Suppose x quarts of the 50% solution
0.5x+0.2*20=0.4(x+20)
0.5x+4=0.4x+8
0.1x=4
x=40
What????
You just add 1 +3 =4

1. A cosmetologist must double his/her salary before the employer con realize any profit from his/her work, Miss, Mead paid Miss, Adams $125,00 per week to start.
2. Miss. Mead pays Miss. Brown $125.00 per week. How much money must Miss. Brown take in for services if Miss. Mead is to realize $50.00 profit on her work? (Conditions on salary are the same as in problem 1)
ODS
a. $275.00 b. $325.00 c. $250.00 d. $300.00
Answer:
d. $300.00
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a cosmetologist must double her salary before the employer can realize any profit from his/her work, for Miss. Mead to realize $50.00 profit on her work, you would have to determine the amount that doubles the salary of the cosmetologist and add the $50 needed as profit:
Salary= $125*2=$250
$250+$50= $300
According to this, the answer is that for Mead to realize $50.00 profit on her work, Miss. Brown must take $300.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of a rectanguiar shape like this one is V = L * W * H, where the letters represent Length, Width and Height. Here L is the longest dimension and is 28 - 2x; W is the width and is 22-2x; and finally, x is the height. Thus, the volume of this box must be
V(x) = (28 - 2x)*(22 - 2x)*x
and we want to maximize V(x).
One way of doing that is to graph V(x) and look for any local maximum of the graph. We'd want to determine the value of x for which V(x) is a maximum.
Another way, for those who know some calculus, is to use the first and second derivatives to identify the value of x at which V is at a maximum.
