Answer:

No

Explanation:

Wages

£450

450 x 1.02 = 459

Rent

£200

200 x 1.05 = 210

wages increases by £9

rent increases by £10

No the increase in her wages will not fully pay for the increase in the rent

Noah manages a buffet at a local restaurant. He charges $10 for the buffet. On average, 16 customers choose the buffet as their
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

$3 max

Step-by-step explanation:

Charge= b, Customer= c, Revenue= r

r= bc, currently, r= 16*10= $160

We know that: b+1 ⇒ c-2  and the target is r ≥ 130

So, this will all be reflected as:

b=10+x ⇒ c= 16-2x

  • (10+x)(16-2x) ≥ 130
  • 160 -20x +16x - 2x² ≥ 130
  • -2x² - 4x + 30 ≥ 0
  • x² + 2x -15 ≤ 0
  • (x+1)² ≤ 4²
  • x+1 ≤ 4 (negative value not considered)
  • x ≤ 3

As we see the max increase amount is $3, when the revenue will be:

(10+3)*(16-3*2)= 13*10= $130

I'll start by expanding everything, and 10^(x) means we move the decimal x places to the right. If we move the decimal to the right but there's no number there, that number is 0.
The populations are as follows (in the order in the graph) -
127,180,000
200,000,000
80,619,000
63,708,000
173,615,000
152,510,000

The first difference is the number of digits. The more, the better. The two that stand out at the bottom are Germany and the UK. Next, we look at the leftmost number. Since 6<8, Germany's population > UK's population. All other countries are greater than Germany. Next, we look at the next smallest amount of digits, which is every other country. We look at the first number, which gives us Japan, Nigeria and Bangladesh. Next, we look at the second number, and since 2<5<7, Japan is smaller than Bangladesh and Nigeria is bigger than Bangladesh. Our current list is as follows:
United Kingdom (UK), Germany, Japan, Bangladesh, Nigeria. Since Brazil 
has been proven to be greater than the rest (as it has more digits and 2>1), our list is now 
United Kingdom (UK), Germany, Japan, Bangladesh, Nigeria, Brazil
