Answer:
Natalie bought 500 apples at $0.40 each, then she pays $0.40 500 times, this means that the total cost of the 500 apples is:
Cost = 500*$0.40 = $200
Now she threw away n apples from the 500 apples, then the number of apples that she has now is:
apples = 500 - n
And she sells the remaining apples for $0.70 each.
a) The amount that she gets by selling the apples is:
Revenue = (500 - n)*$0.70
b) We know that she did not make a loss, then the revenue must be larger than the cost, this means that:
cost ≤ revenue
$200 ≤ (500 - n)*$0.70
c) We need to solve the inequality for n.
$200 ≤ (500 - n)*$0.70
$200/$0.70 ≤ (500 - n)
285.7 ≤ 500 - n
n + 285.7 ≤ 500
n ≤ 500 - 285.7
n ≤ 214.3
Then the maximum value of n must be equal or smaller than 214.3
And n is a whole number, then we can conclude that the maximum number of rotten apples can be 214.

Answer:
im not the best at algebra but
2a+3b+4c
Step-by-step explanation:
subtract
(2a−3b+4c) from the sum of (a+3b−4c),(4a−b+9c) and (−2b+3c−a).
add
=(a+3b−4c)+(4a−b+9c)+(−2b+3c−a)
=(a+4a−a)+(3b−b−2b)+(−4c+9c+3c)
=4a+8c
then subtract
=(4a+8c)−(2a−3b+4c)
=4a+8c−2a+3b−4c
=2a+3b+4c
Answer:
Number of people that can be served 7 ladles = 100 people
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that;
Initial number of ladles proposed per person = 5
Number of persons to be fed based on 5 ladles = 140 persons
Thus, amount of ladles based on that data is;
140 people x 5 ladle/1 person = 700 ladles full of soup
Now, since the cook decides to give 7 ladles full of soup to each person, the number of people that can be fed will now be;
700 ladles ÷ 7 ladles/person = 100 persons
