Formulas:
Year 1: 328,000 (sales) - 117,000 (expense) = 211,000 (profit)
Year 2: 565,000 (sales) - x (expense) = y (profit)
Net Profit: 211,000 + y = 113,000
Math
211,000 (profit y1) + 565,000 (sales y2) = 776,000
776,000 - 113,000 (net profit) = -663,000 (expenses)
Confirm:
Net Profit: 211,000 + y = 113,000 (listed in formulas, just a reminder)
Plug in: 565,000 (y2 sales) - 663,000 (our solution) = -98,000
211,000 (y1 net) + -98,000 (our plug in) = 113,000 (2 year net profit given to us)
So you know that he earns $15 per hour so we can write that as 15h, h = # of hours worked
We also know he has to earn AT LEAST $200, so putting all this together we form the inequality(=< means less than or equal to): 15h =< 200
so now we have to solve for h (number of hours worked):
15h =< 200
(divide both sides by 15)
h =< 13 1/3
So, the painter must work a minimum of 13 and 1/3 hours to earn at least $200.
One liter is equal to 1000 milliliters. Use the conversion to find your answer. 1000 milliliters / 5mL per tube = 200 tubes
