Step-by-step explanation:
Total amount of cookies = 4250
butter cookies, b
Almond cookies, a
Chocolate cookies, c
It made 715 more butter cookies than
almond cookies
b = a + 715
It made 5 times as many chocolate cookies as almond
5a = c
Total amount of cookies
= a + b + c
= a + (a+715) + (5a)
= 7a + 715
7a + 715 = 4250
7a = 4250-715
a = 3535 / 7
a = 505
c = 5a
= 5 (505)
= 2525
The factory make 2525 chocolate cookies.
The equation that we can create from this situation is:
i = (190 – 5 x) * (29 + x)
where i is the income and x is the increase in daily rate
Expanding the equation:
i = 5510 + 190x – 145x - 5x^2
i = -5x^2 + 45x + 5510
Taking the 1st derivative:
di/dx = -10x +45
Set to zero to get the maxima:
-10x + 45 = 0
x = 4.5
So the cars should be rented at:
29 + x = 33.5 dollars per day
The maximum income is:
i = (190 – 5*4.5) * (33.5)
i = 5,611.25 dollars
Let n be the first even integer, and n+2 will be the second even integer. (Why? Think 2 and 4, 2+2=4. This is the case for every consecutive even integers).
n + 3(n+2) = 54
n + 3n + 6 = 54
4n = 48
n = 12, n+2 = 14
The answer is C 200
Because 10 / 200 = 0.05 * 100 = 5%
I hope this helps :)
For this case we have the following variable:
p: cost of the item that Arthur wants to buy before tax
The expression for the 6% tax is given by:
Or equivalently:
Therefore, two different expressions for the total cost are:
Expression 1:
Expression 2:
To prove that they are equal, suppose that the item costs $ 100:
Expression 1:
Expression 2:
Since the cost is the same, then the expressions are the same.
Answer:
Two different expressions that model the problem are:
