Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: it would take 20 weeks before the amount in both accounts would be the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of weeks that it will take either Ruben and Shawna to have the same amount of money in their account.

Let y represent the total amount that would be in Shawna's account after x weeks

Let z represent the total amount that would be in Ruben's account after x weeks

Shawna has $750 in the bank. She deposits $37.50 each week. This means that the total amount after x weeks would be

y = 37.5x + 750

Ruben has $850 in the bank. He deposits his paycheck of $102.75 every Monday,and he spends about $70.25 each week.. This means that the total amount after x weeks would be

z = 850 + 102.75x - 70.25x

z = 850 + 32.5x

To determine the number of weeks before the amount in both accounts will becomes the same, we would equate y to z. It becomes

37.5x + 750= 850 + 32.5x

37.5x - 32.5x = 850 - 750

5x = 100

x = 100/5 = 20

A store brought a case of disposable cameras for $300. The store's profit p on the cameras is a function of the number c of came
rewona [7]

Answer:

Range: {-300, -210, 0, 72}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Cost price of each camera = $300

The function for profit 'p' is given as:

p=6c-300

Where, 'p' is the profit and 'c' is the number of cameras sold.

The domain of the function is: {0, 15, 50, 62}

Now, range is the output of the above function for the given domain.

Here, 'c' is the independent variable and hence the domain.

So, plugging in the values of 'c' in the above function will give the set of values of range.

For c=0, the profit is given as:

p(0)=6(0)-300\\p(0)=-300

For c=15, the profit is given as:

p(15)=6(15)-300\\p(15)=90-300=-210

For c=50, the profit is given as:

p(50)=6(50)-300\\p(50)=300-300=0

For c=62, the profit is given as:

p(62)=6(62)-300\\p(62)=372-300=72

Therefore, the range of the given function is: {-300, -210, 0, 72}

The above range represents the profit of the store when 'c' number of cameras are sold. The domain represents the number of cameras that are sold by the store.

So, negative profit means the store has a loss on selling that number cameras.

The store suffers loss upto 50 cameras sold. When the number of cameras sold is 50, there is neither loss not profit. At this point, total cost price equals total selling price. This is also break even point.

After this point, the store will have a net profit. So, for 62 cameras sold, the net profit of the store is $72.
