Answers:

  • 300 = 12i+36s
  • i = 10
  • Yes it's reasonable
  • i = -11

Refer to the diagram below.

The explanation for each part is below as well.

========================================================

Part 1

i = number of individual nail polish bottles

s = number of sets of 4

12i = money earned from just selling the individual bottles only

36s = money earned from just selling the sets of 4 only

12i+36s = total money earned = 300

12i+36s = 300 is the equation to set up

This is the same as 300 = 12i+36s  because A = B is the same as B = A.

========================================================

Part 2

Plug in s = 5 to represent she sold 5 sets. Let's solve for i

12i+36s = 300

12i+36(5) = 300

12i+180 = 300

12i = 300-180

12i = 120

i = 120/12

i = 10

If she wants to sell $300 worth of product overall, and she already sold 5 sets so far, then she needs to sell 10 individual bottles to reach this monthly goal.

========================================================

Part 3

Yes it's reasonable to reach this goal. This is because the value of i (from part 2) was some positive whole number.

========================================================

Part 4

We'll repeat part 2 but with s = 12

12i+36s = 300

12i+36(12) = 300

12i+432 = 300

12i = 300-432

12i = -132

i = -132/12

i = -11

As the instructions state, we get a negative value. This is not reasonable because we can't sell a negative number of items. A negative number of items in general doesn't make sense.

The instructions further state that $432 was already made and that she exceeded her goal. Meaning that she doesn't have to worry about selling the individual bottles if selling the sets has her reach something over $300.

Verdich [7]

Answer:

I assume Josh and Peyton are his friends and both gave him advice on what to do with half of the money from the big lottery win.

Let's say Josh said "save it or invest it for your retirement" and Peyton said "use it to keep playing the lottery.

We will now look at the sense in each piece of advice!

Step-by-step explanation:

JOSH

By investing the $250,000 (half of the money won), Patrick will be sure that the money is available for him anytime and would even have gotten interest, by the time he's ready to use it.

PEYTON

By playing the lottery continuously, Patrick could get lucky once in a while and win big again. How big though?

Analyzing with the figures given,

$20 gets Patrick a lottery ticket.

$250,000 will get him 12,500 lottery tickets!

Whether he's buying the tickets at once or he'll play the lottery once in a while, I'll say he has good chances of winning big again.

So if the probability of winning big after purchasing up to 12,500 tickets is close to 1, Patrick should play the lottery with the $250,000

If the probability of winning big after purchasing 12,500 lottery tickets is close to 0 (closer to 0 than it is to 1) then Patrick should invest the $250,000 in retirement.
