Answer:

  103

Step-by-step explanation:

For 1200 eggs, the caterer needs ...

  (1200 eggs)/(12 eggs/carton) = 100 cartons

of unbroken eggs.

The rate of broken eggs is 1 in 3×12 = 1 in 36, so the caterer must buy 36 eggs for each 35 unbroken eggs delivered.

Then the number of cartons that must be purchased is ...

  (100 cartons)(36/35) = 102 6/7 cartons

The caterer should buy 103 cartons of eggs.

What would be the value of 150 after eight years if you earn 12 percent interest per year
Monica [59]
The answer depends on what type of interest. If you are using compound interest, then the interest is different every year, as the amount you earn goes up because the amount you have in the bank goes up. Simple interest is the opposite, as you earn one amount each year, and it does not change.
So.....
Simple Interest:
0.12 * 150 = 18
18 * 8 = 144
144 + 150 = $294
Compound Interest:
150(1 + 0.12)^8
150 * 1.12^8
150 * 2.475 = $371

Answer:

The answer is x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

1. First you need to distribute the 3/4 * (x + 8). This looks like (3/4) * (x) + (3/4) * (8) = 9

2. Next you simplify the distributed equation, 3/4x + 6 = 9

3. Now subtract 6 from both sides, 3/4x = 3

4. Multiply both sides by 4/3, 4/x * 3/4x = 3 * 4/3

5. Simplify, x = 4
