Question

a country will produce 3000 missels this year. each of the short range missles costs $200,000 to produce. Each of the medium range missles cost $300,000 to produce. the ratio of the number of short range to medium range missles to long range missles the country plans to produce this year is 3:3:4. the country plans to use $870,000,000 to produce these missles. how much does it cost to produce longe range missles?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3000/10=300   300=10% of total missiles

300*3=900(30%)   That country (assuming it is Iran) would produce 900 short missiles and 900 medium missiles. 3000-900(2)=3000-1800=1200.

Iran will produce 1200 long range missiles.

For the cost of the missiles,

200,000*900=180,000,000. 300,000*900=270,000,000.

870M-(180M+270M)=870M-450M=420M

420,000,000/1200=350,000.

Long Range Missiles are $350,000 each... got me thinkin bout buying some...
