Answer:

To make a profit of at least $500 she must sell at least 12 necklaces

Step-by-step explanation:

Joyce rented a booth at a carnival at a cost of $95 to sell handmade beaded necklaces. The cost of making and packaging each beaded necklace was $15. If Joyce sells the beaded necklaces at $35 each then we have to find beaded necklaces she sell to make a profit of at least $500.

The costs side of the equation, we have:

Let no. of necklaces that she sell are x

∴ The cost of making and packaging x beaded necklace is $15x

Total Cost = 95+15x

Now, Joyce sells the beaded necklaces at $35 each. Therefore, selling price will be $35x

To make a profit of at least $500 the equation can be written as

95+15x+500\leq35x

595\leq50x

⇒ x\geq11.9=12

Hence,  to make a profit of at least $500 she must sell at least 12 necklaces

Answer: She must sell at least 30 beaded necklaces to make a profit of at least $500.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write an equation with the information given:

  • Cost of selling necklaces: $95 + $15x

Where $95 is the cost of renting the booth, and n is the number of necklaces

  • Profit: 35x

To break even the equation is:

95+15x = 35x

Since she wants at least have a profit of $500, (at least means more or equal)

The profit will be placed in the cost side:

95 +15x+500 ≤35x

Solving:

95+500≤35x-15x

595 ≤ 20x

595/20 ≤ x

29.75≤ x

Rounded

30 ≤x

She must sell at least 30 beaded necklaces to make a profit of at least $500.

select the correct answer. Consider the function f. Which statement is true about function f? NO LINKS!! ​
andre [41]

Answer:

C) As x approaches positive infinity, f(x) approaches positive infinity

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The domain is NOT all real numbers as x is either smaller than or bigger than 0, and smaller than or bigger than 2.  So x ≠ 0 and x ≠ 2.
  • This implies that there are asymptotes at x=0 and x=2.
    Therefore, the function is NOT continuous.
  • The function is NOT increasing over its entire domain as
    f(x) = -x² -4x + 1 is decreasing for its given domain of 0<x<2

Identify the reference angle
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

Below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

300 degrees - reference angle is |360 - 300 |= 60 degrees

225 = 225 - 180 = 45 degrees

480 = 480 - 360 = 120 so it is 180 - 120 = 60 degrees.

-210 = |-210 + 180| = 30 degrees.
