Which shows a correct order to solve this story problem? Kent and Curtis went to the state fair. They had to pay a total of $7.1
KiRa [710]
The problem is asking how much each person will need to pay. Simplifying the problem into an equation with variables (an algorithm) will greatly help you solve it:

S = Sales Tax = $ 7.18 per any purchase
A = Admission Ticket = $ 22.50 entry price for one person (no tax applied)
F = Food = $ 35.50 purchases for two people

We know the cost for one person was: (22.50) + [(35.50/2) + 7.18] =
$ 47.43 per person. Now we can check each method and see which one is the correct algorithm:

Method A)
[2A + (F + 2S)] / 2 = [ (2)(22.50) + [35.50 + (2)(7.18)] ]/ 2 = $47.43
Method A is the correct answer

Method B)
[(2A + (1/2)F + 2S) /2 = [(2)(22.50) + 35.50(1/2) + (2)7.18] / 2 = $38.55
Wrong answer. This method is incorrect because the tax for both tickets bought are not being used in the equation.

Method C)
[(A + F) / 2 ]+ S = [(22.50 + 35.50) / 2 ] + 7.18 = $35.93
Wrong answer. Incorrect Method. The food cost is being reduced to the cost of one person but admission price is set for two people.

Consider the exponential function f ( x ) = 13 , 500 ⋅ 0.89^x, which models the value of Mikayla's scooter, where x represents t
Elden [556K]

Answer: $8470

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, you can substitute 4 for x:

f(x) = 13500*.89^4\\f(x) = 13500*0.6274\\f(x) = 8470

Mikayla's scooter is worth around $8470 after 4 years.

It was originally worth 13,500 dollars and depreciated by 11% every year.

A commuter airline makes lattes in the galley and sells them to passengers. A regular latte contains a shot of espresso, 1 cup o
Alik [6]

Answer:

To maximize profit, the amount of each type of coffees made are;

The number of regular latte made = 52 cups

The number of low-fat latte made = 48 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The number of espresso in a regular latte = 1 shot

The number of cups of 2% milk in regular latte = 1 cup

The amount of whipped cream in a regular latte = 0.5 cup

The number of cups of skim milk in the low-fat latte = 1.25 cup

The number of espresso in a low-fat latte = 1 shot

The amount of whipped cream in a low-fat latte = 0 cup

The number of cups of espresso in the journey = 100 shots

The number of cups of skim milk in the journey = 60 cups

The number of cups of 2% milk in the journey = 60 cups

The amount of profit the airline makes on each regular latte = $1.58

The amount of profit the airline makes on each low-fat latte = $1.65

Let 'x' represent the number regular lattes made and let 'y' represent the number low-fat lattes made, we have;

x ≤ 30/0.5 = 60

x ≤ 60

y ≤ 60

y ≤ 60/1.25 = 48

∴ y ≤ 48

x + y ≤ 100

Therefore, the given that more profit is made from the sale of low-fat latte than for regular latte, the maximum number of low-fat latte should be made

Therefore, the number of low-fat latte made, y = 48

Therefore, the number of regular latte made, x ≤ 100 - 48 = 52

For maximum profit, the maximum number of low-fat latte, 'x', should be made

Therefore, x = 52

The ideal mix of regular and low-fat lattes to maximize profit is 52 cups of regular latte and 48 cups of low-fat latte
