Answer:

Kelly owes $16.5

Greg owes $33

Joe owes $64.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Kelly's portion = x

Greg's portion = 2x

Joe's portion = 4x - 1.50

Total bill = $114.00

Total bill = Kelly's portion + Greg's portion + Joe's portion

114 = x + 2x + (4x - 1.50)

114 = 3x + 4x - 1.50

114 = 7x - 1.50

Add 1.50 to both sides

114 + 1.50 = 7x - 1.50 + 1.50

115.5 = 7x

Divide both sides by 7

x = 115.5 / 7

= 16.5

x = $16.5

Kelly's portion = x

x = $16.5

Greg's portion = 2x

= 2 × 16.5

= $33

Joe's portion = 4x - 1.50

= 4(16.5) - 1.50

= 66 - 1.50

= $64.5

Therefore,

Kelly owes $16.5

Greg owes $33

Joe owes $64.5

Alja [10]

Answer:

Option (1)

Step-by-step explanation:

By the inscribed angle theorem inside a circle,

"Measure of an inscribed angle is half the measure of the intercepted arc"

\frac{1}{2}[m(arc AB)] = m(∠ABC)

m(arc AB) = 2[m(∠ABC)]

x = 2(41°)

x = 82°

Option (1) is the correct option.

Answer:

Nina would have total expenses and sales $156 after selling 4 necklaces.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let <em>x</em> represent the amount of necklaces made and sold.

The initial cost was $140 and it costs $4 to produce one necklace. Hence, the total cost after producing <em>x</em> necklaces can be represented as:

\displaystyle 140 + 4x

Each necklace sells for $39. Hence, the total profit after selling <em>x</em> necklaces can be represented as:

\displaystyle 39x

To break even, the total cost and profit must be equivalent. Hence:

\displaystyle 140 + 4x = 39x

Solve for <em>x: </em>

<em />\displaystyle \begin{aligned} 140 + 4x & = 39x \\ \\ 140 & = 35x \\ \\ x & = 4 \end{aligned}<em />

<em />

Hence, the break even, Nina would need to sell four necklaces.

And the total expenses/profit would be:

\displaystyle \$39(4) = \$156

In conclusion, Nina would have total expenses and sales $156 after selling 4 necklaces.
