The cost or unit price for purchasing each pair of work gloves is $1.19.

The cost of 7 dozen pairs of padded work gloves purchased by the contractor is $99.96.

The incorrect unit price calculated by the contractor is $14.28 per pair.

Now, we know 1 dozen is equal to 12 units.

Therefore,

The number of pairs of gloves purchased = 7 × 12 = 84

As the total cost is $99.96, the cost of each pair will be:

= $99.96 ÷ 84

= $1.19

The error by the contractor was that she didn't consider the word dozen in his calculation. She simply divided the total cost by 7 to calculate the price per pair.

The unit price of purchasing each pair of work gloves is $1.19.

NARA [144]
I graphed the given points and used Pythagorean theorem to get the value of each side of the rhombus.

Each side of the rhombus served as the hypotenuse of the imaginary right triangle formed in the graph. The diagonals formed are mutually bisecting and have cut each diagonal in equal parts.

Pls. see attached graph.

Please help! i have no clue if it's equivalent :(
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

y+2=y+2

Step 2: Subtract y from both sides.

y+2−y=y+2−y

2=2

Step 3: Subtract 2 from both sides.

2−2=2−2

0=0

Answer:

All real numbers are solutions.

I need to know what was the number of sharpened pencils at 7:07 am?
Vanyuwa [196]

You wrote the equation wrong- he starts with 9 pencils so that's a constant and he sharpens 11 pencils for every minute. The equation would be 9+11x with x being the amount of minutes, which in this case is 7. So you just substitute and solve.

9+11x

9+11(7)

9+77

86


Hope this helps!
