Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Well, I mean, if you read a decimal incorrectly, what's the point of the fraction if the fraction will end up being incorrect?
Reading 0.5 as 5 will have you write 5/1 instead of 1/2.
So yeah, kinda detrimental.
For No. 13 you need to calculate the distance each girl travels and compare to see whose distance is greater. The formula for distance is rate x time or d=rt. The rate is just how fast they consistently go.
Mia
d = r x t
d = 14 x 3/2
d = 21 miles
Chloe
d = r x t
d = 35 x 3/4 (btw 3/4 is just 45/60 simplified)
d = 105/4 = 26 1/4 miles
Final Answer: Chloe traveled further
For No. 14 we will recalculate Mia's distance but replace 1/5 hours with 2 hours because it says she will bike 30 minutes after Chloe had stopped. Afterwards we will compare Mia's new distance with Chloe's old distance.
Mia
d = r x t
d = 14 x 2
d = 28 miles
Final Answer: Yes Mia would be able to catch up to Chloe, and even surpass her in 30 minutes if Chloe stopped.
Answer:
30 toys to break-even in one day
Step-by-step explanation:
Let "x" be the number of toys the company makes in a day. The cost of the company is $ 300 per day + $ 25 per toy
Since, the cost is $25 for one toy, the cost for x toys would be $ 25x.
The cost $300 is the fixed cost and does not depend on how many toys are made in a day. Therefore, the total cost the company pays to make x toys in a day would be:
Total Cost = 300 + 25x
The company sells toy for $ 35 each. So x toys would be sold in $ 35x. Hence, total revenue/sales would be:
Total Sales = $ 35x
In order to break-even, the total cost in one day must be equal to total sales of the day i.e.
Total Cost = Total Sales
300 + 25x = 35x
300 = 10x
x = 30
This means, if the company makes and sells 30 toys it would break-even i.e. no loss no profit. For getting profit, the company had to sale more than 30 toys in a day.
