7. John's seafood restaurant is trying to estimate its profits. John has found that on average, each meal served costs the resta

urant $14.56 and takes in $17.12. John has also found that on average, each beverage served costs the restaurant $1.20 and takes in $5.40. If c customers order a meal, and half of those customers order a beverage, which of the following functions models the restaurant's total profit?
f(c) =17.12c -14.56c + 5.40(.5c) - 1.20(.5c)
f(c) = 17.12c - 14.56c + 5.4c - 1.20c
f(c)=14.56c - 17.12c + 1.20c - 5.40c14.56c - 17.12c + 12(.5c) - 5.40(.5c)

Answer:

f(c) =17.12c -14.56c + 5.40(.5c) - 1.20(.5c)

Step-by-step explanation:

Profit is the difference between revenue (17.12c +5.40(.5c)) and cost(14.56c+1.20(0.5c)). That difference is expressed by the function shown above.

Answer:

f(c) =17.12c -14.56c + 5.40(.5c) - 1.20(.5c)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's build the f(c) function by steps.

There are c customers.

John has found that on average, each meal served costs the restaurant $14.56 and takes in $17.12.

So, the costs for the restaurant are negative, and what takes positive.

f(c) =17.12c -14.56c

Now the final part

John has also found that on average, each beverage served costs the restaurant $1.20 and takes in $5.40.

Half of these customers order a beverage, and this is why we multiply by 0.5.

So

f(c) =17.12c -14.56c + 5.40(.5c) - 1.20(.5c)

Ok. You can use equations to find out what number of each meal was eaten. 

x*14+y*17=99

If you solve for x and y (I used guess and check- there's only a few possible combinations) and got one chicken dinner and five steak dinners.

Determine the equation of the inverse of y = 7x + 2
Eddi Din [679]
Since we are finding the inverse you switch the variable. So it is now x=7y+2 and now you solve for y. You would get x-2/7 = y for the inverse

1/5( 5/2 x 4/7 -11/7) + 3/28

Multiply the terms (5/2 x 4/7) in bracket then subtract it from 11/14. Result will be 10/7.

Then multiply 1/5 with 10/7. The result will be 2/7.

2/7 + 3/28 = 11/28
