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
Answer:
Length: 116
Width: 21
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say that the width of carpet is x. If the length of the carpet is 95 inches more than the width, then let's say that the width is x + 95.
Since we are solving for the perimeter, you have to multiply the width and the length(x and x + 95) by two.
So,
2x + 2x + 190 = 274.
Simplify this and you get:
4x= 274 - 190
4x = 84
x= 21
So, the width is 21. This means that the length is 21 + 95.
21 + 95 = 116
