Given:
18 points on her quiz
24 points is equivalent to 100%

18 is to 24 or 18/24
x is to 100% or x/100%

18/24 = x/100%

18 * 100% = 24x
1800% = 24x
1800%/24 = x
75% = x

18/24 = 75%/100%
18 * 100% = 24 * 75%
1800% = 1800%

prisoha [69]

Answer:

Part A: x0.50 + 3 = 18.50

Part B: x0.75 + 3 - x0.10 = 21

Part C: The equations from Part A and Part B differ because of the cost of plastic cup.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of cup of lemonade sold. Therefore, we have:

Part A:

This situation can be represented by the following equation:

x0.50 + 3 = 18.50

Part B:

This situation can be represented by the following equation:

x0.75 + 3 - x0.10 = 21

Part C:

The equations from Part A and Part B differ because of the cost of plastic cup.

For equation from Part A, revenue is the same as profit as Sydney does incur any cost to buy plastic cup before selling her lemonade.

For equation from Part B, revenue is different from profit because Daria has to incur the cost of plastic cup which $0.10 per cup of lemonade before selling her lemonade.

If p represents the original price, which of the following expressions could be used to calculate the sale price of a shirt that

dezoksy [38]

Answer:

C & D

Step-by-step explanation:

You can do these two ways. You can multiply the cost of the the shirt by 15% (.15 as a decimal.) and then subtract that answer from the original price of the shirt to get the sales price of the shirt.

You can also multiply the price of the shirt by 85% (.85 as a decimal) and that will give you the sales price without having to subtract. 15% + 85% = 100%, so 85% represents the sales price of the shirt.

Anyway, since you multiply, you can eliminate choice A & B.

Since the direction in the question says to select all that apply, I would check both C & D.

C is the equation of the first way I talked about- Price - 15% * price

C p - 0.15p

D is the equation of the second way I talked about. Price times 85%

D 0.85p
