Step-by-step explanation:
what is... a LIKE TERM????
a like term is a term that you can easily combine in an algebra equation. you can combine them because they share the same terms. FOR EXAMPLE.... YOU CAN COMBINE THESE ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE EQUAL SIGN:
to
so for a, b, and c... its basically any number that doesnt have a variable attached to it. THEY COULD BE ANYTHING. like 1, -2, and 3. but for d... its a different story.... because there is so a like term could be 2
notice that i wrote -2 for b... well theoretically it doesnt even have to be negative because you can combine a negative integer with a positive integer! i just made it negative for convenience....
We know that:
Profit = Revenue - Cost
Let us say x number of candies are made per week.
Finding Cost per week:
Cost of making 1 bar = 0.15
Cost of making x bars = 0.15x
Fixed rate of making candies per week = 600
Total cost of making x candies per week = 600 + 0.15x
Now let us find Revenue:
Selling price of each bar = 1.50
Selling price of x bars = 1.50x
Now we have to find profit,
Profit = Revenue - Cost
In order to have profit Revenue - Cost >0
So plugging values of revenue and cost to get number of candies,
x>444.44
Rounding off
x>444
Answer: The company must sell greater than 444 candies in order to make profit.
