Answer:

C = 75 + 0.17x and R = 2x

2x - (75 + 0.17x) > 0

x ≥ 41

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost to make the cupcakes is a fixed $75 plus $0.17 per cupcakes made and the selling price of each cupcake is $2.00.

Part A: Now, the equation for the cost, C, for making x cupcakes is  

C = 75 + 0.17x ......... (1)

Again the equation for the revenue, R, from selling x cupcakes is

R = 2x ............ (2)

Part B: So, the inequality that could be solved to find the number of cupcakes, x, that must be made and sold to make a profit is  

R - C > 0

2x - (75 + 0.17x) > 0 ......... (3)

Part C: Solving inequality (3) we get

(2 - 0.17)x > 75

⇒ x > 40.98

⇒ x ≥ 41 {Since, x can not be a fraction}

If f(x)= 6x+7, determine the value of f(-5)
Juliette [100K]
You would substitute or plug in -5 wherever there is an x in the equation.

f(-5) = 6(-5) + 7
f(-5)= -30 + 7
f(-5) = -23

You and two friends visit a pizza shop. There are 15 toppings. 5 toppings are meat and the rest are vegetable. Each of you order
andrew-mc [135]
We know that
total toppings=15
<span>meat toppings=5
</span>
<span>The first person has a
5/15 chance of getting a meat topping.

The second person has a
4/14 chance because there are no repeats,

The third person would have a
3/13 chance.
Since there are three multiply
5/15 * 4/14 * 3/13.=60/2730
</span>60/2730-------> divide by 30 both members------> 2/91

the answer is
2/91

Can someone solve this its probably easy but i dont know
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A={26,30,32,44,48}

B={22,26,34}

A∩B=26

number of elements=1

elements in ξ are {22,24,26,28,30,32,34,36,38,40,42,44,46,48}

number of elements  in ξ=14

P(A∩B)=1/14

I can't draw venn diagram but i give hint

A={30,32,44,48}+{26}

B={22,34}+{26}

A∩B={26}

A scale reports a 15-pound weight as weighing 12.375 pounds.

B. Accuracy is if it's right or not. Precision is how many decimal places it goes out to. So it is precise but not accurate.
