Answer:

$19.68

Step-by-step explanation:

this is not really clearly defined.

I assume it means that they are buying the item, no matter how much it costs, and that the split ratio between them also remains the same no matter the actual cost.

x = what Marcia is paying

and 132 - 18% = 132 × (100 - 18) / 100 = 132×0.82 = 108.24

so,

x + x/2 + x/3 = 108.24

6x + 3x + 2x = 649.44

11x = 649.44

x = $59.04

Mario's part is x/3 = 59.04/3 = $19.68

Sewing patterns recommended buying extra fabric in case of mistakes. Darlene bought 7 yards of fabric, plus 20% extra fabric. Ch
Debora [2.8K]

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

A LANE IN THE MIDDLE OF A TWO-WAY ROAD THAT HAS DASHED LINES ON BOTH SIDES AND TWO LARGE CURVED ARROWS FACING EACH OTHER MAY BE
Nonamiya [84]

This lane symbol is used for marking the beginning and ending of a left turn to the drivers.

What are lane symbols?

A permitted lane usage is denoted by a lane symbol. For example, a lane marked with a diamond is one that is designated for high-occupancy cars.  A lane symbol of a bicycle marks that the lane is designated for cyclists. At crossings, arrows indicate movements that are necessary or allowed. The user of the roadway must yield when there is a row of solid triangles. Likewise, two large curved arrows facing each other on a lane in the middle of a two way road with dashed lines on either sides indicate the beginning and ending of a left turn.

A Lane symbol or marking are also utilized to warn drivers of potentially dangerous situations that may be coming up. For instance, a triangle with no filling indicates a yield ahead. A speed hump is indicated by a succession of lines across a lane that get bigger and wider.
