A pharmaceutical company sells bottles of 500 calcium tablets in two dosages: 250 milligram and 500 milligram. Last month, the c

ompany sold 2,200 bottles of 250-milligram tablets and 1,800 bottles of 500-milligram tablets. The total sales revenue was $39,200. The sales team has targeted sales of $44,000 for this month, to be achieved by selling of 2,200 bottles of each dosage. Assuming that the prices of the 250-milligram and 500-milligram bottles remain the same, the price of a 250-milligram bottle is $ and the price of a 500-milligram bottle is $ .

Answer:

The price of 250mg bottle is $8 and the price of 500mg bottle is $12.

Step-by-step explanation:

The company sold last month 250 mg tablets = 2,200 bottles

Bottle of 500 mg tablets = 1,800 bottles

Total sales revenue = $39,200

This month sales team has targeted sales of $44,000 for this month.

They have target of 2,200 bottles of 250 mg tablets that is same as last month.

and 2,200 bottles of 500 mg tablets = 2,200 - 1,800 = 400 more bottles

Now we calculate the price of 500mg tablets by subtracting last month's revenue from this month's target.

price of 400 bottles of 500mg tablets = 44,000 - 39,200 = $4,800

Therefore, the price of one bottle of 500 mg tablet is = \frac{4,800}{400} = $12 (one bottle of 500mg)

Last month they sold 1,800 bottles, so the revenue generated by 500mg bottles = 1,800 × 12 = $21,600

and revenue generated by 2200 bottles of 250mg tablets = 39,200 - 21,600 = $17,600

Therefore, the price of one bottle of 250mg tablets = 17,600 ÷ 2,200 = $8

The price of a 250mg bottle is $8 and the price of a 500mg bottle is $12.

X = 250 mg tabs
y = 500 mg tabs

2200x + 1800y = 39200....multiply by -1
2200x + 2200y = 44000
--------------------------------
-2200x - 1800y = - 39200 (result of multiplying by -1)
2200x + 2200y = 44000
--------------------------------add
400y = 4800
y = 4800/400
y = 12...... the 500 mg tabs (y) costs $ 12 per bottle

2200x + 2200y = 44000
2200x + 2200(12) = 44000
2200x + 26400 = 44000
2200x = 44000 - 26400
2200x = 17600
x = 17600/2200
x = 8 <== the 250 mg tabs (x) costs $ 8 per bottle

Examine the following equation and classify the type of solution.
Viktor [21]

Answer:

<h2>infinitely many solutions</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - 6 = 3x - 6 + 2x     <em>combine like terms</em>

5x - 6 = (3x + 2x) - 6

5x - 6 = 5x - 6         <em>subtract 5x from both sides</em>

-6 = -6        TRUE

Therefore the equation has infinitely many solutions.

From a group of 3 men and 4 women, a delegation of 2 is selected. What is the expected number of men in the delegation?
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

The expected number of men in the delegation is 0.86.

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of men = 3

Number of women = 4

A delegation of 2 is selected.

Let X be the number of men selected. So, the possible values of X are 0,1,2.

P(X=0)=\dfrac{^3C_0\times ^4C_2}{^7C_2}=\dfrac{2}{7}

P(X=1)=\dfrac{^3C_1\times ^4C_1}{^7C_2}=\dfrac{4}{7}

P(X=2)=\dfrac{^3C_2\times ^4C_0}{^7C_2}=\dfrac{1}{7}

The expected number of men in the delegation is

E(x)=0\times P(X=0)+1\times P(X=1)+2\times P(X=2)

E(x)=0\times \dfrac{2}{7}+1\times \dfrac{4}{7}+2\times \dfrac{1}{7}

E(x)=\dfrac{6}{7}

E(x)\approx 0.86

Therefore, the expected number of men in the delegation is 0.86.

Solve for X. Each figure is a parallelogram.
vichka [17]

Answer:

1. x = 8

2. x = 3

3. x = 25

4. x = 6

5. x = 11

6. x = 3

7. x = 6

8. x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent, the length of segment QR is equal to the length of segment PS.

10 = -6 + 2x

Add 6 to each side

10 + 6 = -6 + 6 + 2x

Simplify each side

16 = 2x

Divide both sides by 2

16/2 = 2x/2

Simplify

x = 8

to check if x is correct:

you already know that  segment QR is 10, so your answer needs to be equal to 10

so sement PS is -6x + 2x

-6 + 2x

= -6 + 2(8)

= -6 + 16

= 10

so PS = 10

2. 34x + 5 = 35x + 2

Step 1: Subtract 35x from both sides.

34x + 5 − 35x = 35x + 2 − 35x

−x + 5 = 2

Step 2: Subtract 5 from both sides.

−x + 5 − 5 = 2 − 5

−x = −3

Step 3: Divide both sides by -1.

-x/-1 = -3/-1

Step 4: Simplify

x = 3

3.

115 = 2x + 65

Step 1: Flip the equation.

2x + 65 = 115

Step 2: Subtract 65 from both sides.

2x + 65 − 65 = 115 − 65

2x = 50

Step 3: Divide both sides by 2.

2x/2 = 50/2

x = 25

4.

84 + 16x = 180

84 - 84 + 16x = 180 - 84

16x = 96

16x/16 = 96/16

x = 6

5.

2(3x − 10) = 46

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

2(3x − 10) = 46

(2)(3x) + (2)(−10 )= 46(Distribute)

6x + −20 = 46

6x − 20 = 46

Step 2: Add 20 to both sides.

6x − 20 + 20 = 46 + 20

6x = 66

Step 3: Divide both sides by 6.

6x/6 = 66/6

x = 11

6. RH = 1/2 FH or RH = 2 × FH

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

(2)(12)=13x−2

24=13x+−2

24=13x−2

Step 2: Flip the equation.

13x−2=24

Step 3: Add 2 to both sides.

13x−2+2=24+2

13x=26

Step 4: Divide both sides by 13.

13x/13 = 26/13

x = 3

7.

2x+2=3x−4

Step 1: Subtract 3x from both sides.

2x+2−3x=3x−4−3x

−x+2=−4

Step 2: Subtract 2 from both sides.

−x+2−2=−4−2

−x=−6

Step 3: Divide both sides by -1.

-x/-1 = -6/-1

x = 6

8.

2(2x−6)=28

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

2(2x−6)=28

(2)(2x)+(2)(−6)=28(Distribute)

4x+−12=28

4x−12=28

Step 2: Add 12 to both sides.

4x−12+12=28+12

4x=40

Step 3: Divide both sides by 4.

4x/4 = 40/4

x = 10
