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

Given:

∠PRS and ∠VUW are supplementary.

To prove:

Line TV || Line QS

Solution:

Step 1: Given

∠PRS and ∠VUW are supplementary.

Step 2: By the definition of supplementary angles

m\angle {PRS}+m\angle {VUW}=180^{\circ}

Step 3: Angles forming a linear pair sum to 180°

m\angle {PRS}+m\angle {SRU}=180^{\circ}

Step 4: By transitive property of equality

step 2 = step 3

m\angle {PRS}+m\angle {VUW}=m\angle {PRS}+m\angle {SRU}

Step 5: By algebra cancel the common terms in both side.

{m} \angle {VUW}={m} \angle{SRU}

Step 6: By converse of corresponding angles postulate

Line TV || Line QS

Hence proved.
