Answer:

The artist begins to profit when n > 8.18

That means the quantity of necklaces must exceed 8.18.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

let n represent the number of necklaces

booth fee= $135

The expense for materials per necklace = $4.5n

the overall selling price for all necklaces = $12n

total costs= booth fee + material costs = $135 + 4.5n

profit = selling price - total costs

12n > 135 + 4.50n

By solving for n, we find

12n=135 + 4.50n

12n + 4.5n = 135

16.5n = 135

n = 135/16.5

n = 8.18

Hence, the artist achieves profits when n > 8.18.

John needs 13 bottles of water from the store. john can only carry 3 at a time. what's the minimum number of trips john needs to
Inessa [12570]
The smallest number of trips he must make is 5. Since he can carry only 3 bottles per trip, 5 trips would allow him to transport 15 bottles.
Though it might seem like 4 trips could suffice, as 4 times 3 is 12, that's one bottle short of 13.
Hence, an additional trip is needed to carry the last bottle, totaling 5 trips.

Inessa [12570]

Answer:

Area= 247 feet²

Volume= 1235 feet³

Step-by-step explanation:

The storage pod features a rectangular base measuring 19 feet by 13 feet, with a flat ceiling height of 5 feet above.

Calculating the area of the floor yields: length multiplied by width

Length = 19 feet

Width = 13 feet

Area = 19*13

Area = 247 feet²

The volume of the pod can be found by multiplying the area by the height

Height of the pod = 5 feet

Area = 247 feet²

Volume = 247*5

Volume = 1235 feet³
