Dana buys dress shirt from a clothing manufacturer for y dollars each, and then sells the dress shirts in her retail clothing store at a 35% markup. what is the retail price of a dress shirt that dana purchased for 32.00 dollars?

Explanation:

a) 35% as a decimal is 0.35  

b)Using the formula retail price = original price + markup gives s + 0.35s = 1.35s  

c) Plugging in s= 32 into the expression gives a retail price of 1.35(32) = 43.20  

d) The amount of markup was 0.35(32) = 11.20

the legal limit for the drivers who can drive after consuming any amount of alcohol is 21 years.

explanation:

on november 1, 1996, a "zero tolerance law" was put into effect in the new york state.

according to this zero tolerance law, for people under the age of 21 years, it was illegal to purchase and possess alcohol or to drive after consuming any amount of it.

also, the alcohol involvement rate for the drivers under the age of 21 was roughly twice that of elderly drivers.

(you didn't attach a copy of the poem, but i'm answering as best as i can)

since a simile compares two unlike things using like or as, it kind of gives an item the ability to do something it can't.

example: "the player was like a tiger on the field"

in this sentence, the simile conveys the idea that the player was fast and strong, like a tiger.
