Hello there!
You expect to sell 100% - 20% = 80% of many coffee sales.
0.80 * 1500 = 1200
Your answer is 1200 cups of coffee.
Hope I helped!
Let me know if you need anything else!

Answer:
<h3>x = -14</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the equation
1/4x +4 = 1/2
Solving for x
Subtract 4 from both sides
1/4x +4 - 4 = 1/2 - 4
1/4 x = (1-8)/2
1/4 x = -7/2
Cross multiply
2x = -7*4
2x = -28
x = -28/2
x = -14
Hence the value of x is -14
Answer:
y=-3/2x+6
Step-by-step explanation:
You can find the slope by taking two points on the graph, and making the one that occurs earlier in the graph (from left to right) the first point (x1, y1) and the one that occurs later in the graph the second point (x2, y2). The equation is m (or slope)=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1). I took the first two points in the table for this. m=(12-18)/-4-(-8)
the double negative on the bottom becomes an addition=> (12-18)/(-4+8)
the top simplifies to be -6 and the bottom simplifies to 4=>-6/4
this fraction can be reduced to -3/2, which is the slope of the graph.
Now, use point slope form (y-y1=m(x-x1)) to find the equation of the graph. Plug any coordinate on the graph in for x1 and y1 here. It should be correct as long as it is a point on the graph, but I am using the point (-8, 18) here.
=>y-18=-3/2(x-(-8))
the double negative in the parentheses becomes a positive=> y-18=-3/2(x+8)
distribute the -3/2 to every term in the parentheses=> y-18=-3/2x-12
add 18 to both sides, cancelling out the -18 on the left side of the equation=>y=-3/2x+6 (-12+18=6 to get 6 for b).
Therefore, the equation is y=-3/2x+6
we know that
If two lines are perpendicular, then the product o their slopes is equal to minus one
so
Step 1
<u>Find the slope of the given line</u>
we have
-------> 
This line is parallel to the y-axis
so
the perpendicular will be parallel to the x-axis
Step 2
The equation of the line perpendicular to the given line is the y-coordinate of the given point
Point 
the equation is
therefore
<u>the answer is</u>
