The cost per box of cookies is $3.75

The total amount Hannah raised from the sales of cookies is $52.50

The total amount Mallory raised from the sales of cookies and donations is $88.50

In order to determine the cost per box of cookies, take the following steps:

The first step is to determine the total sum of the boxes sold by Hannah and Mallory

Sum of the boxes sold = 14 + 22 = 36 boxes

36 boxes were sold by Hannah and Mallory

The second step is to determine the total cost of the 36 boxes sold.

Total cost of 36 boxes = total amount raised - donation

$141 - $6 = $135

The third step is to determine the total cost of each box

cost of one box = total cost of 36 boxes / total number of boxes

135 / 36 = $3.75

The total amount Hannah raised = cost per box x number of boxes she sold

14 x $3.75 = $52.50

The total amount Mallory raised = amount raised from the sale of cookies + donation

amount raised from sales = cost per box x number of boxes she sold

22 x $3.75 = $82.50

Total amount = $82.50 + $6 = $88.50

Write a problem that includes multiplying decimals . Explain how you know where to place the decimal in the product.

Maya is making dream catchers with her family. Each dream catcher takes 1.53 feet of string. She has 6 people in her family. How much string does Maya need total?

1.53*6=9.18

You know where to put the decimal because you count how many places in the decimal is for the two numbers being multiplied (the only decimal in the two numbers being multiplied is in the number 1.53 and that’s is two places in) and then go that many places in on the product (918 two places in from then right would be 9.18)

Answer:

36°

Step-by-step explanation:

Like your other question, the angles of the triangle must add up to 180. The tangent line is perpendicular to the center, so the angle must be 90°.

90° + 54° + 36° = 180°
