Here you are giving only the amount they want to raise (namely profit times number of magazines sold), and here you are also giving Money they want to raise... So clarifying, the money they want to raise, should include the money they will spend on buying the magazines (there is no statement saying they found them, or were given the magazines, so a cost should be involved) 

Now if they are only making the count of "Field trip costs X amount of money, and given we have to make a profit of $5.5, How many must we sell?" then the equation should be n=X/5.5 

Should the story be, how much money must they raise to have a profit of 5.5 on each magazine and still have enough for the field trip, then you have a different equation which varies only in adding the cost of each magazine, either case, M should be defined not as money they need to raise (cause here they will be short on their goal) but Money they must earn. And again, you should rewrite your equation to be: 

M=Amount they must raise 
C=Cost per magazine 
n=Number of magazines 
p=profit $5.5 per magazine 

C+p=M/n 

And rewriting the previous they should make: 

n(C+p)=M -----> n(C+5.5)=M <span>m/n = 5.50 </span>
<span>m/n x n = 5.50 x n //// multiply each side by n </span>

<span>m = 5.5n</span>

Answer: n=m/p


Step-by-step explanation:

P = M/N is the original equation given to us. Multiply both sides by N and we end up with N*P = M. We multiply both sides by N to undo the division. Multiplication is the opposite of division.


The idea is to isolate N. In other words, get it all by itself on its own side. To do this, we undo the multiplication done to N. So we divide both sides by P.


note: We know that the profit per magazine is P = 5.50, but we don't know how much money they want to raise (i.e., we don't know the value of M). This is why we can't find the actual numeric value for N.

I need help ASAP. If TU=10 and ST=15, What is the measure of the radius of the circle?
Svetach [21]

Answer:

5.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Use pythag to get SU. 10^2 + x^2 = 15^2, this will give you x = 11.2. 11.2 is the diameter of SU so divide it by 2 to get the radius. 11.2/2= 5.6.

marin [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, to be perfectly honest in my humble opinion, of course without offending anyone who thinks different from my point of view but also by looking into this matter in a different perspective and without condemning one's view and by trying to make it objectified and considering each and everyone's valid opinion, I honestly believe that I completely forgot what I was going to say.
