A computer company has a special going in which all customers receive a free monitor and scanner with the purchase of a new comp
uter. It costs the company $393.29 to make each computer, $151.44 to make each monitor, and $46.39 to make each scanner. The computers are then sold, with the free monitor and free scanner, for $1,196.91 each. Approximately how much profit will the company make if 408 customers take advantage of their special? (Round to the nearest 50 dollars.) A. $300,000.00 B. $550,000.00 C. $240,000.00 D. $380,000.00
Given : At a computer store, a customer is considering 10 different computers, 6 different monitors, 9 different printers and 4 different scanners. We assume that each of the components is compatible with one another and that one of each is to be selected. then by Fundamental counting principle , the number of different computer systems possible is given by :-
10x6x9x4= 2160
Hence, the number of different computer systems possible= 2160The Fundamental Counting Principle is a technique in Mathematics to calculate the number of possible outcomes by multiplying the events together .
