The answer to this word problem is letter A. 200.
Here is the solution:
given:
candy bars in batches of 800
fixed cost of $ 20 per batch
variable cost of $ 0.10 x
x= the number of batches
<u>$ 20 ( 800 )</u> = <u>16, 000</u>
$ 0.10 (800) 80
= 200
Cool, but where is the diagram?
You can estimate 3.9 times 5.3 to 4 times 5 which is 20
so if the answer is around 20, you know that you will have exactly 2 digits before the decimal place
1650 - 1200 = 450
What percent is 450 of 1200?
y = 450/1200
y = 0.375
37.5% increase
