Answer:

260 eggs per person per year.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that over the last 40 years, the percent decrease in egg consumption in the U.S. is 35%. Forty years ago, the average consumption was 400 eggs per person per year.

To find the average consumption of eggs today, we will find 65% (100%-35%) of 400.

\text{The average consumption of eggs today}=\frac{65}{100}\times 400

\text{The average consumption of eggs today}=65\times 4

\text{The average consumption of eggs today}=260

Therefore, the average consumption of eggs today is 260 eggs per person per year.

Solve the following absolute value equation.<br><br> −8 − 2 |5X – 17| = −14
Levart [38]

If 5x - 17 ≥ 0, then |5x - 17| = 5x - 17 and the equation reduces to

-8 - 2 (5x - 17) = -14

-8 - 10x + 34 = -14

-10x = -40

x = 4

If 5x - 17 < 0, then |5x - 17| = -(5x - 17) = -5x + 17 and we have

-8 - 2 (-5x + 17) = -14

-8 + 10x - 34 = -14

10x = 28

x = 2.8
