Answer:

The number of flower pots that were sold is 50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of flower pots that the store owner bought and sold.

A store owner bought some flower pots for $1,200. Therefore, the cost price for each flower pot would be

1200/x

The flower pots were sold for $2,700, with a profit of $30 per pot. The means that the selling price of each flower pot would be

2700/x

Profit = selling price - cost price

Therefore

2700/x - 1200/x = 30

Multiplying both sides of the equation by x, it becomes

2700 - 1200 = 30x

30x = 1500

x = 1500/30 = 50

PLEASE HELP ME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!<br>LET ME KNOW IF ITS RIGHT

Okay. So the song lasts 221 seconds. 45 seconds have already beem done and 22 seconds is done in an hour. The equation would be set up like this:

45 + 22h = 221

Just by looking at the answer choices, A is already eliminated because it doesn't incorportate the 45 seconds. B does include the 45 seconds, but it subtracts, and in this case, we add time, not subtract. D is eliminated, because the h variable does not go with 45. The only equation that works is C and when you solve it, you get 8 hours. The answer is C.

Note: you solve the equation above by subtract 45 from both sides to get 176 = 22x, and dividing both sides by 22 to get x = 8.
