Answer:74
Step-by-step explanation: first you need to find the ratio so divide 220 by 32 to get 6.875 then didvide 510 by that same number and you will get 74. 18181818 but 74 because you can’t have a fraction of a person
Answer:
There is no change.
Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing you should do is solve the equation yourself.
1) Distribute the 2.
6x + 4 = 2x – 16
2) Next, you'll want to get the x's on one side. So add -2x to both sides.
6x + 4 + -2x = 2x + -2x - 16
4x + 4 = -16
3) Now subtract 4 from both sides
4x + 4 – 4 = -16 – 4
4x = -12
4) Finally, divide both sides by 4
4x/4 = -12/4
x = –3
To solve this problem all you need to do is look back out you work, and figure out the correct solution. The answer the question is The student made an error in Step 1.
<span>(a) $7.04
(b) 704/1599
(c) 0.44
(d) 14
(e) $98.56
(a) How much profit does Lucy earn when she sells a necklace?
Since the problem states that her profit is the sale price minus the cost of materials and labor, we have the following equation.
P = $15.99 - $3.38 - $5.57
P = $12.61 - $5.57
P = $7.04
So her profit is $7.04 per necklace.
(b) Write a fraction of the profit per sale price of the necklace. Record your answer as a fraction using whole numbers.
The raw fraction is 7.04/15.99, to get rid of the decimal point, multiply top and bottom by 100, getting 704/1599.
The prime factors of 704 are 2,2,2,2,2,2,11 and the prime factors of 1599 are 3,13,41. Since neither 704, nor 1599 share any common factors, the fraction can't be reduced and the final answer is 704/1599.
(c) What decimal of every dollar of the sale price of the necklace is profit using the fraction from Part (b)?
Pardon the lack of formatting
704/1599 = 0.4403
Rounded to the nearest hundredth gives 0.44
(d) Lucy collected $223.86 selling necklaces at a craft fair. How many necklaces did Lucy sell? Show your work.
This question is asking for total cost. So divide the $223.86 by the sale price of $15.99.
$223.86 / $15.99 = 14
14 necklaces were sold.
(e) How much profit did she earn from the number of necklaces she sold? Show your work.
Since we know from (a) that she has $7.04 profit per necklace, just multiply the amount of profit by the number sold. So
$7.04 * 14 = $98.56</span>
12a + 6 + 3a = 15a + 2
15a = 15a - 4
0 = - 4
