The operation you would ue is division
Part 1) <span>Each sandwich costs $.02 per cubic inch to make. What is the cost of each sandwich?
</span>volume for cube sandwich is 125 in³
volume for pyramid sandwich is 41.67 in³
cost of each cube sandwich=0.02*125-----> $2.5
cost of each pyramid sandwich=0.02*41.67-----> $0.83
the answers Part 1) are
a) cost of each cube sandwich is $2.5
b) cost of each pyramid sandwich is $0.83
Part 2) <span>If each sandwich sells for $4.00 and Mr. Sammie sells 100 Cube sandwiches and 100 Pyramid Sandwiches, how much profit would Mr. Sammie make?
</span>
we know that
Profit=Sells-Costs
step 1
find the sells
Sells=200*$4-----> $800
step 2
find the costs
Costs=100*$2.5+100*$0.83----> $333
step 3
find the profit
Profit=Sells-Costs
Profit=$800-$333-----> $467
the answer Part 2) is
the profit is $467
1. (0.5)2=1
2. (-0.2) + (-0.05) = -0.25
3. |-3 + 2.75| = 0.25
4. -(-0.25) = 0.25
5. 2x - 1.75x = 0.25x
So your answers are 3 and 4.
