Answer:

$8.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert 45 yards of ribbon to feet through proper conversion factor.  

  (45 yards)(3 ft / 1 yard) = 135 feet

Divide this number by 5 to determine the number of 5-ft ribbon that customers can purchased.

    n = 135 ft / 5 ft = 27

Then, multiply by $0.80.

   R = (27)($0.80) = $21.6

The profit is equal to $21.6 and $13.50,

    P = $21.6 - $13.50 = $8.1

Answer: $8.1

How can these models be used to find the sum 1.8 + 1.56?
enyata [817]

Answer:

The sum of  1.8 and 1.56 is 3.36 according to the model

Sum of decimals

Given the expression  1.8 + 1.56

Using the partial sum method

1.8 + 1.56 = (1.0 + 0.8) + (1.0+0.56)

Regroup as whole and decimal number

1.8 + 1.56 = (1.0 + 1.0) + (0.8 +0.56)

1.8 + 1.56 = 2.0 + 1.36

1.8 + 1.56 = 3.36

Hence the sum of  1.8 and 1.56 is 3.36 according to the model

The demand for coffee is given by the following equation, where QD stands for the quantity demanded and P stands for price.
mart [117]

Using linear function concepts, it is found that the slopes and intercepts of the functions are given as follows:

a) -4.

b) P = 25.

c) 2.

d) P = 5.

<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

  • m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
  • b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.

The demand is given by:

D = 100 - 4P.

Hence the slope is of -4. The demand is equals to zero when:

100 - 4P = 0 -> P = 25.

The supply is given by:

QS = -10 + 2P.

Hence the slope is of 2. The supply is equals to zero when:

-10 + 2P = 0 -> P = 5.
