Answer:

a) $10.42

b) 11 trips

c) 10 cookies

d) 12/125ths of a cheesecake (or 9.6%)

Step-by-step explanation:

a)  

Let x = the cost of admission for each student

Let y = the total cost of admission

⇒  y = 12x  

⇒  125 = 12x  

⇒  x = 125 ÷ 12  

⇒  x = 10.42

So the cost of admission for each student = $10.42

b)

Let x = the number of trips

Let y = the total number of passengers

⇒  y = 12x

⇒  125 = 12x  

⇒  x = 125 ÷ 12  

⇒  x = 10.42

Therefore, the van must make 11 trips in order to bring 125 passengers to the same location.  (If it took 10 trips, then it would only bring 120 passengers, hence why we have to round make 11 trips to bring the last 5 passengers).

c)

Let x = the number of cookies each neighbor will receive

Let y = the total number of baked cookies

⇒  y = 12x

⇒  125 = 12x  

⇒  x = 125 ÷ 12  

⇒  x = 10.42

Therefore, each neighbor will receive 10 cookies (we have to round it down, as if each neighbor received 11 cookies, we would need 132 in total).

d)

Let x = the number of cheesecakes purchased

Let y = the amount of cheescake each guest will receive

⇒  y = 125x

⇒  12 = 125x  

⇒  x = 12 ÷ 125

⇒  x = 12/125 = 0.096 = 9.6%

Therefore, each guest will receive 12/125ths of a cheesecake (or 9.6%).

A campus deli serves 101 customers over its busy lunch period from 11:30 am to 1:30 pm. A quick count of the number of customers
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

21.38 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

the total number served = 101

teh number of hours that is spent in serving from 11.30 to 1.30 = 2 hours

Lq = average number of those that are in line = 18 customers

from here we are to find the flow rate

= \frac{total served}{service hour}

= 101/2 = 50.5

the average time in waiting =

Lq/flow rate

= 18/50.5

= 0.3564 hours

convert to minutes = 0.3564 * 60 minutes

= 21.38 minutes
