Answer:

£1.31

Step-by-step explanation:

5:7:12

5x+7x+12x= 216
24x= 216
x= 9

small : medim : large = 45 : 63 : 108

45y+63*2y+108*3y= 648.45
y(45+126+324)= 648.45
495y= 648.45
y= 648.45/495
y= £1.31 profit for small cake

Answer:

£1.31

Step-by-step explanation:

The cakes are sold in the ratio 5 : 7 : 12 = 5x : 7x : 12x ( x is a multiplier )

sum the parts of the ratio, 5x + 7x + 12x = 24x

Equate 24x to the number of cakes sold, that is

24x = 216 ( divide both sides by 24 )

x = 9

Thus cakes sold are

5x = 5 × 9 = 45 small cakes

7x = 7 × 9 = 63 medium cakes

12x = 12 × 9 = 108 large cakes

let p represent the profit on a small cake, then

45p + 63(2p) + 108(3p) = 648.45 , that is

45p + 126p + 324p = 648.45

495p = 648.45 ( divide both sides by 495 )

p = 1.31

That is the profit on one small cake is £1.31

Which set of data is correct for the quadratic relation f(x) = 5(x -

Burka [1]

Answer:

Direction parabola opens upward.

Vertex of parabola is (27,-9).

Axis of symmetry is $x=27$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: Option sets are not correct.

The vertex form of a parabola is

$y=a(x-h)^2+k$ ...(1)

where, (h,k) is vertex and x=h is the axis of symmetry.

If a<0, then parabola opens downward and if a>0, then parabola opens upward.

The given function is

$f(x)=5(x-27)^2-9$ ...(2)

On comparing (1) and (2), we get

$a=5>0$ , so direction parabola opens upward.

$h=27,k=-9$ , so vertex of parabola is (27,-9).

So, axis of symmetry is $x=27$ .

A company has two types of machines, type R and type S. Operating at a constant rate, a machine of type R does a certain job in

SashulF [63]

Answer:

The number of machines to complete job in 2 hours is 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the relation of the rate of each one machine and knowing that adding up both rates.

$Rate R +Rate S= Rate total$

Rate R = $\frac{x}{36}$ 'x' is the job

Rate S = $\frac{x}{18}$ 'x' is the job

So, using the equation of rates

$Rate total =\frac{x}{36} + \frac{x}{18}$

Rate total is going to be a job in 2 hours so = $\frac{1}{2}$

$\frac{1}{2} = \frac{x}{36}+\frac{x}{18}$ adding up

$\frac{1}{2}= x*\frac{3}{36}$ factoring the x

$\frac{1}{2}= x*\frac{1}{12}$ simplifying

x= $\frac{12}{2} \\$

x= 6

You owe $1,945.61 on a credit card that has an 11.2% APR. The minimum payment due is $156.00. You decide to pay $300.00. How muc

djyliett [7]

We are given
P = $1,945.61
r = 11.2%
Amin = $156
A = $300

First, we convert the interest to effective monthly terms
i = 11.2%/12 = 0.933%

After one month, the interest saved by paying more than the minimum is
(0.00933) (300 - 156) = $1.35
