The vendor has to sell 88 gingerbread houses to earn a profit of $665.60 and there is no chance that the vendor will earn $1500.
Given an equation showing profits of A Christmas vendor as
P=-0.1
+30g-1200.
We have to find the number of gingerbread houses that the vendor needs to sell in order to earn profit of $665.60 and $1500.
To find the number of gingerbread houses we have to put P=665.60 in the equation given which shows the profit earned by vendor.
665.60=-0.1+30g-1200
0.1-30g+1200+665.60=0
0.1-30g+1865.60=0
Divide the above equation by 0.1.
-300g+18656=0
Solving for g we get,
g=[300±
]/2*1
g=[300±![\sqrt{90000-74624}]/2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%7B90000-74624%7D%5D%2F2)
g=[300±
]/2
g=(300±124)/2
g=(300+124)/2 , g=(300-124)/2
g=424/2, g=176/2
g=212,88
Because 212 is much greater than 88 so vendor prefers to choose selling of 88 gingerbread houses.
Put the value of P=1500 in equation P=-0.1+30g-1200.
-0.1+30g-1200=1500
0.1-30g+1500+1200=0
0.1-30g+2700=0
Dividing equation by 0.1.
-300g+27000=0
Solving the equation for finding value of g.
g=[300±
]/2*1
=[300±![\sqrt{90000-108000}] /2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%7B90000-108000%7D%5D%20%2F2)
=[300±
]/2
Because comes out with an imaginary number so it cannot be solved for the number of gingerbread houses.
Hence the vendor has to sell 88 gingerbread houses to earn a profit of $665.60 and there is no chance that the vendor will earn $1500.

Answer:
cos 42 = 10 / AB
Step-by-step explanation:
Since this is a right angle, we can use trig functions
cos theta = adjacent / hypotenuse
cos 42 = 10 / AB
Answer:
A. None of these
Step-by-step explanation:
The largest perfect square under 100 would actually be 81 (9 x 9)
90 and 99 are not perfect squares and 64 is smaller than 81.
Answer:
y - 2 = 1/2(x + 6)
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Algebra I</u>
Point-Slope Form: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
- x₁ - x coordinate
- y₁ - y coordinate
- m - slope<u>
</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
<em>Identify</em>
Point (-6, 2)
Slope <em>m</em> = 1/2
<u>Step 2: Find</u>
- Substitute in variables [Point-Slope Form]: y - 2 = 1/2(x - -6)
- Simplify: y - 2 = 1/2(x + 6)
9,2.5,-4,-10.5,-17
Let's find the difference between two consecutive terms
2.5 - 9 = -6.5
-4 - 2.5 = -6.5
-10.5 - (-4) = -6.5
-17 -(-10.5) = -6.5
We can see that the common difference is -6.5
-6.5 is the common difference between successive terms in the sequence 9,2.5,-4,-10.5,-17
the common difference is negative because we subtract 6.5 to get the next term.
