We can find this by creating a function to represent how many lawns she's mowed. 


f(x) = 46x - 343

The 46x represents the profit of 46 dollars per month for each lawn mowed and the -343 is the cost of fuel per month to remove it from profit. We now need to set this function to 800, and solve for x.

800 = 46x - 343
1143 = 46x
25.58 = x

Because she can't mow part of a lawn, we need to round to a whole number. Our options are to round down to 25 or round up to 26. Lets start with the lower number first, and see if the profit for that many lawns is over 800.

f(25) = 46(25) - 343
f(25) = 1150 - 343
f(25) = 807

Because 25 is over 800 dollars, we don't need to calculate 26. Therefore, she needs to mow at least 25 lawns to make a profit of at least 800 dollars a month.

What is the volume of a right circular cone that has a height of 14.9 cm and a base with the circumference of 2.9 cm rounded to
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

The answer to your question is  Volume = 3.30 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Volume = ?

height = 14.9 cm

circumference = 2.9 cm

Process

1.- Calculate the radius

   circumference = 2πr

-Substitution

   2.9 = 2πr

-Solve for r

   r = 2.9/2π

   r = 1.45/π cm

2) Calculate the volume of the cone

   Volume = 1/3πr²h

-Substitution

   Volume = 1/3π(1.45/π)²(14.9)

-Simplify

   Volume = (1.04)(0.213)(14.9)

   Volume = 3.30 cm³

Which is the simplified form of the expression 3(7/5x+4) - 2(3/2 - 5/4x)?
Kruka [31]

Answer:

B. \frac{67}{10} x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the expression. Remember to go by the order of operations, or PEMDAS.

1) First, distribute the numbers outside of the set of parentheses to the terms inside the set of parentheses next to them. Then, simplify the fractions.

3(\frac{7}{5} x + 4) -2 (\frac{3}{2} -\frac{5}{4} x)

\frac{21}{5}x + 12  - \frac{6}{2} + \frac{10}{4} x

\frac{21}{5} x + 12 - 3 + \frac{10}{4} x

2) Finally, combine like terms. (This means to add or subtract constants and to add or subtract terms with the same variables.) You may need to convert terms to the same denominator in order to do so easier. Then, reduce the fraction.

\frac{21}{5} x + 9 + \frac{10}{4}x \\\frac{84}{20}x + \frac{50}{20}x + 9 \\\frac{134}{20}x + 9 \\\frac{67}{10}x + 9

Thus, the answer is \frac{67}{10} x + 9.
