Answer: b) they loaded 112356 lbs of cargo

Step-by-step explanation:

When a boat or an object floats in water, the volume of water that it displaces is equivalent to its weight.

When moving into the port, the cargo boat displaced 2200 ft³ of water. Since the density of water is 62.42 lb/ft³ and mass = density × volume, then the mass of the cargo boat on entering the port is

2200 × 62.42 = 137324 lbs

On leaving the port, it displaces 4000 ft³ of water. The mass of the cargo boat on leaving the port is

4000 × 62.42 = 249680 lbs

The difference in both masses is

249680 - 137324 = 112356 lbs

Therefore, they loaded 112356 lbs of cargo

To answer this question, we have the start-up costs of $ 52,000

A monthly inflation of $ 0 is assumed

Operating costs  are $680

The daily gain  is $960

For the Part A.

The inequality that this situation represents

 960d-680d>52000

So:

d(960-680)>52000

Where d represents the number of days.

For the Part B.

To start earning, you must replace all the initial investment and cover the expenses per day. The time that must pass for this to happen is obtained by clearing "d" from the inequality.


 d>\frac{52000}{960-680}

d> 185.71 days

Then, the sum of the net profits will be greater than the initial investment after 186 days of starting the business.
