<u>Find cost of 1 necklace:</u>

20 necklaces = $500

1 necklace = $500 ÷ 20 = $25



<u>Find Sales of 3/4 of the necklaces:</u>

3/4 of 20 = 3/4 x 20 = 15 necklaces

15 necklaces sold at $40 each = 15 x 40 = $600



<u>Find Sales of the remaining necklaces:</u>

20 - 15 = 5

5 necklaces sold at $25 = 5 x 25 = $125



<u>Find profit:</u>

Total Sales = $600 + $ 125 = $ 725

Total profit made = $725 - $500 = $225



Answer: She made $225

$725


3/4 of 20 = 15 necklaces

15 x 40 = 600


The rest:

5 x 25 = 125


125 + 600

= 725

g(x) = – x^2 + 4x + 3 when g(-3).

~Substitute x with -3.

g(-3) = -(-3)^2 + 4(-3) + 3

~Simplify

g(-3) = -9 - 12 + 3

~Simplify using PEMDAS

Surface area of cylinders
Nitella [24]

Answer:

SA = 402.14 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Imagine you unroll the cylinder. You will be left with a rectangle and two "lids" (disks).

The rectangular area will be of dimension:

Ar = (height)*(circumference of the disk)

Ar = (12 in) * (8 in) *pi = 301.60 in^2

The area of one disk will be

Ad = pi*(radius^2) = pi*(4^2 in^2) = 50.27 in^2

So the total surface area will be

SA = Ar + 2* Ad = 402.14 in^2 (square inches)
