A vendor prepares 100.00 hotdogs every day and sells at $20.00/piece. For each hot dog, he spends $12.00 in the raw material. Ad

ditionally he spends $1.00 for packing each hotdog and monthly $50.00, $20.00, $10.00 as food truck rent, electricity and other expenses respectively. Lost sale are taken as $1 per unhappy customer. Leftover hotdogs can be sold for $5.00/piece. On a particular day in June it rained heavily so the vendor was able to sell only 80.00 hot dogs. Determine the vendor’s profit for that day

Answer:

$397.34 (if he sold the 20 leftover hot dogs), $297.34 if he didn't.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are going to assume that a month has 30 days.

  • First, we are going to see how much money the vendor got from selling the 80 hot dogs. He sold 80 hot dogs at 20 dollars/piece = 1600 dollars.

  • We need to subtract the amount of money he spent in each hot dog (12 dollars in raw material plus one dollar for packing): 13 dollars x 100 hot dogs he prepared = 1300 dollars

  • He also spends a total of 80 dollars per month in truck rent, electricity and other expenses. If we divide this by the amount of days per month we have: 80/30 = 2.66

  • The problem doesn't tell us that there were unhappy customers that day so that amount is zero.

  • We are going to assume that the vendor sold the remaining 20 hot dogs at 5 dollars/piece. 20 x 5 = 100.

Thus, the profit for that day is:

1600 - 1300 - 2.66 + 100 = 397.34

<u>(</u><u>Note:</u><u> If the vendor did not sell the leftover hot dogs and he actually only sold 80 hot dogs, then the profit would be: 1600 - 1300 - 2.66 = 297.34)</u>

What is 150,000,000 in scientific notion, PLEASE answer asap im so far behind!!
dybincka [34]

To write a number in scientific notation, you need to write the number as a product of a number from 1 to under 10 multiplied by a integer power of 10.

First, what number from 1 to under 10 can you get out of the digits of 150,000,000 just by changing the decimal point? The answer is 1.5 since 1.5 is greater than or equal to 1 and less than 10.

150,000,000 = 1.5 * 100,000,000

Now we change 100,000,000 into a power of 10. A 1 followed by a number of zeros is the same as 10 to the power equal to the number of zeros. In 100,000,000 the 1 is followed by 8 zeros, so 100,000,000 = 10^8.

150,000,000 = 1.5 * 10^8

Suppose that 200 students are randomly selected from a local college campus to investigate the use of cell phones in classrooms.
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

It would change to 0.04802

Step-by-step explanation:

from this question we have that n became 400

40% of 400

= 160

p* = 160/400

= 0.4

1 - p* =

= 1 - 0.4

= 0.6

at confidence level,

1 - 0.95

= 0.05

alpha/2 = 0.025

z= 1.96

<u>margin of error. E</u>

= 1.96 x √[(0.4 x 0.6)/400]

= 1.96 x 0.0245

= 0.04802

M.E = 0.04802

Zander read 13 3/4pages in 1/4 of an hour. Sydney read 43 1/3 pages in 2/3 of an hour. At these rates, would Zander or Sydney re
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

At these rates Sydney read 10 pages per hour more than Zander.

Step-by-step explanation:

Zander read 13\frac{3}{4} pages in \frac{1}{4} of an hour.

Therefore, pages read by Zander in 1 hour = \frac{\text{Total pages read}}{\text{Total time taken}}

= \frac{13\frac{3}{4}}{\frac{1}{4}}

= \frac{55}{4}\times \frac{4}{1}

= 55 pages per hour

Sydney read 43\frac{1}{3} pages in \frac{2}{3} of an hours.

Pages read by Sydney in 1 hour = \frac{43\frac{1}{3}}{\frac{2}{3} }

= \frac{130}{3}\times \frac{3}{2}

= 65 pages per hour

Therefore, number of pages read more by Sydney as compared to Zander,

= 65 - 55

= 10 pages per hour

At these rates Sydney read 10 pages per hour more than Zander.
