Suppose a car dealer receives a profit of $500 for each mid-sized car m sold and $750 for each sport-utility vehicle s sold. The

valkas [14]

Answer:

$\boxed{\text{Four}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

500m = profit on mid-sized cars

750s = profit on SUVs

500m + 750s = total profit

You have two conditions:

(1) 500m + 750s ≥ 3500

(2) m ≥ 2s

Let s = 2

Check condition (1)

500m + 750 × 2 ≥ 3500

500m + 1500 ≥ 3500

500m ≥ 2000

m ≥ 4

Check condition (2)

(2) m ≥ 2 × 2

m ≥ 4

$\text{The dealer must sell }\boxed{\textbf{four}}\text{ mid-sized vehicles per month}}$

Check:

500 × 4 + 750 × 2 ≥ 3500 4 ≥ 2 × 2

2000 + 1500 ≥ 3500 4 ≥ 4

3500 ≥ 3500

OK.

Jane had 275 stickers, which she gave to her friends. Each friend got five more stickers than the friend before. If the first fr

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

10 friends

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The formula of the sum is equal to

$sum=\frac{n}{2}[2a1+(n-1)d]$

where

a1 is the first term

n is the number of terms (number of friends)

d is the common difference in the arithmetic sequence

In this problem we have

$sum=275\ stickers$

$a1=5\ stickers$

$d=5$ ----> the common difference

substitute in the formula and solve for n

$275=\frac{n}{2}[2(5)+(n-1)(5)]$

$550=n[10+5n-5]\\ \\550=10n+5n^{2} -5n\\ \\5n^{2}+5n-550=0$

Solve the quadratic equation by graphing

The solution is n=10

see the attached figure

therefore

She had 10 friends who got stickers
