Alright, so the money you make is automatically -1500 for the tools, so it's -1500. Next, the materials cost 200 dollars for each scooter, s, so we have -1500-200s. After that, we have 300 dollars for the sale of each scooter, so we have -1500-200s+300s. Adding -200 and 300 together, we have -1500+100s. To make a profit, that means 100s -1500 > 0. Dividing by 100, we have
s -15 >0  and s>15, so if you sold 16 scooters you'd make a profit. That profit would be 100*16-1500=1600-1500=100 dollars

Factor completely.
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

y² - 12y + 32

Consider the factors of the constant term (+ 32) which sum to give the coefficient of the y- term (- 12)

The factors are - 4 and - 8, since

- 4 × - 8 = 32 and - 4 - 8 = - 12, thus

y² - 12y + 32 = (y - 4)(y - 8) → B

If twice a number is subtracted from 11, the result is 4 more than the number. What is the number?
Flauer [41]

Let the number = x.

So 2 times x subtracted from 11 is written as 11-2x

The result is 4 more than the number is written as 4 +x

Now you have 11-2x = 4 + x

We can now solve for x.

Add 2x to each side:

11 = 4 + 3x

Subtract 4 from each side:

7 = 3x

Divide both sides by 3:

x = 7/3

ira has 128 stamps in his stamp album he has the same number of stamps on each of the 8 pages how many stamps are on each page
den301095 [7]
There are several important information's already given in the question. Based on those given information's the answer to the question can be easily deduced.
Number of stamps that Ira has in his stamp album = 128
Number of pages that the stamp album has = 8
Then
Number of stamps in each page of the stamp album = 128/8
                                                                                     = 16
So 16 stamps are there on each page of the stamp album. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand. You can always use this method for solving similar type of problems in future without requiring any additional help.
