Step-by-step answer:
The steps are much easier to follow when we know how many product it sells. The number does not really matter, because we need the profit per item.
Say, the company made and sold 100 items of the product.
The revenue = 100*5 = $500.
On the average, 2 out of 100 are defective and need to be replaced at a cost of $100 each, so
replacement cost = 2* 100 = 200
So net profit for 100 items = $500 -$200 = $300
Net profit for each item = $300/100 = $3.00
Remark: since the product is replaced, no refund is necessary, so revenue stays at $300.

Answer: You can multiply the top equation by -1 to eliminate the x variable.
And the solution is (2,4/3) in case you need it.
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 3y = 8
2x + 6y = 12
If you multiply the upper equation or down equation by one, you will be able to eliminate the x variable.
-1( 2x + 3y) = -1(8) New equation: -2x -3y = -8.
Add the new equation you got by multiplying the top equation by -1 to the bottom equation.
Add them: -2x -3y = -8
2x + 6y = 12
3y = 4
y = 4/3
You can now input the value for y into the one of the equations and solve for x.
-2x - 3(4/3) = -8
-2x -4 = -8
+4 +4
-2x = -4
x = 2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
- Let the value of a number 'a' be = 8/15
- Let the value of a number 'b' be = 2/3
The difference between the two numbers can be calculated by subtracting the numbers












Thus,
Question 1 demonstrates the Commutative Property.
