At 10 am, Car A is at 30 miles.
Then at 11 am, Car A is at 60 miles and Car B is at 40 miles
At 12 am, Car A is at 90 miles and Car B is at 80 miles
At 1 pm, Car A and B are tied for 120 miles
The very second after Car B passes Car A
Answer: 1:01 pm Car B Passes Car A
The way you find profit is to subtract the revenue and the cost
Profit = Revenue - Cost
The revenue is the amount of money coming in, the cost is the amount of money going out. The goal of course is to have the revenue larger than the cost so that the profit is positive.
So the equation given is
P = 7.5n - (2.25n+15)
and its in the form
P = R - C
where...
R = 7.5n is the revenue equation
C = 2.25n+15 is the cost equation
Focus on the revenue equation
R = 7.5n
which is the same as
R = 7.50*n
This tells us that Sandra pulls in a total of 7.50*n dollars where n is some positive whole number. It represents the number of necklaces sold. For example, if she sold n = 10 necklaces, then
R = 7.50*n
R = 7.50*10
R = 750
meaning that Sandra has made $750 in revenue
As you can see above, the revenue is computed by multiplying the price per necklace ($7.50) by the number of necklaces sold (n) to get R = 7.50*n
So that's why the answer is $7.50
Note: The 2.25 is part of the cost equation. This is known as the variable cost. It is the cost to make one necklace ignoring the fixed cost (eg: rent). The variable cost often doesn't stay the same, but algebra textbooks often simplify this aspect.
Answer:
11%
Step-by-step explanation:
A sales tax is placed on goods and services once the buyer and seller agree on what the exchange of currency is.
In this case you take the tax on the 1625 and not the 1803.75.
The buyer agreed to buy the item for 1625 and the seller agreed to sell it for that amount. So the tax goes on 1625.
Tax amount = total price - selling price
Tax amount = 1803.75 - 1625
Tax amount = 178.75
That's not what you want. You want the % of the tax.
% Tax = (Tax Amount / Selling Price) * 100
% Tax = (178.75 / 1625) * 100
% Tax = 0.11 * 100
% Tax = 11% Answer
