$409.80.
The amount of net profit the store makes on each container is given by 1.67-0.83 (the amount it is sold for subtracted by the amount it costs the store), which is $0.84 per container. They sell 470 containers, so the net profit at this point is 470(0.84) = $394.80.
However, since the distributor is giving the store a $0.50 refund on all every container under 500 that the store sells, the store gets additional money back:
500-470 = 30 containers not sold
30(0.50) = 15
So the total profit is $394.80 + 15 = $409.80.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 12 = 1/3 (7/3x+4/3)

Answer:
Chocolate cones = x = 167 cones
Vanilla cones = y = 334 cones
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
The number of Chocolate cones = x
Vanilla cones = y
Ike's igloo sold 501 ice cream cones today.
x + y = 501.... Equation 1
They sold half as many chocolate ice cream cone as vanilla ones.
x = 1/2y
x = y/2
Cross multiply
y = 2x
We substitute 2x for y in Equation 1
x + 2x = 501
3x = 501
x = 501/3
x = 167
Solving for y
y = 2x
y = 2 × 167
y = 334
Therefore,
The number of
Chocolate cones = x = 167 cones
Vanilla cones = y = 334 cones
Answer:
x=6, x= -5
Step-by-step explanation:
Factor the equation
x^2 - x - 30 = 0 ----> (x-6)(x+5)=0
Next find the solution by setting those in the paranthesis equal to zero.
x-6=0 ----> x= 6
x+5=0 ----> x= -5
