Answer:

$2.64

Step-by-step explanation:

Selling them at 5 cents each ($0.05), he could sell 1 dozen buttons for

12 * $0.05 = $0.60

As he bought them at $0.38 per dozen, the profit per dozen would be

$0.60 - $0.38 = $0.22

As 12 dozen is 1 gross, the profit per gross would be

12 * $0.22 = $2.64

Ravi is driving 440 miles to visit his grandma.
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

You would use the formula: Rate = distance / time which equals 55

Since we are asked for the time it takes to reach 3/4 the destination.We just use 3/4 of the value of the distance.

55 = (3/4)(440) / t

t = 6 hours

So the answer would be "C"

Find all polar coordinates of point P = (6, 31°).
wel

as far as I can tell, is just a matter of going around the circle many or infinite times around.

so 6,31° is the first point, the next point will be one-go-around, 6, 31+360 => 6, 391°

then the next will be 6, 391+360 => 6, 751° and so on.

so we can say is (6, 31° ±360°n), n ∈ ℤ.

A bag contains 100 marbles which are red, green, and blue. Suppose a student randomly selects a marble without looking, records
ra1l [238]

Answer:

35 red marbles

Step-by-step explanation:

So we can put the different color marbles in a ratio. So 7:2:11. If we add all of those up we get 20. We do 100/20 to get 5. Each number in the ratio is equivalent to 5 marbles. Then we do 7*5 to get 35. We can check our work by doing, (7*5) + (2*5) + (11*5) = 100. And it does equal 100 so the answer is correct.
