<u>Answer:</u>

106 items

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We know that:

revenues > costs

7.5x – 100 > 79.86 + 5.8x

7.5x - 5.8x > 79.86 + 100  

1.7x > 179.86  

x > 179.86 / 1.7  

x > 105.8

This means that the company will need to sell at least 106 items (the smallest integer greater than 105.8) to make a profit.

The inequality which will determine the number of least items that need to be sold to make a profit is x ≥ 106

s2008m [1.1K]

You have to find the unit rate

SO..

7.70 / 154 = 0.05

So it cost her 0.05 cents for each text.

So then you divide $ 5.25 by the unit rate to get the number of text

5.25 /0.05 = 105

so she sent 105 text

To check it you just multiply the unit rate by the number of text you got and you show come up with $ 5.25

0.05 x 105 = 5.25

AnnZ [28]

All you have to do for this is count every week the amount of money Duane and Mick earn.  We'll start with $5 from Duane and $2 from Mick on the first week. The second week, only Mick gives $2, and so on. To earn $45, the two boys will have worked 10 weeks. I hope this helped! :)
