Winston would need to sell 14 more hot dogs to earn $175

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

Winston earns $140 by selling 56 hot dogs
He is using the same rate for the cost of one hot dog
He want to earn $175

We need to find how many more hot dogs would Winston need to sell to earn $175

∵ The he sold 56 hot dogs for $140

- Find the price of each hot dog by dividing 140 by 56

∴ The price of each hot dog = 140 ÷ 56 = 2.5

∴ The price of each hot dog is $2.5

∵ He need to earn $175

∵ He sells all hot dogs by the same price

- Divide 175 by 2.5 to find the number of the hot dogs

∵ 175 ÷ 2.5 = 70

∴ He must sell 70 hot dogs to earn $175

∵ He already sold 56

- Subtract 56 from 70 to find how many more hot dogs he

needs to sell

∵ 70 - 56 = 14

∴ He must sell another 14 hot dogs to earn that money

Winston would need to sell 14 more hot dogs to earn $175

1. Based on the information in the table, is the cost of the apples proportional to the weight of apples?

lina2011 [118]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When a number of similar calculations are required, a spreadsheet can reduce the tedium.

1. The price is a constant $1.88 per pound, so is proportional to the weight.

_____

2. The price is not proportional to the number of toppings.

The cost of the pizza is $8.99 plus $1.50 per topping. The base cost being non-zero ensures that the overall cost is not proportional to the number of toppings.

Find f(x) and g(x) so the function can be expressed as y = f(g(x)).

DanielleElmas [232]

$\bf \begin{cases}
f(x)=\cfrac{8}{x}+4\\\\
g(x)=x^2
\end{cases}\qquad f(\ g(x)\ )=\cfrac{8}{\underline{g(x)}}+4\implies f(\ g(x)\ )=\cfrac{8}{\underline{x^2}}+4$
