Error Analysis A contractor purchases 4 dozen pairs of padded work gloves for $54.24. She incorrectly calculates the unit price as $13.56 per pair for the expense report. What is the correct
unit price? What is the error?
The correct unit price is $
per pair.

the unit rate for each pair is $1.13

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay this is how you would do this problem correctly:

we know that 4 dozen pairs of gloves cost $54.24 however we want to know what the cost is for one pair so we have to make a equation by dividing total cost by the number of glove pairs.

$54.24/4 dozen

the reason we are putting 4 dozen instead of just dividing $54.24 by 4 is because we want to know the unit price for each pair of gloves so it would actually look like this:

$54.24/4(12)

Dozen = 12

so we multiply 12 by 4 to get 48 pairs of gloves, we then divide $54.24 by 48 to find our unit rate of pricing for each pair:

$54.24/48 = 1.13

so now we place a dollar sign in front of 1.13 to get your

for every pair bought it costs $1.13

So how did the Analysis A contractor get the wrong answer? well when she had bought the 4 dozen gloves she divided $54.24 by 4, which in this case would make it seem as though the gloves came in a 12 pack of gloves. However she was buying the gloves individually so she would have to multiply 4 by 12 before dividing the total number of gloves from $54.24.    

guess at question:

a vertical line intersects the graph of g(x,y) = 0 at two points. what conclusion follows about the function f(x) implicitly defined by g(x,f(x)) = 0?

the domain of f(x) cannot include the x coordinate of any such vertical line.

informally, f(x) is not a function, and

g(x,y)=0 cannot be solved for y uniquely.

the relation r = {(x,y) such that g(x,y) = 0} is a function if

for all (a,b) ∊ r and (c,d) ∊ r, a=c implies b=d.

step-by-step explanation:

im guessing (23,14). hope this : )
