The number is 4/5 or 0.8.

let x be the number.

12 - 2x = 8x + 4

-12 -8x   -8x   -4

-10x = -8

-10x\-10 = -8/-10

x = 4/5 or 0.8

A company that is selling computer tablets has determined that it regularly makes a net profit of $180 for each computer tablet
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

Considering the prediction of people who will fill out the form and receive the refund, the company should expect its net profit to drop to:

  • <u>$174.6 per computer tablet</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

The benefit per tablet before the rebate program is $180 per computer tablet, however, once the rebate program is implemented, 18% of people who purchase their computer tablet are expected to complete the form and obtain the VISA card, which would reduce the benefit as shown below:

  • 18% benefit from computer tablets = original benefit - refund value.
  • 18% benefit from computer tablets = $180 - $30 = $150

With this we identify that 18% of computer tablets will have a benefit reduced to $150, however, as the remaining percentage of tablets (82%) will still have the benefit of $180, the general benefit must be calculated to have a single value, as it's shown in the following:

  • Overall benefit = Percentage of tablets with reimbursement * Benefit of tablets with reimbursement + Percentage of tablets without reimbursement * Benefit of tablets without reimbursement.
  • General profit = 18% * 150 + 82% * 180
  • <u>General profit = $ 174.6 </u>

By having a $ 30 rebate on 18% of the tablets, the overall benefit drops to $174.6.
