A store buys 17 sweaters for $68 and sells them for $561. How much profit does the store make per sweater?
He makes a profit in total of $8381
The store makes a profit of $29 per sweater.
Here, we have to calculate the profit per sweater, we need to find the difference between the selling price and the cost price (purchase price) of each sweater.
Given:
Number of sweaters bought = 17
Cost of buying 17 sweaters = $68
Selling price of 17 sweaters = $561
Profit per sweater = Selling price per sweater - Cost price per sweater
First, calculate the cost price per sweater:
Cost price per sweater = Total cost / Number of sweaters
Cost price per sweater = $68 / 17
Cost price per sweater = $4.
Now, calculate the profit per sweater:
Profit per sweater = Selling price per sweater - Cost price per sweater
Profit per sweater = $561 / 17 - $4
Profit per sweater = $33 - $4
Profit per sweater = $29.
The store makes a profit of $29 per sweater.

Answer:
$27.85
Step-by-step explanation:
I think what it means by outstanding charge is that there is something else he also needs to pay that he hasn't input yet. So, going off of that logic,
20+7.85 = 27.85, to find the amount he should pay for both charges to not create another bank fee.

Answer:
The winter evening settles down
With smell of steaks in passageways.
Six o'clock.
The burnt-out ends of smoky days.
And now a gusty shower wraps
The grimy scraps
Of withered leaves about your feet
And newspapers from vacant lots;
The showers beat
On broken blinds and chimney-pots,
And at the corner of the street
A lonely cab-horse steams and stamps.
And then the lighting of the lamps.
Alfred Tennyson - Summer Night
Alfred Tennyson was another poet who made great use of visual imagery. See if you can get a clear picture of the summer night he describes in this poem "Summer Night:"
Now sleeps the crimson petal, now the white;
Nor waves the cypress in the palace walk;
Nor winks the gold fin in the porphyry font:
The firefly wakens: waken thou with me.
Now droops the milk-white peacock like a ghost,
And like a ghost she glimmers on to me.
Now lies the Earth all Danaë to the stars,
And all thy heart lies open unto me.
Now slides the silent meteor on, and leaves
A shining furrow, as thy thoughts in me.
Now folds the lily all her sweetness up,
And slips into the bosom of the lake.
So fold thyself, my dearest, thou, and slip
Into my bosom and be lost in me.
William Wordsworth - I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud
Next is an excerpt from "I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud" by William Wordsworth. The first and last stanzas show a progression of the poet's emotions using visual imagery.
I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.
For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.

Theodore Rothke - My Papa’s Waltz
This famous poem by Theodore Rothke is an excellent example of olfactory and tactile imagery with plenty of visual imagery thrown in for good measure. The effect is powerful.
The whiskey on your breath
Could make a small boy dizzy;
But I hung on like death:
Such waltzing was not easy.
We romped until the pans
Slid from the kitchen shelf;
My mother’s countenance
Could not unfrown itself.
The hand that held my wrist
Was battered on one knuckle;
At every step you missed
My right ear scraped a buckle.
You beat time on my head
With a palm caked hard by dirt,
Then waltzed me off to bed
Still clinging to your shirt.

The equation of the parabola will be y = 1/8(x- 3)² - 4. Then the correct option is B.
What is the parabola?It's the locus of a moving point that keeps the same distance between a stationary point and a specified line. The focus is a non-movable point, while the directrix is a non-movable line.
Identify the vertex, focus, and directrix of the graph.
Then the equations representing the parabola in the graph will be
y = a(x - h)² + k
Then the vertex is at (3, -4). Then we have
y = a(x - 3)² - 4
For x = 0, the value of y will be -2.875.
-2.875 = a(0 - 3)² - 4
a = 1/8
Then the equation of the parabola will be
y = 1/8(x- 3)² - 4
Thus, the correct option is B.

Determine the equation of the perpendicular bisector of AB and state the coordinates of the point where the perpendicular bisector meets or intersects with the y-axis.
Gradient: -1
Midpoint : [5,1]
Coordinates for A: [3,5] , B: [7,1]
Answer:
the equation will be in the form of:
y = -x + b
To find be take any point on the line. Hence we have (5,1) which is the midpoint where the line meets.
Therefore, substitute (5,1) in the above equation:
1 = -5 + b
b = 6
So the question of the line will be:

Tomas bought 2.4 pounds each of apples and pears. The apples cost $1.65 a pound and the pears cost $2.25 a pound. Tomas split the cost of the apples and pears evenly with his 3 siblings. How much should each of them pay for the apples and pears?
Answer:
$2.34
Step-by-step explanation:
The total cost is the sum of the number of pounds multiplied by the cost per pound for each of the items purchased. Each of the four equal shares of the cost will be 1/4 of the total cost.
__
The distributive property can be used to simplify the problem.
total cost = cost of apples + cost of pears
share cost = 1/4(total cost) = 1/4((2.4 lb)($1.65/lb) +(2.4 lb)($2.25/lb))
share cost = (1/4)(2.4)($1.65 +2.25) = 0.6($3.90)
share cost = $2.34
Each of them should pay $2.34 for the apples and pears.

Solve the following equation. Show all your work.
(x/(x−2))+((x−1)/(x+1))=−1
Answer:
[tex]\displaystyle x = 0 \text{ and } x = 1[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given and asked to solve the equation:
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{x}{x-2} + \frac{x-1}{x+1} = -1[/tex]
We can first remove the rational expressions by multiplying both sides of the equation by its LCM (in this case, by (x - 2)(x + 1)):
[tex]\displaystyle (x-2)(x+1) \left( \displaystyle \frac{x}{x-2} + \frac{x-1}{x+1}\right) = -1(x-2)(x+1)[/tex]
Simplify:
[tex]\displaystyle x(x+1)+(x-1)(x-2) = -(x-2)(x+1)[/tex]
Expand and isolate:
[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} (x^2 + x) + (x^2 - 3x + 2) & = -(x^2 -x -2) \\ \\ 2x^2 - 2x + 2& = -x^2 + x + 2 \\ \\ 3x^2 - 3x & = 0 \end{aligned}[/tex]
Hence solve for x:
[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} 3x(x - 1) & = 0 \\ \\ x & = 0\text{ or } x = 1\end{aligned}[/tex]
In conclusion, the solutions of the equation are x = 0 and x = 1.

Let's examine what information this problem gives us:
Mrs. Albert has $400 ⇒ Total money = 400Mrs. Albert bought two adult tickets at $62.50 each⇒ with '2' being the number of adults tickets
⇒total charge from purchasing adult tickets = 2 * 62.5 = 125
Each child ticket costs $42.5⇒ with 'x' being the number of child tickets bought
⇒total charge from purchasing child tickets = 42.5x
Since the sum of total charge from purchasing adult tickets and total charge from purchasing child tickets is equal to 400:
⇒ 42.5x + 125 = 400 <== translated form
Let's solve:
[tex]42.5x+125=400\\42.5x=275\\x=6.47[/tex]

Goblin Gryh can count the coins in a bag in 10 minutes. If goblin Girt counts with him, they can count all the coins in 6 minutes. How long would it take Goblin Girt to count the coins in the bag alone.
The Goblin Girt take 15 minutes to count the coins in the bag alone if Goblin Gryh can count the coins in a bag in 10 minutes. If goblin Girt counts with him, they can count all the coins in 6 minutes.
What is a fraction?Fraction number consists of two parts, one is the top of the fraction number which is called the numerator and the second is the bottom of the fraction number which is called the denominator.
Let's suppose the Goblin Girt take x minutes to count the coins in the bag alone.
Then we can frame an equation to find the value of x:
[tex]\rm \dfrac{1}{x}+\dfrac{1}{10}=\dfrac{1}{6}[/tex]
[tex]\rm \dfrac{1}{x}=- \dfrac{1}{10}+\dfrac{1}{6}[/tex]
[tex]\rm \dfrac{1}{x}=\dfrac{1}{15}[/tex]
x = 15 minutes (reciprocal on both sides)
Thus, the Goblin Girt take 15 minutes to count the coins in the bag alone if Goblin Gryh can count the coins in a bag in 10 minutes. If goblin Girt counts with him, they can count all the coins in 6 minutes.

Which values of x and y would make the following expression represent a real number? (4 5i)(x yi) x = 4, y = 5 x = –4, y = 0 x = 4, y = –5 x = 0, y = 5
The product will be a real number when x = 4 and y = -5.
Which values of x and y should we use?We have the product of complex numbers:
[tex](4 + 5i)*(x + yi)[/tex]
We want this to be a real number, then the second complex number must be the complex conjugate of the first one, so we must have:
[tex](x + yi) = (4 - 5i)[/tex]
Now, if we take the product, we get:
[tex](4 + 5i)*(4 - 5i)\\\\4*4 - 4*5i + 4*5i - (5*5)*i^2 = 16 + 25 = 41[/tex]
So we can see that the outcome is a real number.
Then we must have x = 4 and y = -5.

Which statement describes how the graph of h is different from the graph of g?
A.
The graph of h is the graph of g vertically shifted up 3 units.
B.
The graph of h is the graph of g horizontally shifted right 3 units.
C.
The graph of h is the graph of g horizontally shifted left 3 units.
D.
The graph of h is the graph of g vertically shifted down 3 units.
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
given f(x) then f(x ± a) is a horizontal translation of f(x)
• if + a , then a shift to the left of a units
• if - a then a shift to the right of a units
h(x) = g(x - 3)
then h is the graph of g shifted right 3 units
George is solving the equation below by finding successive approximations. He started from a graph where he found the solution to be between 5 and 6. Using the lower and upper bounds from the graph, George did the following work for the first iteration. Step 1 Rewrite the equation so that it equals zero. Step 2 Evaluate the rewritten equation at the lower and upper bounds. Since the solution to the original equation is represented by a zero, one of the bounds should yield a negative difference and the other should yield a positive difference. Step 3 Take the average of the lower and upper bounds from the graph. Step 4 Evaluate the rewritten equation at . Step 5 Since this value of x yields a negative difference, use it to replace the previous upper bound that yielded a negative difference, . So, the bounds are now and . In what step, if any, did George make his first mistake? A. In step 1, George should have subtracted in the opposite order to set the equation equal to 0. B. In step 5, George should have used as the new lower bound. C. George made no mistakes, and his work is correct. D. In step 3, George should have averaged the two differences instead of the two bounds.
The mistake made by George is; D:George should have averaged the two differences instead of the two bounds.
How to Solve Successive Approximations?In Mathematics, successive approximation can be defined as a classical method that is used in Calculus for solving integral equations or initial value problems.
In this question, George started the first iteration of successive approximation by using the lower and upper bounds of the graph. However, we can deduce that George made a mistake instep 5 because he should have used x = 3/2 as the new upper bound.
