If you want to simplify it it would be 3/4

Find a common factor (5) and divide each number by that to get your simplified fraction!

Hope this helps!

30 former classmates gathered to celebrate the anniversary of their school graduation. Each of them greeted and shook hands with

solmaris [256]

Let's pick one person at random and call it the 'first'.

That person shakes hands with 29 other classmates.

Take another person different from the first, we'll call him the 'second'. Since he has already shaken hands with the first, he shakes hands with 28 other classmates.

The 'third' person will likewise shake hands with 27 other classmates, and so on.

Hence, the total number of handshakes is 29+28+27+...+2+1 = 29*30/2=435 handshakes

A bicycle store costs $3500 per month to operate. The store pays an average of $75 per bike. The average selling price of each

vfiekz [6]

Answer: the store needs to sell 50 bicycles each month to break even

Step-by-step explanation:

The average selling price of each bicycle is $145.

When we talk of break even, we are referring to the point at which the income being accrued from a business is equal to the total cost of running the business. At this point, their is no profit and there is no loss.

From the example information given,

Total cost of running the business will be

cost of operating the bicycle store + the total amount the store pays per bike.

cost of operating the bicycle store

= $3500 per month

The store pays an average of $75 per bicycle. If the store buys x bicycles per month, then,

Total the total amount the store pays per bike = 75 × x = 75x

Total cost of running the business per month

= 3500 + 75x - - - - - - -1

The average selling price of each bicycle is $145. This means that the selling price for x bicycles will be

145 × x = 145x

Therefore , total income is $145x

To break even,

145x = 3500 + 75x

145x - 75x = 3500

70x = 3500

x = 3500 / 70 = 50

Jace is a songwriter who collects royalties in his songs whenever they are played in a commercial or a movie. Jace will earn $50

VashaNatasha [74]

Jace's song were played on 8 commercials and 2 movies

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Simultaneous Linear Equations could be solved by using several methods such as :

<em>Elimination Method</em>
<em>Substitution Method</em>
<em>Graph Method</em>

If we have two linear equations with 2 variables x and y , then we need to find the value of x and y that satisfying the two equations simultaneously.

Let us tackle the problem!

<em>Number of Commercials = C</em>

<em>Number of Movies = M</em>

$\texttt{ }$

<em>Jaces songs were played on 6 more commercials than movies.</em>

$\boxed{C = 6 + M}$ → <em>Equation 1</em>

$\texttt{ }$

<em>Jace will earn $50 every time one of his songs is played in a commercial and he will earn $140 every time one of his songs is played in a movie.</em>

<em>His total earnings in the royalties from all commercials and movies was $680.</em>

$\boxed{50C + 140M = 680}$ → <em>Equation 2</em>

$\texttt{ }$

<em>Equation 1 ↔ Equation 2 :</em>

$50C + 140M = 680$

$50 ( 6 + M ) + 140M = 680$

$300 + 50M + 140M = 680$

$190M = 680 - 300$

$190M = 380$

$M = 380 \div 190$

$M = 2$

$\texttt{ }$

$C = 6 + M$

$C = 6 + 2$

$C = 8$

$\texttt{ }$

<h2>Conclusion:</h2>

The number of commercials and the number of movies in which Jaces songs where played is respectively 8 and 2

Pringles is planning their sales force spending for the next year. Each of their sales people spends about 3400 hours annually a

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

459 sales people.

Step-by-step explanation

Time per call (t) = 45 min = 0.75 h

Hours per sales person (H) = 3,400 hours

Number of customers (n) = 40,000 customers

Call frequency (f)= 52 calls per year

The total number of sales people (S) needed, is given by the total time spent on calls for the year, divided by the amount of hours each person spends on sale:

$S=\frac{40,000*0.75*52}{3,400}\\ S=458.8$

Rounding up to the next whole person, Pringles needs 459 sales people.
