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.

So the fee would be $45.60
