Answer:

B. The manager estimate is reasonable. They ordered about 150 picks and sold about 200 picks, so they should have about 50 fewer than they started with.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:-

Previous guitar In-stock before ordering and selling(P) = 500 picks. -----(equation 1)

Now, ordered guitar is 15 boxes of 9 picks each.

Ordered guitar=15 \times 9

Hence, Ordered guitar(O)=135 picks ------------(equation 2)

Now, selled guitar is 19 boxes of 10 picks each.

So, Selled guitar = 19\times 10

Hence, Selled guitar(S) =190 picks   ------------(equation 3)

Now to calculate current in-stock of guitar we can write as,

Current guitar in-stock(C) =  Previous in-stock(P) + Ordered guitar(O) - Selled guitar(S)

C=P+O-S

C=500+135-190

C=635-190

C=445

\therefore Current guitar in-stock(C) = 445 picks ------(equation 4)

So, difference in-stock (D) = Previous guitar in-stock(P)- Current guitar in stock(C)

D=P-C

D=500-445

D=55

Therefore Difference in Previous and current stock of guitar(D) = 55 = 50 pick approx.

Hence, the manager estimate is reasonable. They ordered about 150 picks and sold about 200 picks, so they should have about 50 fewer than they started with.

Please help me! I have no idea how to do this
elena-s [515]

The best way to do this is to make up values for the sides.

Say the lengths of square B's sides are each 4 cm. That means A's sides are 2 cm.

So, the area of square B is 4^2 = 16 cm^2, and A's area is 4 cm^2. We can see the shaded area is half of A, so it's 2 cm^2.

What percent of 16 is 2?

2 / 16 * 100 = 12.5%

The table shows the heights in inches of trees after they have been planted. Determine the equation which relates x and y.
fenix001 [56]
To get the that relates x and y, we choose two points on the table and use the equation of a straight line as follows:

Recall that the equation of a staight line is obtained from the formula
\frac{y-y_1}{x-x_1} = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Using the points (30, 18) and (36, 24), we have
\frac{y-18}{x-30} = \frac{24-18}{36-30}= \frac{6}{6} =1 \\  \\ \Rightarrow y-18=x-30 \\  \\ \Rightarrow y=x-30+18 \\  \\ \Rightarrow y=x-12
