Answer:

Carolyn's mistake was confusing the selling price of the necklaces with the profit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-------> the selling price of each necklace

we know that

The linear equation that represent the situation is equal to

12(x-3.20)=54

solve for x

(x-3.20)=54/12

x=4.5+3.20=\$7.70

The profit on each necklace is equal to

\$7.70-\$3.20=\$4.5

therefore

Carolyn's mistake was confusing the selling price of the necklaces with the profit.

Order the numbers from least to greatest. 0.3, 9/25, 33%, 0.35
Finger [1]

Answer:

0.3(least)

0.33

0.35

0.36(greatest)

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, so first we need to have all of our numbers in the same category of variable. So first, we will convert 9/25 to a decimal.

To do that, we must divide 9 by 25 to get our answer of 0.36.

Now, we will convert the 33% to a decimal by dividing it by 100 to get 0.33

We now have our list, which should be ordered as:

0.3

0.33

0.35

0.36

Graph the equation<br> y=-2x+1
Fofino [41]

Start by plotting the y-intercept at (0,1).

From that point, count "up 2, right 1" to get a second point on your graph.  

If needed repeat that "up 2, right 1" from that second point to get a third point.

Draw the line that connects these 2 or 3 points.
