A taco stand sells tacos for $3.35 easch. The stands expenses for the day are $210. Define our variables and write an inequality to represent the amount of tacos they need to sell per day to make a profit, and then solve the inequality. Provide your conclusion as a complete sentence. Thank you for your help. I am taking final and have few I just don't know. please show work. I have more problems similar to work out. :)
This is added to my question: Represent the above relationship between the number of triangles and the perimeter of the figures they form by filling in the table (Number of triangles perimeter 1 2 3)
tacos and triangles??
I think it's two separate questions. I was confused.
Could you please help me with History? Thanks!
Done.
To solve this problem, let's define our variables:
Let x be the number of tacos the stand needs to sell per day to make a profit.
Now, let's determine the equation for the profit:
The revenue from selling tacos would be the price of each taco multiplied by the number of tacos sold:
Revenue = Number of Tacos * Price per Taco
So, the revenue can be expressed as 3.35x.
The expenses for the day are given as $210.
To make a profit, the revenue needs to be greater than the expenses. Therefore, we can write the inequality:
3.35x > 210
Now, let's solve the inequality for x:
Divide both sides of the inequality by 3.35:
x > 210 / 3.35
x > 62.69
Since we can't sell a fraction of a taco, round up to the nearest whole number:
x > 63
Conclusion: The taco stand needs to sell at least 63 tacos per day to make a profit.
