<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>
Answer:
5 is the point on the number line how far she walked east
0 is the point on the number line where she began walking
-5 is the point on the number line how far she walked west
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Factoring:</u>
This equation cannot be factored because its roots are irrational (as shown by solving with the quadratic formula). Also, to factor a quadratic equation, you need to find a pair of numbers whose product is equal to the c term (-5) and whose sum is equal to the b term (-6). There is no pair of numbers which satisfies this, further showing that the equation cannot be factored.
<u>Quadratic Formula:</u>
The quadratic formula is x=
.
First, you need to find the a, b and c terms of your equation. They are 1, -6, and -5 respectively.
Now, you must plug in to the equation and solve for x. You must do so twice, once with a plus sign in the numerator and once with a minus.

The answers are 3+√14 and 3-√14.
Hope this helps!!
