Answer:

<h3>C. 800</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation used to calculate the amount of profit, p, made from selling n candy bars expressed as  p = 1.50n – 500

To find the number of candies sold for $700, we are going to substitute p = $700 into the given expression and find n as shown;

700 =  1.50n - 500

Add 500 to both sides

700+500 = 1.50n-500+500

1200 = 1.50n

Divide both sides by 1.50

1200/1.50 = 1.50n/1.50

800 = n

Rearrange

n = 800

Hence 800 candy bars must be sold to make $700 profit

Express the following in standard form 178000000km
evablogger [386]

Answer:

1.78 x 10^8

Step-by-step explanation:

178000000

I usually count the number of zeros first so in this case, it would be 6

178 x 10^6

This wouldn't be standard form because the number should be between 1 and 9

178 ÷ 100 = 1.78

I divided this number by 100 so I would times 10^6 by a 100

10^6 x 100 = 10^8

the answer would be 1.78 x 10^8

i hope this helps!

if it is confusing then i am sorry

Scrat [10]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

Michael must find the smallest number possible that can divide 60 and 45 then take the two quotients after dividing the 2 types of cookies by the smallest number possible.

2 is not possible as 45 is an odd number

3 can divide both 60 and 45

60/3 = 20 oatmeal cookies in each container.

45/3 = 15 chocolate chip cookies in each container.
