lbvjy [14]

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.

You are planning to put a new digital flat t.v on a wall that is 12ft long and 9ft high. the digital t.v has a diagonal of 72 in

Pie

Area of wall = 9 * 12 = 108 ft^2
Width of TV = x
Lenght = 2x
Diagonal of TV = 72 " = 6 ft

x^2+(2x)^2=6^2
x^2+4x^2=36
5x^2=35
x^2=36/5
x=sqrt(36/5)
Width = 2.68 ft.
Length = 2.68 * 5.36 = 14.36 ft^2
Area of wall - area of tv = 108 - 14.36 = 93.64 ft
