Answer:
she makes $22.80 a day
Step-by-step explanation:
since she makes $0.57 per box and averages at 40 boxes a day, we multiply 40 and 0.57. 40 x 0.57 = 22.8, or $22.80.
hope this helped!
Answer:
1875 arrangements
Step-by-step explanation:
Break-Even is the point when costs are equal to profit.
The cost is 15,000
We need to cover this up with the profit we get from sales.
Each arrangement is 17 (cost) and is sold for 25, so the profit from each arrangement is:
25 - 17 = 8
So, with each arrangement sale, we make profit of $8. How many of these we need to sell in order to break even (in order to make 15,000)??
We simply divide this amount (15,000) by the profit we make from each arrangement ($8), so that would be:
Number of Arrangements Needed to Break-Even = 15,000/8 = 1875
After 1875 arrangements, the boutique breaks even.
Area of a rectangle is length x width.
Let the width = x
The length would be x +7. ( 7 inches longer than the width)
Area = 20
Set up the formula:
20 = x * x+7
Simplify the right side:
20 = x^2 + 7x
Subtract 29 from both sides:
X^2 + 7x -20 = 0
Solve using the quadratic equation
X = -b + sqrt(b^2 -4ac) / 2a
X = -7 + sqrt(7^2-4(1)(-20) / 2(1) (exact answer)
X = 2.178908 ( as a decimal)
The width is 2.178907 inches (round as needed)
The length would be 9.178907 inches ( round as needed.)
Depending on how you round, when you multiply them together you get approximately 20 square inches.
The answer to your question is 8, because you replace z with 2
