Answer:
Natalie bought 500 apples at $0.40 each, then she pays $0.40 500 times, this means that the total cost of the 500 apples is:
Cost = 500*$0.40 = $200
Now she threw away n apples from the 500 apples, then the number of apples that she has now is:
apples = 500 - n
And she sells the remaining apples for $0.70 each.
a) The amount that she gets by selling the apples is:
Revenue = (500 - n)*$0.70
b) We know that she did not make a loss, then the revenue must be larger than the cost, this means that:
cost ≤ revenue
$200 ≤ (500 - n)*$0.70
c) We need to solve the inequality for n.
$200 ≤ (500 - n)*$0.70
$200/$0.70 ≤ (500 - n)
285.7 ≤ 500 - n
n + 285.7 ≤ 500
n ≤ 500 - 285.7
n ≤ 214.3
Then the maximum value of n must be equal or smaller than 214.3
And n is a whole number, then we can conclude that the maximum number of rotten apples can be 214.
A number that is not a whole number.
Answer:
w > -14
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide both sides by -6.
-6w/-6 = w
84/-6 = 14
Since it's an equality, if the coefficient of the variable is negative, when you divide the sign flips to the opposite.
Answer:
$4,309.12
Step-by-step explanation:
The computation of the interest earned is given below:
But before that the amount would be
Amount = Principal × (1 + rate of interest)^number of years
= $6,000 × (1 + 0.07)^8
= $6,000 × 1.07^8
= $10,309.12
Now the interest earned is
= Amount - principal
= $10,309.12 - $6,000
= $4,309.12
