World Bank's threshold for poverty is $1.25 per person per day. 
For a family of four this gives:
Daily income = (number of people) * threshold
Daily income = 4 * $1.25
Daily income = $5
For a year this is:
Yearly income = (daily income) *365
Yearly income = $5 *365
Yearly income = $1825

U.S. poverty threshold is set at $29000. Portion of threshold can be calculated as:
Portion\text{ }of\text{ }threshold= \frac{Poverty\text{ }threshold\text{ }(World\text{ }Bank)}{Poverty\text{ }threshold\text{ }(U.S.)} *100\% \\  \\ Portion\text{ }of\text{ }threshold= \frac{1825}{29000} *100\% \\  \\ Portion\text{ }of\text{ }threshold=6.29\%

The poverty threshold measured by World Bank is 6.29% of the U.S. poverty threshold.

marta [7]

Let's first find the number of apple pies.

apple pies = 65 crates x 43 apple pies per crate = 2795 apples pies

If each apple pie cost $12 then...

money from apple pies = 2795 apple pies x $12 = $33540

total pies sold = 2795 apple pie + 121 boxes x 76 sweet potato pies = 11991 pies

The second statement is:

B: a + b = b + a

Which is the commutative property, so we know that this statement is true.

<h3>Which statement is always true?</h3>

Remember that for integer numbers, we have the following properties:

  • Commutative property: A + B = B + A
  • Associative property: (A + B) + C = A + (B + C)

Now, in this case we know that a and b are integer numbers, first we can see that the second statement is:

B: a + b = b + a

Which is the commutative property, so we know that this statement is true.

The other 3 statements are false. You can see it by evaluating a = 0 and b = 1.
