A) A local shoe store buys shoes at a wholesale price and then marks them up 80% to calculate the retail price. The wholesale pr

ice varies, depending on the quantity of shoes purchased. (2 points)
Quantity 0-20 pairs 21-40 pairs 41-60 pairs 61-80 pairs 81 or more pairs
Wholesale Price
(per pair) $25.00 each $23.00 each $21.00 each $19.00 each $17.00 each

Write an equation that could be used to find the retail price for each range. How do you know the equation will work consistently for each range?

In this question, the buying price will be lower if the quantity bought is higher. But the markup ratio for retail price is constant at 80% of buying price. If the price of the range is x, then the equation of retail price would be: 
Retail price= x * (100%+80%)
Retail price= x * 180%=
Retail price=  1.8 x

The equation should be same because the markup ratio is same. Only the buying price that will be different based on the quantity of shoe purchased.

A pizza shop sells pizzas that are 10 inches (in diameter) or larger. A 10-inch cheese pizza costs
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

A pizza shop sells pizzas that are 10 inches orr larger. A 10-inch cheese pizza costs $8 and each additional costs $1.50 and each additional topping costs $0.75.

The equation that represents the cost of a pizza is:

P = $10 + $1.50a + $0.75b

Where 'a' represents the number additional inches and 'b' represents the number of additional toppings.

The number of acres in a region cleared for farming follows the formula a = f (t) = 2t2 where t is the number of months since th
Anit [1.1K]

we are given

a=f(t)=2t^2

we can use average rate of change formula from t=a to t=b

A=\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}

Here, we are given from t=1 to t=4

so, we will get formula as

A=\frac{f(4)-f(1)}{4-1}

now, we can plug values

A=\frac{2(4)^2-2(1)^2}{4-1}

now, we can simplify it

A=10

the average rate of change in the number of acres cleared for farming between t = 1 and t = 4  is 10 acres/ month.............Answer

1.) y=3
2.) y=13
     2y + y = 3y , 22+17= 39
     3y = 39 , divide 3 on each side (which cancels out the 3 with the y which leaves you with y)
3.) y=10
     3y - y = 2y , 35-15= 20
     2y=20 , do the same as # 2.
4.) y=4
     9y - 5y = 4y , 48-32= 16
     4y=16, do the same as #2 & #3
5.) (4,5)
     x + 3y = 19
   2x - 3y = -7
    solve for x first ; x + 2x= 3x , 19-7 = 12; 3x = 12 ; divide 3 ; x= 4. You know have to make the x's cancel out. so I will multiply -2 on the first equation. -2(x+3y=19)
     -2x - 6y = -38
      2x - 3y = -7
    Now solve for y ; -6y + -3y = -9y , -38 + -7 = -45; -9y=-45 ; divide by -9 (since they are both negative your answer will be positive) ; y= 5
6.) (6,8)
   x + 4y = 38
  -x - 3y = -30
solve for y first ; 4y - 3y = y , 38-30 = 8; y=8 (that simple!) Now you need to find a common multiple for 4 & 3 which is 12. So you will have to multiply each equation by either 4 or 3.
  (x + 4y = 38)*3      =     3x + 12y = 114         
 (-x - 3y = -30)*4     =     -4x - 12y = -120
solve for x ; 3x - 4x = -x , 114-120= -6 ; -x=-6. Since the x has a negative that means there's still a 1 there so -1x=-6 ; you will need to divide this which makes the 6 a positive; x=6
