Answer:

938

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Amount spent by fair on thrill. Ride = $3000

Cost per token of thrill ride = $4

For the fair to make a profit of atleast $750

Then it must realize : (cost of thrill ride + $750) = ($3000 + $750) = $3750

Therefore ;

Cost per token * number of rise tokens ≥ $3750

Let number of ride tokens = x

4x ≥ 3750

4x/4 ≥ 3750/4

x ≥ 937.5

Hence, number of tokens that must be sold = 938

Two miners are trying to push a stationary mine cart filled with gold. Miner A is exerting 25 N while miner B is exerting 20 N.
Oliga [24]

Answer:

b. 45 N

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the forces exerted by the two miners = 25 + 20

                                           = 45 N

Since after applying a force of 45 N by the two miners the cart remained stationary, it implies that a resistance force of at least 45 N acts against their push. Thus, the force exerted by the road could be equal to 45 N or greater than 45 N.

Probably, if the sum of the forces applied is 46 N, the cart would move. Which depends on the value of resistance force applied by the road. Thus, the appropriate answer from the given option is B.

Since the force applied on the cart equals the resistance force exerted by the road, the cart would not move.

Translate the sentence into an inequality.
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

9(n + 22) ≤ -15

Step-by-step explanation:

9 times the sum of a number and 22 is at most −15

Let n = number

Times = multiplication

Sum = Addition

9 * n + 22

We must add parenthesis on the end on 22 and before n

We must do this because it says 9 times the sum of a number and 22 which means that 9 is being multiplied by both n and 22

We would have 9(n + 22)

9(n + 22) is at most -15

At most meaning that -15 is the highest number that 9(n + 22) can equal

Because it says at most 9(n + 22) can equal -15 or anything less than -15

So at most can be replaced with ≤

9(n + 22) ≤ -15

Rectangular windows are being made into a wall of windows for an office building. Each wall is 14 feet tall and 12 feet wide. Th
Artemon [7]

Answer:

  168/(x² +7x)

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of each window is 14/(x+7), and the width of each window is 12/x. The area of each window is the product of its height ans width:

  area = (14/(x+7))(12/x) = 168/(x(x +7))

  area = 168/(x² +7x)

_____

<em>Comment on the problem</em>

There is not enough information given to determine suitable values for x. If x is 42, each window is a square 3 3/7 inches on a side.
