To work out the profit, firstly, you have to work out the cost of buying them, which is $15 multiplied by 100, which is $1500. You then have to work out what he sold them all at, which is $29.99 multiplied by 100, which is $2999. You then have to subtract $1500 from $2999, giving you $1499. Therefore, Ace made $1499 in profit. Hope this helps :)

So, assuming that there is no overhead, we are finding the gross profit.

The profit will be
selling price - cost = gross profit or x
selling price - cost = x

1. selling price = $29.99 (no rounding)

2. cost = $15

selling price - cost = x

29.99 - 15 = x

Collect Like Terms
14.99 = x

Ace Landscaping made a gross profit of $14.99 per shovel.
Since they sold 100 shovels, their profit is increased 100-fold.

$14.99(100) = total gross profit

$1499 = total gross profit

Ace Landscaping grossed $1499. (A LOT) (RIP-OFF :P)

2^X = 17^X<br><br> How do you solve that equation?
Kobotan [32]

For this case we must solve the following equation:

2 ^ x = 17 ^ x

For this, we follow the steps below:

We find the Neperian logarithm on both sides of the equation to remove the variable from the exponent

ln (2 ^ x) = ln (17 ^ x)

We use one of the logarithm properties to extract x from the exponent:

xln (2) = xln (7)

We subtract xln (7) on both sides of the equation:

xln (2) -xln (7) = 0

We take x common factor:

x (ln (2) -ln (7)) = 0

We divide between(ln (2) -ln (7))on both sides of the equation, then:

x = 0

Answer:

x = 0

What are rational numbers and how do you tell the difference between integers? Please answer what are rational numbers first.
Maslowich

1. A rational number is a number that can be written as a fraction.

For example: 1/3, 5/7, 90/666, etc

Note: Any integer can be written as a fraction.

Look:

5 = 5/1 = rational

-14 = -14/1 = rational

2. There is no difference between a rational and integer.
