A.) If Lucy sells 1 necklace, her sales would equal to $15.99. Then her profit would be:
Profit = $15.99 - $3.38(1) - $5.57(1)
Profit = $7.04
The fraction of the sale price of the necklace in profit is denoted as x.
15.99x = 7.04
x = 704/1559
b.) This is the same as part (a) but in decimal form. Just simply divide 704 by 1559. The answer is 0.44
c.) If Lucy's sales is $223.86 and each necklace costs $15.99, then the number of necklaces sold is $223.86 ÷ $15.99/necklace = 14 necklaces
Her profit for the 14 necklaces sold would be:
$223.86 - $3.38(14) - $5.57(14) = $98.56
4(x - 2) + 6 = 2(5x - 6) <em>use distributive property</em>
(4)(x) + (4)(-2) + 6 = (2)(5x) + (2)(-6)
4x - 8 + 6 = 10x - 12
4x - 2 = 10x - 12 <em>add 2 to both sides</em>
4x = 10x - 10 <em>subtract 10 from both sides</em>
-6x = -10 <em>divide both sides by (-6)</em>
x = 10/6
<h3>x = 5/3</h3>
Answer:
Use the explantion to answer your question
Step-by-step explanation:
Amount he paid for first 20 shares
= $25 + (20 x $10.51)
= $25 + $210.20
= $235.20
Amount he paid for next 20 shares
= $25 + (20 x $8.93)
= $25 + $178.60
= $203.60
Thus, total amount paid
= $235.20 + $203.60
= $438.80

Answer:
A) Quantity x minus 5 over quantity x plus 1, where x≠-1 and x≠-9
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying the numerator first:
x² + 4x - 45 using the quadratic formula you get;
(x - 5)(x + 9)
Then simplifying the denominator x² + 10x + 9 using a quadratic formula you get;
(x + 1)(x + 9)
Dividing the numerator and denominator now gives;
Cancelling (x + 9) throughout leaves you with;
The only restrictions here is if x = 1 and 9 which will give an undefined answer.
