The function that models the profit of the company in million of dollars is:
where x represents the number of years since the company started. We want to find when the profit of the company was $4 million. Setting P as 4 in above equation, we can find the value of x when the profit was $4 million.
Thus, we can conclude that the profit of the company was $4 million in 2nd and 4th year
If he eats 6 loaves in 8 days, that means he ate 0.75 of a loaf each day. (6 divided by 8 = 0.75)
In a 12 day trip,
# divided by 12 = 0.75;
so to undo division, you multiply.
12 x 0.75 = #
# = 9. So 9 loaves for 12 days.
I'm not really a big fraction type person, but I'm sure it's 7.625
Should be four times to get in between 9 and 10
Answer:
Let x be the discounting price of a surfing lessons per person
Let y be the discounted price of a surfing lessons per person
The cost of taking a surfing lesson and go parasailing is $130
x + y = 130--------------(i)
25 people take
Surfing lessons, and 30 people go parasailing and a total of $3,650 is collected
25x + 30y = 3650--------------(ii)
We solve for y using equ (i):
y = 130 - x ------------(iii)
Substitute equ (iii) to equ (ii) and solve for x
25x + 30(130 - x) = 3650
25x + 390 - 30x = 3650
-5x = -250
-x = 50
We solve for y using equ (iii):
y = 130 - x
y = 130 - 50
y = 80
So, the discounted price to take a surfing lesson is $50 and the discounted price to go parasailing is $80
