Answer:
$3.36
Step-by-step explanation:
On each pencil, the profit was ...
pencil profit = pencil price - pencil cost
pencil profit = $0.22 -0.15 = $0.07
The number of pencils sold was ...
(4 dz)(12 pencils/dz) = 48 pencils
Then the total profit was ...
(48 pencils)($0.07 /pencil) = $3.36
The store made a profit of $3.36 from pencils.
Since it is a negative number, it does not have a factor. factors of a number can only be positive.
Answer:
x = 71
Step-by-step explanation:
18(x + 1) = -54
to start off, subtract 18 from both sides
18 - 18(x + 1) = -54 - 18
that should give you
x + 1 = 72
(its safe to take out paranthesis from problem by now) now take away 1 from each side
x + (1 - 1) = 72 - 1
that should give you
x = 71
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming that the Skateboard is $180, and you are asking for the price when it is 30% off.
180 * .70 = $126
Another way of solving the question is finding 10 % of 180, which is 18. And you are looking for 30% less, so 18 * 3 = 54, which is 30% of 180.
180 - 54 = 126
