Currently 100 students can eat for 20 days, so we need to find the number of days 125 students can eat.

Originally:
100 students eat for 20 days

New:
125 students eat for x days. Multiply original number of students by original number of days which will give the total amount of students per day. Then divide the total amount of students per day by the new number of students to find the new number of days.

x= (100 students * 20 days)/ (100+25)
x= (100 * 20)/ 125
x= 2000/125
x= 16 days

ANSWER: 125 students can eat for 16 days.

Hope this helps! :)

The revenue, in dollars. of a company that produces video game systems can be modeled by the expression 52 +
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

1). Profit = 3x - 180

2) Profit of selling 1000 video games = $2820

Step-by-step explanation:

Expression for the revenue = 5x² + 2x - 80

Expression for the production cost of the video games = 5x² - x + 100

Since, profit is the difference between the revenue and the cost,

Expression for the profit will be,

Profit = Revenue - Cost

         = (5x² + 2x - 80) - (5x² - x + 100)

         = 5x² + 2x - 80 - 5x² + x - 100

         = 3x - 180

Here, x = Number of video games sold

If number of video games sold = 1000

Profit = (3×1000) - 180

         = 3000 - 180

         = $2820

Help!!! Divide the polynomial by 7x
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

4x^4-9x^3+x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Dividing the polynomial by 7x means dividing each term by 7x, as shown below:</em></u>

\frac{28x^5-63x^4+7x^3}{7x}\\=\frac{28x^5}{7x}-\frac{63x^4}{7x}+\frac{7x^3}{7x}\\=4x^4-9x^3+x^2

<em>In dividing, we also used the property of exponents, shown below:</em>

\frac{a^x}{a^y}=a^{x-y}

So the answer is:  4x^4-9x^3+x^2
