9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (8, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of hats sold by each seller.

__

Kenny's cost: $3

Kenny's revenue: $0.50x

Kenny's profit = revenue - cost: y = 0.50x -3

__

Ben's cost: $1

Ben's revenue: $0.25x

Ben's profit = revenue - cost: y = 0.25x -1

__

The profit and sales will be the same when the same (x, y) values satisfy both profit equations.

  y = 0.50x -3

  y = 0.25x -1

  0.50x -3 = 0.25x -1 . . . . . substitute for y

  0.25x = 2 . . . . . . . . . . . add 3-0.25x

  x = 8 . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 4

  y = 0.25x -1 = 2 -1 = 1 . . . using Ben's profit equation

The profit and sales will be the same for ...

  (hats, profit) = (8, 1)

lilavasa [31]

i. Cube of any odd number is even. False

ii.  A perfect cube does not end with two zeros. True

iii.  If square of a number ends with 5, then its cube ends with 25. False

iv. There is no perfect cube which ends with 8. False

v. The cube of a two digit number may be a three digit number. False

vi.  The cube of a two digit number may have seven or more digits. False

vii. The cube of a single digit number may be a single digit number. True

<h3>Reasons </h3>

i.  Cube of any odd number is even. This statement is false because the cube of odd numbers are also odd

ii.  A perfect cube does not end with two zeros. This statement is True because the cube of a two digit number cannot be a 3 digit number and therefore cannot end with two zeros.

iii.  If square of a number ends with 5, then its cube ends with 25. This statement is False

Using the illustration

35^2 = 35 x 35= 1225 , its square ends with 5

35^3= 35 x 35 x 35= 42875 which ends with 75

iv.  There is no perfect cube which ends with 8. This statement is False.

Using the illustration, the cube of 2 is given thus

2 * 2 * 2 = 8

The cube of 2 ends with 8

v. The cube of a two digit number may be a three digit number. This statement is False.

Using the illustration, 10 is a two digit number

10 * 10 * 10 = 1000

The cube of 10 which is a two digit number is not a three digit number and same applies to all two digit numbers

vi  The cube of a two digit number may have seven or more digits. This statement is False because the cube of a two digit number can only be a four digit number.

vii. The cube of a single digit number may be a single digit number. This statement is True because the cube of a single digit number can be a single, two or three digit number.
