We can model the equation:y = m x + b, where y is the total profit and x is the number of hotdogs sold.The system of equations is:
90 = 40 m + b210 = 80 m + b---------------------b = 90 - 40 m210 = 80 m + 90 - 40 m210 - 90 = 40 m120 = 40 mm = 120 : 40m = 3b = 90 - 40*3b = 90 - 120b = - 30Answer: The equation is y = 3 x - 30

In a study of bat migration habits, 240 male bats and 160 female bats have been tagged. If 100 more female bats are tagged, how
valentinak56 [21]
Remark 
The way you have to set this up is to take the new number for the males and put it over the total for the males and females. The new number for the males / total = 3/5.

Step One
Find the total number of females
100 + 160 = 260 when 100 females have been added to the study.

Step Two 
Find the number of males
The total number of males = 240 + x where x is the number of males to be added.

Step Three
Find the total for both
260 + 240 + x = Total
500 + x = Total.

Step Four
Find the ratio of males to total
(240 + x) / (500 + x) = 3/5   

Step Five
Cross multiply and solve
(240 + x)*5 = (500+x)*3
1200 + 5x = 1500 + 3x    Subtract 1200 from both sides.
5x = 1500 - 1200 + 3x     
5x = 300 + 3x                   Subtract 3x from both sides.
5x - 3x = 300
2x = 300                          Divide by 2 
x = 300  / 2
x = 150

Check
(240 + 150 ) / (500 + 150) = ? 3/5
390 / 650 = ? 3/5
39/65 = ? 3/5  Divide the top and bottom on the left by 13
3/5 = 3/5 and it checks.

WHY CAN'T ANYONE HELP ME? 1. In Michigan, the sales tax rate is 6%. Suppose that an item costs $50.88 including tax. How can we
Aliun [14]

Answer: $48

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are told that in Michigan, the sales tax rate is 6% and that an item costs $50.88 including tax.

Let the cost of the item before tax be x. This means that x plus 6% of x equals to $50.88. This can be mathematically expressed as:

x + (6% of x) = $50.88

x + (6/100 × x) = $50.88

x + (0.06 × x) = $50.88

x + 0.06x = $50.88

1.06x = $50.88

When then divide by the coefficient of x

1.06x/1.06 = #50.88/1.06

x = $48

The price before the tax is $48

The product of 3/4 and 7/8 is less than 7/8?
luda_lava [24]
0.65625 is the decimal product of the fractions 3/4 & 7/8 whereas 7/8 can be simplified to 0.875 in decimal form... comparing both the values, we see that 7/8 is greater than the product of 3/4 and 7/8.
