Answer:
Definetely, it is reasonable. You may assume that a pet as a companionship will help the elderly feel more comfortable and therefore, happy. There are a few problems tough:
- There is no practical way of meassuring 'happiness'.
- Sometimes, the correlations of two factors may be a coincidence. Scientist should always consider this when they try to claim something byusing some backup logic, like we did.
- Even tough the statement makes some sense, you need to be aware that maybe is not completly positively correlated. Maybe having 20 more pets does not make an elderly happy if it alredy had 1 or 2.
1.50x + 450 = 3x
450 = 3x - 1.50x
450 = 1.50x
450/1.50 = x
300 = x
300 copies must be sold to break even
Of means multiplication
So
And then simplify the numerator ad denominator
=
And simplify the numerator and denominator again
=
And we are finally left with the answer which is
12/25 that will be the answer so its the percent time always helps.
