Answer:

(-\frac{7}{6} )

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question the emerald was located at a depth which is between -1/2 and -1 2/3 meters

This statement can be written as

(-1\frac{2}{3}) -(-\frac{1}{2} )

To get the depth, you find the depth of the emerald location, you find difference between the two mentioned depths

-(1\frac{2}{3} )-(-\frac{1}{2} )\\\\

Change first term to improper fraction

=-(\frac{5}{3} )-(-\frac{1}{2} )\\\\

Find the LCM to solve the operation the involves the fractions.The Least common multiple here is 6 i.e 3*2

=(-\frac{5}{3} )-(-\frac{1}{2})\\

=\frac{-5}{3} +\frac{1}{2} =\frac{-10+3}{6} =\frac{-7}{6}

The number that could represent the depth at which the emerald was located is

=\frac{-7}{6}

A pair of jeans that originally costs $42 is 25% off.Find the sale price.ASAP PLZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anon25 [30]
Original Price = $42
Discount = 25%   ---------> 25% is discount because it says 25% <span><u />off!!!</span>
Now,
Sale price = original price - discount % of original price  
                 = 42 - 25% of 42 
                 = 42 - (25/100) * 42   
                 = 42 - 0.25 * 42 
                 = 42 - 10.5 
                 = 31.5

So, the sale price is $31.5

Quantity of Jackets Price (in whole dollars) Total Revenue Marginal Revenue Total Cost Marginal Cost Profit (or loss) 0 20 1 20
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

18 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Marginal cost can be defined as the additional cost to produce every additional unit of a certain good. In mathematical terms;

Marginal cost = change in cost / change in quantity

For seven jackets, we have to find the difference between the cost of seven jackets and the cost of six jackets as follows

$101 - $83 = $18

Since the change in quantity is one, our marginal cost comes to $18.
