They had to pay $75 just to use the table, before they ever sold a basket.
How many baskets do they have to sell to earn that $75 back ?

Each basket costs them $12 to make, and they sell it for $20.
So every time they sell a basket, they earn (20 - 12) = $8 .

How many times do they have to earn $8 in order to earn back the $75 ?

1 basket . . . . . . 1 x $8 = $  8 . . . . . not enough
2 baskets . . . . . 2 x $8 = $16 . . . . . not enough
3 baskets . . . . . 3 x $8 = $24 . . . . . not enough
4 baskets . . . . . 4 x $8 = $32 . . . . . not enough
5 baskets . . . . . 5 x $8 = $40 . . . . . not enough.
6 baskets . . . . . 6 x $8 = $48 . . . . . not enough
7 baskets . . . . . 7 x $8 = $56 . . . . . not enough

8 baskets . . . . . 8 x $8 = $64 . . . . . not enough

9 baskets . . . . . 9 x $8 = $72 . . . . . ooh so close, but not quite enough

10 baskets . . . . 10 x $8 = $80 . . . That's it ! 
                                                             Finally, they earned back the $75,
                                                             and they're $5 ahead of all of
                                                             their expenses.

The slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is y = 3x - 4 is
trapecia [35]

Answer:

m = -1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 3x-4

This is in slope intercept form

y = mx+b  m is the slope and b is the y intercept

The slope is 3 and the y intercept is -4

We want the slope of a line that is perpendicular

Perpendicular lines have slopes that multiply to -1

Let m be the slope of the line that is perpendicular

3 * m = -1

Divide each side by 3

3m/3 = -1/3

m = -1/3

Multiply the polynomials (5x^2+4x-4)(4x^3-2x+6)<br> Explain your steps!!
Lapatulllka [165]
So distribute using distributive property
a(b+c)=ab+ac so

split it up
(5x^2+4x-4)(4x^3-2x+6)=(5x^2)(4x^3-2x+6)+(4x)(4x^3-2x+6)+(-4)(4x^3-2x+6)=[(5x^2)(4x^3)+(5x^2)(-2x)+(5x^2)(6)]+[(4x)(4x^3)+(4x)(-2x)+(4x)(6)]+[(-4)(4x^3)+(-4)(-2x)+(-4)(6)]=(20x^5)+(-10x^3)+(30x^2)+(16x^4)+(-8x^2)+(24x)+(-16x^3)+(8x)+(-24)
group like terms
[20x^5]+[16x^4]+[-10x^3-16x^3]+[30x^2-8x^2]+[24x+8x]+[-24]=20x^5+16x^4-26x^3+22x^2+32x-24

the asnwer is 20x^5+16x^4-26x^3+22x^2+32x-24
