Answer:

There were 26 students in his class and the teacher had 83 ml of the solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mr. Kohl has a "x" amount of solution, if he divides it by the number of students "n" he'll give each student 3 milliliters  and have a left over of 5 milliliters. If the amount of solution Mr. Kohl had was "x + 21" then he'd be able to give each student 4 milliliters of the solution. From these informations we have:

x = 3*n + 5

(x + 21)/n = 4

x + 21 = 4*n

x = 4*n - 21

Now that we have two equations and two variables we can solve the system of equations, as seen bellow:

3*n + 5 = 4*n - 21

3*n - 4*n = -21 - 5

-n = -26

n = 26

x = 4*26 - 21 = 83 ml

There were 26 students in his class and the teacher had 83 ml of the solution.

A bicycle store costs ​$2250 per month to operate. The store pays an average of ​$40 per bike. The average selling price of each
lesantik [10]

Answer:

75

Step-by-step explanation:

Given That :

Operation cost = $2250 per month

Purchase price per bike = $40

Average selling price per bike = $70

How many bicycles must the store sell each month to break even ;

Break even point = point at which there is net profit / loss = 0

Let number of bicycles store must sell = x

Operation cost + (purchase price * Number of bicycles) = selling price * Number of bicycles

2250 + 40x = 70x

2250 = 70x - 40x

2250 = 30x

x = 2250 / 30

x = 75

To break even 75 bicycles must be sold
