Answer:

Darlene bought more fabric

Darlene bought 3.4 yards more

Step-by-step explanation:

Darlene = 7 yards + 20% extra

= 7 yards + (20% of 7 yards)

= 7 + (20% × 7)

= 7 + (0.2 × 7)

= 7 + 1.4

= 8.4 yards

Chris = 4 yards + 25% of 4 yards

= 4 yards + (25% of 4 yards)

= 4 + (25% × 4)

= 4 + (0.25 × 4)

= 4 + 1

= 5 yards

Darlene bought more fabric

How much more?

Darlene - Chris

= 8.4 yards - 5 yards

= 3.4 yards

Darlene bought 3.4 yards more

Karen deposited $25 in the bank on Monday, $50 on Wednesday and $15 on Friday. On Saturday, she took out $40. Karen's original b
natulia [17]
In order to solve this problem, use sign conventions. Since deposit indicates cash inflow, that would take the positive sign. On the other hand, withdrawals take negative sign. We add these integers to the original balance. he solution is as follows:

$100 + $25 + $50 + $15 + (⁻$40) =<em> $150</em>

What is the slope of the line created by this equation?<br> y-6 = -3(x--8)<br> Help!
aliya0001 [1]

Rewrite the equation in slope intercept form:

Y -6 = -3(x - -8)

Use the distributive property on the right side first:

Y -6 = -3x -24

Add 6 to both sides

Y = -3x -18

The slope is the number in front of the x variable.

Slope = -3

Michelle ordered 200 T-shirts to sell at the school carnival. She paid $2.80 per shirt, plus 5% of the total order for shipping.
djyliett [7]

Answer: She should sell each T-Shirt for at least $4.41

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to figure out what the total cost of the 200 t shirts was plus shipping. so 200 t shirts for 2.8 would cost $560 + a 5% shipping fee ($28) = 588 if she wants to markup by 150. you would then multiply 588 * 1.5 = $882. This would be the final money she wants to make by the end of her school carnival. Divide 882/200 (amnt of t-shirts) to get $4.41 per shirt

A rectangular parking lot has a perimeter of 820 ft. The area of the parking lot measure SL 42,000 ft
horsena [70]

Answer:

a= 200

b = 210

Step-by-step explanation:

My assumption is, we have to find the length of sides of rectangle

Given

perimeter = 2a + 2b = 820 ft (i) (here a is smaller side and b is larger side)

area = a*b = 42,000 ft^2 (ii)

from eq (1)

2a + 2b = 820

=> 2(a+b) = 820

=> a+b = 820/2

=> a + b = 410

=> a = 410-b   (iii)

putting the value of a in eq(ii), we get

(410-b) *b = 42,000

410b - b^2 = 42,000

0 = b^2 - 410b + 42000

b^2 - 410b + 42000 = 0

b^2- 200b- 210b + 42000 = 0

b(b-200)-210(b-200) = 0

(b-200)(b-210) = 0

or

b= 210 and b = 200

if b is larger side than b =210

By putting value of b in eq(iii),

a = 410 -210 = 200
