Answer:
$58.5 (profit)
Step-by-step explanation:
Ariana bought 5 dozen pears at $36 per dozen.
The value of 1 dozen = $ 36
Her buying amount = $36 * 5 = $180
The value of 1 pear = $ 36/12
= $3
The value of 7 pears= $3 * 7 = $21
She sold the remaining (53) at $4.50 each.
Her, selling amount = $4.50 * 53
= $238.50
Her profit amount = selling amount - buying amount
= $238.50 - $180
= $58.5
1 dozen = 12 pears
12 pears = $36
1 pear = 36/12 = $3
Total Cost of Pears = No. of pears x price of 1 pear
= (5x12) x 3
= 60 x 3
= $180
Sale of Pears = Price per pear x (Total Pears bought - Rotten Pears)
= $4.50 x (5x12-7)
= $4.50 x 53
Profit/Loss = Sale of Pears - Total Cost of Pears
= $58.50
Ariana made a profit of $58.50.
The answer is -8
I hope this helps you :D
V/2 - 21 = -15
V/2 - 21 + 21 = -15 + 21
V/2 + 0 = 6
V/2 * 2 = 6 * 2
V = 12
