Answer:
CED = 117
Step-by-step explanation:
21x +21 = 7x +49
21x - 7x = 49 - 21
14x = 28
x = 28/14
x = 2
7x + 49
=7(2) + 49
=14 + 49
=63
180 -63 = 117
CED= 117
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
12%
40% = 0.4
30 = 0.3
0.3 x 0.4 = 0.12
0.12 = 12%
