Answer:

200 muffins

Step-by-step explanation:

The selling price of each muffin = $2

The cost price of each muffin = $1.40

The price of electricity = $120

If the number of muffins that Jenny sells in a day is x, then, Jenny's total cost in a day is:

120 + (1.4 * x) = 120 + 1.4x

and the total sales earnings in a day for x muffins will be:

2 * x = 2x

To break even, the total costs in a day must equal to the total earnings. That is;

2x =  120 + 1.4x

Solving this:

2x - 1.4x = 120\\\\\\0.6x = 120\\\\\\x = 120/0.6\\\\\\x = 200

She must sell 200 muffins in a day to break even.

Suppose you are given that p = 2q+1 and that p = 8.
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

We conclude that the following statements can be proved such as:

  • 2q+1 = 8    

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

p = 2q+1

Given

p = 8

IF WE SUBSTITUTE p=2q+1 in p=8

Now, substituting p = 2q+1 in the expression p=8

p = 8

2q+1 = 8         ∵ p = 2q+1

Therefore, we conclude that the following statements can be proved such as:

  • 2q+1 = 8

Figure out if the figure is volume or surface area.​<br><br>(and the cut out cm is 4cm)
velikii [3]

Answer:

Surface area of the box = 168 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of cardboard needed = Surface area of the box

Since the given box is in the shape of a triangular prism,

Surface area of the prism = 2(surface area of the triangular bases) + Area of the three rectangular lateral sides

Surface area of the triangular base = \frac{1}{2}(\text{Base})(\text{height})

                                                           = \frac{1}{2}(6)(4)

                                                           = 12 cm²

Surface area of the rectangular side with the dimensions of (6cm × 9cm),

= Length × width

= 6 × 9

= 54 cm²

Area of the rectangle with the dimensions (9cm × 5cm),

= 9 × 5

= 45 cm²

Area of the rectangle with the dimensions (9cm × 5cm),

= 9 × 5

= 45 cm²

Surface area of the prism = 2(12) + 54 + 45 + 45

                                           = 24 + 54 + 90

                                           = 168 cm²

Hi how do I solve this simultaneous equation
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

M (-3, -5/2)

N (3, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the first equation for x.

4y = x − 7

x = 4y + 7

Substitute into the second equation.

x² + xy = 4 + 2y²

(4y + 7)² + (4y + 7)y = 4 + 2y²

Simplify.

16y² + 56y + 49 + 4y² + 7y = 4 + 2y²

18y² + 63y + 45 = 0

2y² + 7y + 5 = 0

Factor.

(y + 1) (2y + 5) = 0

y = -1 or -5/2

Plug back into the first equation to find x.

x = 4(-1) + 7 = 3

x = 4(-5/2) + 7 = -3

M (-3, -5/2)

N (3, -1)
