Answer:

26 customers

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent customers entering as y and those buying hot dogs as x

y = 4x + 9

y = 3x + 35

Required

Determine the number of people buying hotdogs (x)

Substitute 4x + 9 for y in the second equation

4x + 9 = 3x + 35

Collect Like Terms

4x - 3x = 35 - 9

x = 26

zaharov [31]

Answer:

  y = -2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

For such a problem as this, you can replace all sine or cosine functions with their midline value of 0. Then you have ...

  f(x) = 0 -2.5

which simplifies to ...

  f(x) = -2.5

You can leave the equation like this, or write it as ...

  y = -2.5

_____

Perhaps you can see that the midline is the value of any constant added to a sine or cosine function.

ali buys 120 cans of drink for a total of £30. He wants to make a profit of 40%. What price should he charge each can for him to
Dafna11 [192]
30*(100%+40%)
30*140%
140% as a decimal is (140/100) which is 1.4
30*1.4=42
42/120=0.32.

Ali should sell each can for $0.32

Hope this helps :)
