Answer and explanation:
Profit from sale of model boats = Sales -costs(costs of goods purchases + expenses or charges by the local fair)
John's profit from the sale of model boats can be represented by the equation:
P= 50x-(5x+80)
Where P is profit from the sale of the model boats and x is number of model boats bought and sold. The 80 is constant as it is a fixed cost paid to the local fair.
For example if John buys and sells 20 model boats, he would make profit of:
Substitute x=20 in equation above
P= 50×20-(5×20+80)
P=1000-180
P=$820
It could be said that John is in a very profitable business and his profit is also dependent on volume of sales because the lower his sales the closer he gets to making a loss and not profit
Since 1/4 is equal to 0.25 than you would do 5,400 times 0.25 and get the answer of 13,500.0. So the race car weighs 13,500 pounds.
For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables.
We have then:
x: initial amount of cards
We now write the equation that models the problem:
Therefore, the initial amount of cards is 300
Answer:
Latoya had 300 cards at the beginning
What kind of math is it? Just wondering so that I can help you
