Answer:

There were 240 more credit card sales than cash sales.

Step-by-step explanation:

By using the ratio 8:3 I was able to determine that if there were 144 cash sales that would mean that there would be 384 credit card sales. However, the question asks "How many <u>more</u> credit card sales were there than cash sales?" Meaning that we need to find the difference. 384-144= 240.

This means that there were 240 <u>more</u> credit card sales than cash sales.

Hope this helped! If you have any questions about what I did please comment!

And if this helped please mark brainliest!

Have a great day!!

A company makes electronic gadgets. One out of every 50 gadgets is faulty, but the company doesn't know which ones are faulty un
Talja [164]

Answer:

Yes, the company can expect a profit in the long term

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are to project if a company is expected to make a profit or loss given the information in the question.

Let’s use the scenario of 50 gadgets produced.

1 is expected to be faulty, while 49 is thus expected to work perfectly.

Now, on this 49 sold, there is an expectancy of $3 profit. Hence, this means that for a batch of 50 gadgets produced, the amount of expected profit will be 49 * 3 = $147

The amount that would be used to repair the faulty unit is $80. If we subtract this from the total expected profit, we have $147-$80 = $67

Hence, per 50 gadgets sold, a total of $67 in profit is to be expected

This means profit is expected in the long tey

Solve five and three sixths minus two and one third.
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

3 3/18

Step-by-step explanation:

5 3/6-2 1/3

We first need to turn our mixed numbers into fractions by multiplying the while number by the denominator, then adding the numerator. When we do this, 5 3/6 turns into 33/6 and 2 1/3 turns into 7/3. Now we have this:

33/6-7/3

Now we need to find the Least common multiple of the denominators in order to find our common denominator, which in this case is 6. 33/6 already has a denominator of 6, so we do not need to do anything to it. To give a denominator of 6 to 7/3, however, we must multiply by 2, giving us this:

33/6-14/6

Now we can subtract the numerators.

19/6

To turn this back into a mixed number, we divide 19 by 6, which gives us 3 with a remainder of 1. Therefore, our answer is 3 1/6. This is an equivalent fraction to the fourth answer, 3 3/18.

70 POINTS Given the function, f (x) = 1/x-1 - 5 , choose the correct transformation.
matrenka [14]

Answer:

right 1, down 5

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given function as

f(x)=\frac{1}{x-1}-5

Firstly, we will find parent function

f(x)=\frac{1}{x}

We can see that in place of x , we have x-1

so, it is shifted right side by 1 unit

and 5 is subtracted from y-value

so, it is shifted downward by 5 units

right 1, down 5.........Answer
