Answer:
2, because 2 can only be divided by 1 and itself, and thats what a prime number is
Given:
Cost to build a bookshelf = $20
Cost to build a table = $45
Amount available to spend = $600
Let x = number of bookshelves built.
Let y = number of tables built.
The total number of bookshelves and tables = 18.
Therefore
x + y = 18.
That is,
y = 18 - x (1)
The total amount available to build x bookshelves and y tables = $600. Therefore
20x + 45y = 600
That is (dividing through by 5),
4x + 9y = 120 (2)
Substitute (1) into (2).
4x + 9(18 - x) = 120
4x + 162 - 9x = 120
-5x = -42
x = 8.4
From (1),obtain
y = 18 - 8.4 = 9.6
Because we cannot have fractional bookshelves and tables, we shall test values of x=8, 9 and y=9,10 for profit
Note: The profit is $60 per bookshelf and $100 per table.
If x = 8, then y = 18-8 = 10.
The profit = 8*60 + 10*100 = $1480
If x = 9, then y = 18-9 = 9.
The profit = 9*60 + 9*100 = $1440
The choice of 8 bookshelves and 10 tables is more profitable.
Answer: 8 bookshelves and 10 tables.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
you need to draw a leaf plot
You figure out the amount of chocolate doughnuts sold by multiplying 2/3 by 7 1/4
first you change 7 1/4 to an improper fraction:
7 1/4= 29/4
now multiply 2/3×29/4 by multiplying the two numerators then putting that over the two denominators multiplied: (2×29)/(3×4)=58/12
now simplify:58/12=4 10/12= 4 5/6
the answer is Stanley's doughnut shop sold
4 5/6 trays of chocolate doughnuts
