Iliana is correct since an integer means a whole number that is not a fraction, which includes negative AND positive numbers. If s=4 than -s is negative (-4) But if we plug in a negative integer, like -5, the negative signs are eliminated and it becomes positive, therefore Alonso is wrong (-s=-(-5)=5) If the question was about a natural number Alonso would have been right since natural numbers are only from 0 and above

In 2001, a company marketed 730,000 units of its product. In 2001 its yearly volume was 50% of its volume for 2004. The 2004 vol

Answer:

4000 units

Step-by-step explanation:

In 2001 the total number of marketed units= 730,000

If this number represents 50% of what was marketed in 2004, then the total number of units marketed in 2004 was:

(100/50)× 730,000=1460000

To get the number for each of the 365 days in 2004 we divide the total for 2004 by 365

1460000/365= 4000 units
