$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!!

A number is squared. The result is squared, then that result is squared. The final number is 6561. What was the original number?

MissTica

The original number is 3.

I actually began with the guess-and-check method, but seeing as that won't always work, let's go over the formal way. To get the original number, you first need to determine how many times the number was squared.

To make it simple, let's use x to focus on the exponents. The number was squared 3 times, so x^2, x^2, x^2. Basically, you need to multiply. 2 * 2 * 2 = 8. So, now find the 8th root of 6561 (depending on the calculator, you can just input it). You should come up with 3. Let me know if this part confuses you.

To find the next 2 numbers, you just need to continue the pattern.

6561^2 = 43,046,721

43,046,721^2 = 1,853,020,188,851,841

To my knowledge, which means this could be wrong, they're both perfect squares. Since the number to get them both were whole numbers, they should both have a square root that equals a whole number.

Answer:

Volume= 216 cubic yards

Surface area: 276 square yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Find volume of rectangular prism:

V= lxwxh

V= 3x18x4

= 216 cubic yards

Find surface area:

SA= 2 x (front/back area) + 2 x (right/left area) and 2 x ( bottom/top area)

Front and Back Area:

A= l x w

A = 18 x 3

= 54 square yards

Right/ left Area:

4 x 3

= 12 square yards

Top/ Bottom Area:

18 x 4

= 72 square yards

54^2+12^2+72^2

= 108+24+144

=276 square yards

What is the probability of living another year for a woman who is 73 years old ?

AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

0.980413

Step-by-step explanation:

The table for the deaths and death rate per 100,000 population is attached below ;

73 years fall in the 65 - 74 years category ; with 1958.7 deaths (Female)

Hence, the probability of living another year is :

Number of deaths per 100,000 population ;

P(death) = 1958.7 / 100,000 = 0.019587

Probability of living another year = 1 - P(death)

1 - 0.019587 = 0.980413
