may be I'm ryt confirm wih some others
The food service gave out 80 samples, which is 4 fewer than 70% of the total number of samples they prepared. Lets make x the total number of samples they prepared.
So lets write it as an equation
80 = (70% of x) -4
70% converts to a decimal by moving the decimal point 2 spaces up, so it is 0.7
80 = 0.7x-4
Add 4 to both sides of the equation
84 = 0.7x
Divide both sides by 0.7 to isolate the x
x = 120
The food service prepared 120 samples.
96 and 2 cause they are WAY off.
Answer:
≥ 420 boards
Step-by-step explanation:
Write the required relation between cost per board and "x" (the number of boards that must be sold).
143 + 30240/x ≤ 215 . . . . . . . note that the first term is <em>not</em> 143x
Subtract 143
30240/x ≤ 72
Multiply by x/72. This is a positive number because x is a positive number.
30240/72 ≤ x
420 ≤ x
At least 420 surfboards must be sold to limit the final cost per board to $215.
