Answer:
6 purses
Step-by-step explanation
1. Subtract 71 from 161 as that's how much Daniela needs to make to have 161, which is 90
2. Divide 15 by 90 as 15 is the profit, so the answer would be the amount of purses she needs to sell, then you get 6
Check
6 times 15, 90
71 + 90 = 161
Answer:
12+# OR 12+x
Step-by-step explanation:
Increased by 12 means plus 12. The word "is" in equations is an equal sign. So far, you have 2n+12. On the other side of the equal sign, you have 31 less than 3 times a number.
If you assume doubling the workers will halve the time taken to finish then 12 analysts will take 21 days
To finish in 7 days (1/6 of 42 days) you would need 6 x the original number = 36 analysts.
Brook’s Law (see Wikipedia) suggests than adding extra analysts will actually slow the project down!
One reason is the extra people tend to get in each others way.
