Question

Designer Dolls found that its number of Dress-Up Dolls sold, N, varies directly with their advertising budget, A, and inversely proportional with the price of each doll, P. When $54,000 was spent on advertising and the price of the doll is $90, then 9,600 units are sold. Determine the number of dolls sold if the amount of advertising budget is increased to $144,000.

Answer 1

Answer:

25,600

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the rule of three considering that the number of dolls sold varies directly with the advertising budget:

$54,000    →   9,600

$144,000   →       x

$x=\frac{144,000*9,600}{54,000}$

x=25,600

According to this, the number of dolls sold if the amount of advertising budget is increased to $144,000 is 25,600.
