Answer:
Natalie bought 500 apples at $0.40 each, then she pays $0.40 500 times, this means that the total cost of the 500 apples is:
Cost = 500*$0.40 = $200
Now she threw away n apples from the 500 apples, then the number of apples that she has now is:
apples = 500 - n
And she sells the remaining apples for $0.70 each.
a) The amount that she gets by selling the apples is:
Revenue = (500 - n)*$0.70
b) We know that she did not make a loss, then the revenue must be larger than the cost, this means that:
cost ≤ revenue
$200 ≤ (500 - n)*$0.70
c) We need to solve the inequality for n.
$200 ≤ (500 - n)*$0.70
$200/$0.70 ≤ (500 - n)
285.7 ≤ 500 - n
n + 285.7 ≤ 500
n ≤ 500 - 285.7
n ≤ 214.3
Then the maximum value of n must be equal or smaller than 214.3
And n is a whole number, then we can conclude that the maximum number of rotten apples can be 214.
Ratios don't have to be "per" something, while rates are "per" something.
Ratios compare 2 or more values, as well as rates.
The fraction would be the portion over the total:
240 / 5280
Divide both top and bottom by 240 and the fraction simplifies to 1/22
The answer is 1/22
In order to find the answer, you can use-
1/4x=6
In order to get the answer, you multiply 6 by the denominator.
6x4=24
Then, you'd divide the solution of that part by the numerator.
24 divided by 1 equals 24.
Therefore, the final answer would be 24.
Answer:
y = 8x + 50
Step-by-step explanation:
Use (0,50) and (10,130)
Slope: m = (130-50)/(10-0) = 8
Y-intercept is 50
y = 8x + 50
