250 lunches are produced by the small business in last week.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
It is given that,
- y ⇒ the average cost per week.
- x ⇒ the number of lunches produced per week.
The function relating these two factors x and y is given as y = 2.1x + 75
- The cost of the last week is y = $600.
- The lunches made last week is x = unknown.
<u>To find the value of x :</u>
Substitute y= 600 in the given function,
⇒ 600 = 2.1x + 75
⇒ 2.1x = 600 - 75
⇒ x = 525 / 2.1
⇒ x = 250
Therefore, the lunches prepared last week is 250.
I think this problem gave the data for the radius of earth so that we will know the conversion ratio between statute miles and nautical miles. However, you can simply search that. There are 1.15 statute miles in 1 nautical mile. Hence,
Distance in nautical miles = <span>884884 statute miles * 1 nautical mile/1.15 statute miles
<em>Distance =769,464.35 nautical miles</em></span>
width = x
length = 3 + x
perimeter = x + x + ( 3 + x ) + (3+x)
18 = x + x + ( 3 + x ) + (3+x)
x + x + ( 3 + x ) + (3+x) = 18
6 + 4x = 18
4x = 12
x = 3
