Given:
Spoilage rate of fruits = 9% = 0.09
To find:
Amount of fruits to be order to have 100 pounds of peaches and considering the spoilage rate.
Solution:
Let the required amount of fruits you should order be x.
So, spoiled fruits = 9% of x = 0.09x
He would like to have 100 pounds of peaches to sell.
Divide both sides by 0.91.
The required amount of fruits to be order is 110 lbs. Therefore, the correct option is D.
Answer:
(–1.4, 1.5)
Step-by-step explanation:
The blue line and the purple line are the lines corresponding to the equations of interest. Their point of intersection is in the 2nd quadrant, so is nearest to ...
(–1.4, 1.5)
__
It can be useful to understand that for equations in standard form:
ax +by = c
the x- and y-intercepts are ...
- x-intercept: c/a . . . . value of x for y = 0
- y-intercept: c/b . . . . value of y for x = 0
__
For the equations of interest, the first has intercepts of ...
x=2/3, y=1/2 . . . . graphed line makes a 1st-quadrant triangle with the axes (blue line)
And the second has intercepts of ...
x=-1, y=-4 . . . . graphed line makes a 3rd-quadrant triangle with the axes (purple line)
Since the purple line has a steeper slope, the point of intersection of the lines will be in the 2nd quadrant. There is only one 2nd-quadrant answer choice: (-1.4, 1.5).
