Assume Jerry sells x bags of dried turkey, and 2x bags of dried beef. He profits ($2)x on dried turkey, and ($1.5)(2x) on the dried beef. Therefore, his total profit is 2x + 3x = 5x. Since this is equivalent to $500, we can solve
5x = 500
x = 100
Therefore, Jerry must sell 100 bags of dried turkey and 200 bags of dried beef.
Answer:
28.57
Step-by-step explanation:
3.14×0.5=1.750
50÷1.75=5000÷175 to eliminate the decimal points
5000÷175=28.571
then we round the answer to the nearest tenths
=28.57
Answer:
$693
Step-by-step explanation:
Catherine invested a principal of $1,650 in her bank account with;
interest rate of 3.1%
How much interest did she earn in 14 years?
To find the amount accumulated in the 14 years, we use the formula:
A = P(1 + rt)
Where A is the amount accumulated, P is the principal, r is the interest rate and t is the time.
A = $1650(1 + 
(14))
A = $1650 + $693 = $2343
Interest = Amount (A) - Principal (P) = $2343 - $1650 = $693
Answer:
7/9
Step-by-step explanation:
P(blue) = 2:7
This means there are 2 blue parts for every 7 nonblue parts. So 9 parts total! 2:7, then, should be thought of as 2/9.
P(not blue) = 1 - 2/9
= 7/9
Think about it: there must be a total probability of 1, so the probability of <em>not</em> getting blue must be 7/9.
