Answer:

$2.64

Step-by-step explanation:

Selling them at 5 cents each ($0.05), he could sell 1 dozen buttons for

12 * $0.05 = $0.60

As he bought them at $0.38 per dozen, the profit per dozen would be

$0.60 - $0.38 = $0.22

As 12 dozen is 1 gross, the profit per gross would be

12 * $0.22 = $2.64

3 x 12 = 36

.5 x 36 = 18.0

36 divided by .38 is about 94.7

18 - 94.7 = -76.7

ANSWER:

about -76.7

What experimental of rolling a 2 or 3
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

Option 1: 0.32

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

P(A) be the experimental probability of getting two

And

P(B) be the experimental probability of getting three

The dice is rolled 360 times.

So the sample space is n(S) = 360

P(A) = n(A)/n(S)

= 54/360

= 0.15

And

P(B) = n(B)/n(S)

= 62/360

= 0.172

As both the events A and B are mutually exclusive,

P(A or B)  = P(A) + P(B)

= 0.15 + 0.172

=0.322

Rounding of to one decimal gives us:

0.32

So the probability of rolling a two or three is 0.32 ..

What is the area of FGH
Dmitrij [34]
54 in^{2}

A right triangle is a shape that looks like half of a square. The height of the triangle is 12, and the base of the triangle is 9. To find the area, use the following formula: 

A = \frac{bh}{2}


= \frac{12x9}{2}


= \frac{108}{2}


= 54 in^{2}

Please help me thank you so much. Just not sure of my answers
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

An interesting experiment is given. We need to address various questions based on our knowledge of calculus.

Step 2

Part (a)

Time taken for the radius to grow to 2 cm = t1 = r/0.5 = 2/0.5 = 4 hours

Time taken for the radius to become 0 = t2 and the same can be obtained by solving:

r = 2 - √t2 = 0

Hence, t2 = 22 = 4 hours

Hence, the time duration of the entire experiment (from the introduction of the bacteria until its disappearance) = t1 + t2 = 4 + 4 = 8 hours

Step 3

Part (b)

r(t) = 0.5t for 0 ≤ t ≤ 4

and

r(t) = 2 - √(t - 4) for t > 2
