A.) If Lucy sells 1 necklace, her sales would equal to $15.99. Then her profit would be:
Profit = $15.99 - $3.38(1) - $5.57(1)
Profit = $7.04
The fraction of the sale price of the necklace in profit is denoted as x.
15.99x = 7.04
x = 704/1559
b.) This is the same as part (a) but in decimal form. Just simply divide 704 by 1559. The answer is 0.44
c.) If Lucy's sales is $223.86 and each necklace costs $15.99, then the number of necklaces sold is $223.86 ÷ $15.99/necklace = 14 necklaces
Her profit for the 14 necklaces sold would be:
$223.86 - $3.38(14) - $5.57(14) = $98.56
247- 538 = -291
If you line them up in that order 247 you'll have to borrow. Your answer would be -291
-538
The only way to not get -291 is to flip the two numbers.
Answer:
The correct answer is 4.8 meters.
Step-by-step explanation:
Jamal stands on a dock 1.5 meters above the surface of the water.
A trout swims 4.8 meters below Jamal.
The trout must be swimming below the surface of water.
Therefore the distance below the surface of water where the trout is swimming is 4.8 - 1.5 = 3.5 meters.
But the vertical distance between Jamal and the trout is 4.8 meters only.
Answer:
The value of x must be greater than 100.
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find the value x for which the value of log(x) is greater than than 2.

According to the property of logarithm, if a is a real number.

Using the above property of logarithm, the given inequality can be rewritten as


We conclude that the value of log(x) is greater than 2 for real values of x which are greater than 100.
Therefore, the value of x must be greater than 100.
