects and their shadows are proportionate.

Therefore, in figure,

AB/FD = BC/DE --- (1)

where AB is the height of the lighthouse, BC, its shadow and FD is the height of Zara and DE is her shadow.

From the given information,

BC = 36 feet

FD = 4 feet and DE = 3 feet

(1) becomes

AB/4 = 36/3

AB = 12

AB = 48

Hence, the height of the lighthouse is 48 feet.
