Answer:

Patricia sell each calendar for $7.68

Step-by-step explanation:

Each calendar requires 12 sheets of paper and a cover.

Cost of 200 sheets = $50

Cost pf 12 sheets =[tex]\frac{50}{200} \times 12=3[/tex]

Cost of 100 covers = $40

Cost of 1 cover =[tex]\frac{40}{100}=0.4[/tex]

Patricia estimates that the other costs for producing 1 calendar come to $3.

So, total cost for 1 calendar = $3+$0.4+$3=$6.4

She sells the calendars for 20% more than the amount that it costs her to produce them.

So, Selling price of 1 calendar =[tex]6.4+20\%(6.4)=6.4+0.2(6.4)=7.68[/tex]

Hence Patricia sell each calendar for $7.68
