Answer:
She completed 7.5 3/8 miles of the race.
Step-by-step explanation:
This can be solved with multiplication.
10 * 3/4 = 7.5
1/2 * 3/4 = 1 * 3/2 * 4 = 3/8
We're going to be using combination since this question is asking how many different combinations of 10 people can be selected from a set of 23.
We would only use permutation if the order of the people in the committee mattered, which it seems it doesn't.
Formula for combination:

Where
represents the number of objects/people in the set and
represents the number of objects/people being chosen from the set
There are 23 people in the set and 10 people being chosen from the set


Usually I would prefer solving such fractions by hand instead of a calculator, but factorials can result in large numbers and there is too much multiplication. Using a calculator, we get

Thus, there are 1,144,066 different 10 person committees that can be selected from a pool of 23 people. Let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!

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
1. c
2. b
3. a

Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
Use rise over run (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Plug in the points:
(6 + 6) / (2 + 4)
12/6
= 2
So, the rate of change is 2
