Answer:

45 dozen must be sold to make a profit of $90

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost price of 1 dozen of flowers = $3

Selling price  of 1 dozen of flowers = $5

Profit = SP - CP

Profit = $5-$3

Profit = $2

So, Profit per dozen = $90

No. of dozen must be sold to make a profit of $90 = \frac{90}{2}=45

Hence 45 dozen must be sold to make a profit of $90

The profit y (in dollars) for a business from selling x coats is represented by y=56x . Graph the equation.
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

The graph of the equation is also attached.

From the graph, it is clear that at x = 0, the value of y = 0

Hence, the line passes through the origin with the y-intercept 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of the line equation

y = mx+b

where

  • m is the slope
  • b is the y-intercept

Given that the profit y (in dollars) for a business from selling x coats is represented by the equation

y=56x

comparing with the slope-intercept form of the line equation

m = 56

<u>Determining the y-intercept</u>

We know that the value of the y-intercept can be determined by setting x = 0 and determining the corresponding value of y.

substitute x = 0 in the equation

y = 56(0)

y = 0

Thus, the y-intercept b = 1

Thus,

The equation y = 5x has:

  • The slope m = 56
  • The y-intercept b = 1

The graph of the equation is also attached.

From the graph, it is clear that at x = 0, the value of y = 0

Hence, the line passes through the origin with the y-intercept 0.

An isosceles triangle △ABC with the base BC is inscribed in a circle. Find the measures of angles of the triangle, if measure of
____ [38]

Answer:

  • angle at A: 51°
  • base angles: 64.5°

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of the inscribed angle BAC is half the measure of the intercepted arc BC, so is 102°/2 = 51°.

The base angles  at B and C are the complement of half this value, or ...

  90° -(51°/2) = 64.5°

The angle measures in the triangle are ...

  ∠A = 51°

  ∠B = ∠C = 64.5°
