The volunteers at a high school football team’s concession stand are trying to decide on the price of the hot dogs they are sell

ing. When they charge $2 for a hot dog, they sell an average of 70 hot dogs per game. With every $1 increase in the price, the number of hot dogs sold per game decreases by 8.
The volunteers can calculate the revenue earned from selling the hot dogs at each game using the expression -8x2 + 54x + 140, where x is the number of $1 increases in price

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) =

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.

10 POINTS + BRAINLIEST TO FIRST CORRECT ANSWER!!! THANK YOU!
Fofino [41]

Answer:

The answer is A (Look at the graph of the relationship. Find the y-value of the point that corresponds to x = 1. That value is the unit rate)

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the proportional relation is defined by k = \frac{y}{x}. If ratio is \frac{units}{1unit} then it is a rate. Unit rate means per 1 unit such as \frac{amountofmoney}{1kg} or \frac{km}{1hour} thus the correct answer is A.

Anna71 [15]

Answer:

7%

11%

5%

14%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find a numbers percentage of another number you simply divide the smaller number by the bigger number then move the decimal point to the right 2 places.

Percentage of workers who prefer chicken soup who are part-time: 35÷500 = 0.07 move the decimal 2 to the right to get 7%.

Percentage of full-time workers who prefer mushroom soup: 55÷500 = 0.11 move the decimal 2 to the right to get 11%.

Percentage of workers who prefer lintel soup who are full-time: 25÷500 = 0.05 move the decimal 2 to the right to get 5%.

Percentage of part-time workers who prefer tomato soup: 70÷500 = 0.14 move the decimal 2 to the right to get 14%.

Hope this helps! :)
