Answer:

Number of caramels = 20

number cremes = 30 - 20 = 10

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Selling cost of each box = $12.50

Number of pieces of candies held in a box = 30

Cost of producing caramel = $0.25

Cost of producing cremes = $0.45

Now,

let the number of caramels be 'x'

Thus,

Number of cremes = 30 - x

Profit = Selling price - Cost

3 = $12.50 - [ 0.25x + 0.45(30 - x) ]

or

[ 0.25x + 0.45(30 - x) ] = 12.50 - 3

or

0.25x + 13.5 - 0.45x = 9.50

or

-0.20x = 9.50 - 13.5

or

-0.20x = - 4

or

x = 20

Hence,

Number of caramels = 20

number cremes = 30 - 20 = 10

Alex787 [66]

Answer:

correct option is B. about 30 years

Explanation:

given data

real per capita GDP west = $10,000

annual growth rate = 2.33%

real per capita GDP east = $2,500

annual growth rate = 7%

to find out

How many years will it take for East  to catch up GDP of West

solution

we know here that future value is equal to real GDP of west after time  will be

future value = real per capita GDP west × rate^{t}

future value = 10000 × (1+0.0233)^{t} .....1

and

future value = real per capita GDP east × rate^{t}

future value = 2500 × (1+0.07)^{t} .....2

compare equation 1 and 2

10000 × (1+0.0233)^{t}  = 2500 × (1+0.07)^{t}

4 (1.0233)^{t}  =  (1.07)^{t}

t = about 30 years

so correct option is B. about 30 years
