The correct answer would be -1/4. I am sorry that is not one of the choice but by doing the math correctly, -1/4 is the correct answer.
First you have to find the cost of each jacket.
54/9=6 Each jacket cost $6
Then you get the total profit and divide that by the cost of each jacket.
270/6=45 (45 jackets)
Multiply 45 jackets by the cost ($6)
45*6=$270.
The answer is 45.
Answer:
PR = 5 because LP + PR = LR according to the Segment Addition Postulate, and 7 + 5 = 12 using substitution
Step-by-step explanation:
The naming of the segments suggests that point P is between L and R, so that ...
LP + PR = LR
This corresponds to the last choice.
_____
<em>Comments on the alternate interpretation</em>
On the other hand, if point L is between P and R, then the segments are PL and LR. The Segment Addition Postulate would tell you that ...
PL + LR = PR
The Reflexive Property of Congruence would tell you that PL = LP. The Substitution Property would tell you LP can be substituted into this equation, making it ...
LP + LR = PR
and by the commutative property, ...
LR + LP = PR.
Multiple properties of addition and congruence are involved with this interpretation, which more or less matches the third choice. That is, the simple explanation of answer choice 3, by itself, is insufficient to explain why the length of PR should be considered to be 19, not 5.
Answer:
-17
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Red: 161 White: 77
Step-by-step explanation:
Given there are 238 marbles in a jar, and there are 42 more red marbles than white marbles, we need to divide the number of marbles by two, as there are, presumably, two colors.
238 / 2 = 119
After doing this, we subtract 42 from one of the two 119s, and we add 42 to the other.
119 - 42 = 77
119 + 42 = 161
The value with 42 added is the red marble count, and the value with 42 subtracted is the white marble count.
