Answer:
22 boxes were lost. Look for the happy squirrels.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of lost boxes. David Express should expect to receive $25 for each of the 325 boxes of apples. That means:
($25)*(325) = $8125
The loss of a box means that the delivery fee would be forfeited, which would amount to: x*($25)
But a compensation fee of $75/box also applies, so the total loss to the income would be x*($25+$75) or x*($100). This would be subtracted from the total expected income of $8125:
Resulting Income: $8125 - ($100)x = $5925
$8125 - ($100)x = $5925
$8125 - ($100)x = $5925
-100x = -2200
x = 22 boxes were lost. Zounds! [A metric term for %$%^&]
===================
<u>Check:</u> Does the loss of 22 of the 325 boxes result in a total payment of $5925?
Delivered boxes: (325 - 22) = 303 boxes delivered. 303*$25 = $7575
Penalty of $75 per lost box: 22*($75) = $1650
Result: $7575 - $1650 = $5925 <u>YES</u>

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Daniel must tutor 160 hours
Explanation:
310+275+70= 655
655×6= 3930 (he needs this amount of $)
(Daniel gains $20 per hour)
20×160= 3200
3200+745= 3945
3945 > 3930
Daniel has enough for the trip.
Where did I get 160?
Well, I was just trying out numbers and multiplying it by 20
The numbers I tried: 100, 150, 156, 159 & 160 but only 160 fit with the answer.
If it was just one night road trip he would've just needed $655, but since it's a 6-night road trip I multiplied it by 6.
Hope this helped!
