Ella has a part-time job selling cupcakes at a cart in the park. She is paid $25 for a shift plus a fee of $0.25 for each cupcak

e she sells. A) Write and equation that can be used to solve for the total amount, t, Ella earns for working a shift in the park and selling c cupcakes. Ella works a shift and earns $38. B. Use the equation you wrote for part A to solve for the number of cupcakes Ella sold during her shift. Show your work. In the summer, the average number of cupcakes sold during a weekday shift is 36 and the average number of cupcakes sold during a weekend shift is 62. Ella has been given the choice to work a regular schedule of 3 weekday shifts each week or 2 weekend shifts each week. C. Explain which schedule will allow Ella to earn $300 more quickly. Support your answer with mathematical evidence, and state which shift Ella should choose.

Answer:

  A) t = 0.25c +25

  B) c = 52

  C) 3 weekday shifts

Step-by-step explanation:

A. The amount Ella earns is $0.25 per cupcake, so for c cupcakes, that is ...

  0.25c

In addition, she is paid $25, so her total amount she is paid is ...

  t = 0.25c +25

__

B. In order to earn $38, the number of cupcakes sold must be ...

  38 = 0.25c +25

  13 = 0.25c . . . . . . subtract 25

  52 = c . . . . . . . . . multiply by 4

Ella sold 52 cupcakes to earn $38.

__

C. On one of the average weekdays, Ella could be expected to earn ...

  t = 0.25(36) +25 = 34

Then for 3 weekday shifts, her earnings would be 3($34) = $102. (It would take Ella 3 weeks to earn $300.)

On one of the average weekend shifts, Ella could be expected to earn ...

  t = 0.25(62) +25 = 40.50

Then for 2 weekend shifts, her earnings would be 2($40.50) = $81. (It would take Ella 4 weekends to earn $300.)

Ella would earn $300 more quickly by working weekday shifts.

Berto invested in a precious mineral. The value of the mineral tend to increase by about 11% per year. He invest $40,000 in 2015
stealth61 [152]

the difference from 40000 to the future value in 2020, namely 5 years later is simply the yield or interest amount.


\bf ~~~~~~ \textit{Simple Interest Earned} \\\\ I = Prt\qquad \begin{cases} I=\textit{interest earned}\\ P=\textit{original amount deposited}\dotfill & \$40000\\ r=rate\to 11\%\to \frac{11}{100}\dotfill &0.11\\ t=years\dotfill &5 \end{cases} \\\\\\ I=(40000)(0.11)(5)\implies I=22000

Rewrite the expression using the GCF and distributive property. (110-44)
Afina-wow [57]

let me divide your question into two parts A and B as;

A.Rewrite the expression using the GCF and distributive property. (110-44)

B.how many 24-foot jump ropes can be made from a rope that is 100 feet long?

Answer:

A.(110-44)=22(5-2)

B. 4 jump ropes of 24 feet length

Step-by-step explanation:

A.Rewrite the expression using the GCF and distributive property. (110-44

Answer:

Find the GCF of 110 and 44 then take that GCF as common factor out of (110-44) then we can get new expression for (110-44) as 22(5-2) i.e.

prime factorization of 110=2x5x11

and 44=2x2x11

GCf is the product of factors that appear in both of the prime factorization which is 2x11=22

thus using GCF (22) as common factor we can rewrite the given expression as

22(5-2) which is distributive law of multiplication over subtraction.

B.how many 24-foot jump ropes can be made from a rope that is 100 feet long?

Answer:

Given

Total length of the rope =100 feet

length of a jump rope =24

solution:

For one jump-rope we need 24 feet

For two jump-ropes we need 48 feet

For three jump-ropes we need 72 feet

For four jump-ropes we need 96 feet

thus from a 100 feet long rope we can make 4 jump-ropes of 24 feet length with 6 feet remaining as extra.
