The inhabitants of a small island begin exporting beautiful clothmade from a rare plant that grows only on their island. Seeing howpopular the small quantity that they export has been, they steadilyraise their prices. A clothing maker from New York, thinking thathe can save money by "cutting out the middleman," decides to travelto the small island and buy the cloth himself. Ignorant of thelocal custom of offering strangers outrageous prices and thennegotiating down, the clothing maker accepts (much to everyone'ssurprise) the initial price of 400 tepizes/m^2. The price of thiscloth in New York is 120 dollars/yard^2.If the clothing maker bought 500m^2 of this fabric, how muchmoney did he lose? Use = 0.625Express your answer in dollars tothree significant figures.

While studying chemical reactions and conservation of matter, sarah's class conducted a variety of experiments. sarah and her lab partner found the mass of a wax candle and placed the candle in a flask. the students lit the candle and let it burn to completion. all that was left was wax and charred candle wick. per their teacher's instructions, the students found the mass of the products. their data can be seen in the data table. formulate a hypothesis the students could test to explain why the experiment did not support the law of conservation of matter. a) the students could repeat the experiment using different candles; there might have been a flaw in the candle. b) the experiment should be repeatable. the students should run several trials and then take an average of the after mass in each trial. c) the students should have someone in the class check their measurement skills as they repeat the experiment. they may have made an error using the balance. d) the students should burn the candle in a container that has some type of lid so that any gas that is a product of the reaction can be contained and massed. submit
