So, there are 6 dozen pairs of gloves. That amount of gloves costed $87.12. She calculated the amount per pair as 14.52. This was incorrect because she forgot about the majority of the 6 dozen(one dozen is the number 12). So that means there are not 6 pairs of gloves, in fact, there are 72 pairs of gloves. So, now that we have that number, we can <u>correctly</u> calculate the amount of gloves per pair. Now we have 2 answers. The amount per glove and the amount per pair
Answer 1: Each pair of gloves costs $1.21.
Answer 2: Each individual glove costs 61¢<em>(if there is a number under the hundredths place in the price, like in the thousandths, you </em><em>always</em><em> round upwards, in this case, the cost was .605, but you round up, making it 61¢)</em>
Answer:
f(x)= 10,000(2)^x
Step-by-step explanation:
Exponential equations can be modeled by a(r)^x where a is the initial amount, r is the difference, and x is how many units the equation should be squared by.

Answer:
No, I do not agree with the conjecture because 1 is not a prime number.
Step-by-step explanation:
A prime number is one that can be divided by 1 and itself only. Thus it can be expressed in 2 factors only, 1 and the number itself.
Examples are; 2, 3, 5, 13, 19 , 23 etc.
So, 2 = 1 x 2
3 = 1 x 3
23 = 1 x 23
Prime numbers must be expressed as the product of 1 and the number.
The conjecture that every prime number can be expressed as the product of two prime numbers is false. Because 1 is not a prime number, since it has no 2 factors.
