Answer: It costs $1.22 to make each paperweight.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Selling price of 95 identical paperweights = $230.85
Then, Selling price of 1 paperweight = (Selling price of 95 identical paperweights) ÷ 95
= $ (230.85 ÷ 95) = $ 2.43
Now, selling price of each paperweight = 2 x ( cost of each paperweight)
⇒ cost of each paperweight = (selling price of each paperweight ) ÷ 2
⇒ cost of each paperweight = $ 2.43 ÷ 2 = $ 1.215 ≈ $ 1.22
Hence, it costs $1.22 to make each paperweight.
Given:
Leela invests 500 at 4.5%
VI = 500 x 1.045^t
Adele invests 500 at 4.5% but 2 years before Leela invested
Vi = 500 x 1.045^2+t
<span>The total value of Adele’s account is approximately what percent of the total value of Leela’s account at any time, t?
</span>
[500 x 1.045^2+t / 500 x 1.045^t] * 100%
1.045² x 100% = 1.092 x 100% = 109.2%
To check: t =1
Adele: 500 x 1.045^2+1 = 500 x 1.045³ = 570.58
Leela: 500 x 1.045^1 = 500 x 1.045 = 522.50
570.58 / 522.50 = 1.092
1.092 x 100% = 109.20%
It would be 1 1/2 or 1.5 pounds in total
3/8 as a decimal is .375 (divide 3 by 8)
Then you multiply .375 by 4 then you get 1.5 or 1/ 1/2.
