The cost per box of cookies is $3.75

The total amount Hannah raised from the sales of cookies is $52.50

The total amount Mallory raised from the sales of cookies and donations is $88.50

In order to determine the cost per box of cookies, take the following steps:

The first step is to determine the total sum of the boxes sold by Hannah and Mallory

Sum of the boxes sold = 14 + 22 = 36 boxes

36 boxes were sold by Hannah and Mallory

The second step is to determine the total cost of the 36 boxes sold.

Total cost of 36 boxes = total amount raised - donation

$141 - $6 = $135

The third step is to determine the total cost of each box

cost of one box = total cost of 36 boxes / total number of boxes

135 / 36 = $3.75

The total amount Hannah raised = cost per box x number of boxes she sold

14 x $3.75 = $52.50

The total amount Mallory raised = amount raised from the sale of cookies + donation

amount raised from sales = cost per box x number of boxes she sold

22 x $3.75 = $82.50

Total amount = $82.50 + $6 = $88.50

∠A and ∠B are vertical angles. If m∠A=(3x-30)° and m∠B=(2x-9)°,then find the value of x.
olganol [36]

Answer:

x = 21°

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertical angles have the same measures, therefore:

3x - 30 = 2x - 9

x - 30 = -9

x = 21°

Read the following scenario, which is represented by a polynomial expression. Then answer the questions to interpret the parts o
Effectus [21]

Answer:

x is the number of $1 increase in the price.

If there is no increase, then the total money earned is

2 × 70 = 140

If there is $1 increase, then the total money earned is

(2 + 1) × [70 - 8(1)]

If there is $2 increase, then the total money earned is

(2 + 2) × [70 - 8(2)]

If we continue the pattern, for x times $1 increase, total money earned is

(2 + x)(70 - 8x) = -8x^{2} +54x+140−8x2+54x+140

If we substitute x = 0 in the above equation, we will get

the total money earned = $140.

It means if there is no increase, then the total money earned = 140.

Hence, 140 is the constant term and it represents that there is no increase in price.
