Answer:
22 people
Step-by-step explanation:
Sean has 2 3/4 candy bars. That is 11/4 candy bars.
He wants to give out 1/8 candy bars.
The number of people that will get candy is:
22 people can get candy.
I'll do the first one to get you started
So we have g(f(x)) which means that we start with g(x) and replace the 'x' with 'f(x)' to get g(f(x))
g(x) = ( x - 4 )/2
g(f(x)) = ( f(x) - 4)/2 .... replace every x with f(x)
g(f(x)) = (2x+4-4)/2 .... replace f(x) on the right side with 2x+4
g(f(x)) = (2x+0)/2
g(f(x)) = (2x)/2
g(f(x)) = 1x/1
g(f(x)) = 1x
g(f(x)) = x
Let me know if you need help with the other one.
12/16,
6/8,
3/4, and
45/60
are all equivalent to 24/32.
Now that I've listed those four, there are
only an infinite number of others remaining.
Alright, so the money you make is automatically -1500 for the tools, so it's -1500. Next, the materials cost 200 dollars for each scooter, s, so we have -1500-200s. After that, we have 300 dollars for the sale of each scooter, so we have -1500-200s+300s. Adding -200 and 300 together, we have -1500+100s. To make a profit, that means 100s -1500 > 0. Dividing by 100, we have
s -15 >0 and s>15, so if you sold 16 scooters you'd make a profit. That profit would be 100*16-1500=1600-1500=100 dollars
