ut bags sold B, and number of bags sold B depends on the number of visitors V to the amusement park. The following equations represent her scenario:
P = 10B - 150

B = 8(V - 5)

Write an equation for profit based on visitors.
P = ________

Write an equation for Profit using your answer from part (a).

Simplified Expression:

Answer:

  a) P = 10(8(V -5)) -150

  b) P = 80V -550

  c) P = 3450

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Use the expression for B to substitute into the equation for P:

  P = 10(8(V -5)) -150

__

b) Eliminate parentheses and collect terms.

  P = 10(8V -40) -150

  P = 80V -400 -150

  P = 80V -550

__

c) Substitute 50 for V and do the arithmetic.

  P = 80·50 -550

  P = 3450

a 5th grade volleyball team scored 32 points in one game. of those points 2/8 were scored in the second half. how many points we
Degger [83]

Answer:

Number of points scored in the first half of the match is 24 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total point scored in the volleyball game = 32

Let us assume the points scored in the first half = m

and the point scored on the second half = 2/8 of (Total points)

= \frac{2}{8}  \times  32  = 8

⇒ The number of points s cored in the second - half  =  8 points

Now, Points in FIRST half+ Points in SECOND  half=  Total Points

⇒ m+ 8 = 32

or, m  = 32 - 8 =  24

⇒ m = 24

Hence, the number of points scored in the first half is 24 points.

The set of the consecutive odd numbers 1, 3, 5, 7, ... , N has a sum of 400. How many numbers are in the set?
Amanda [17]

Well, we could try adding up odd numbers, and look to see when we reach 400. But I'm hoping to find an easier way.

First of all ... I'm not sure this will help, but let's stop and notice it anyway ...
An odd number of odd numbers (like 1, 3, 5) add up to an odd number, but
an even number of odd numbers (like 1,3,5,7) add up to an even number.
So if the sum is going to be exactly 400, then there will have to be an even
number of items in the set.

Now, let's put down an even number of odd numbers to work with,and see
what we can notice about them:

         1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15 .

Number of items in the set . . . 8
Sum of all the items in the set . . . 64

Hmmm.  That's interesting.  64 happens to be the square of 8 . 
Do you think that might be all there is to it ?

Let's check it out:

Even-numbered lists of odd numbers:

1, 3                                   Items = 2, Sum = 4
1, 3, 5, 7                           Items = 4, Sum = 16
1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11                 Items = 6, Sum = 36
1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15 . . Items = 8, Sum = 64 .

Amazing !  The sum is always the square of the number of items in the set !

For a sum of 400 ... which just happens to be the square of 20,
we just need the <em><u>first 20 consecutive odd numbers</u></em>.

I slogged through it on my calculator, and it's true.

I never knew this before.  It seems to be something valuable
to keep in my tool-box (and cherish always).
