Answer: 9 tilapia
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of 6:20 for tilapia to catfish means that for every six tilapia, there are 20 catfish in the pond.
If there are 30 catfish, use direct proportion to find out the number of tilapia:
6 : 20
x : 30
Cross multiply:
20x = 180
x = 180 / 20
x = 9 tilapia
Step-by-step answer:
The steps are much easier to follow when we know how many product it sells. The number does not really matter, because we need the profit per item.
Say, the company made and sold 100 items of the product.
The revenue = 100*5 = $500.
On the average, 2 out of 100 are defective and need to be replaced at a cost of $100 each, so
replacement cost = 2* 100 = 200
So net profit for 100 items = $500 -$200 = $300
Net profit for each item = $300/100 = $3.00
Remark: since the product is replaced, no refund is necessary, so revenue stays at $300.
Answer:
The second option annually
Step-by-step explanation:
(4,900×12)×10 the multiply by 2.9%. Take that number and add on every 10 years
Let's solve your equation step-by-step.
Step 1: Add 5 to both sides.


Step 2: Solve Exponent to get.
d = −4.054522 or -4.05 hope this helps
