A company has a $150 budget to provide lunch for its 20 employees. The options are to provide either roast beef sandwiches, which cost $5 apiece, or tuna sandwiches, which also cost $5 apiece. The company also wants to use the entire budget. Suppose r represents the number of roast beef sandwiches it provides and t represents the number of tuna sandwiches. Which statement is correct?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: I don't know your options, but here are some facts:
-all their options are sandwiches, and they all cost 5 dollars.

-This means that they can buy 150/5=30 sandwiches. This will make them use the entire budget!

-I would suggest cutting the sandwiches in half, then everyone gets three halves!

and if you say r for roast beef and t for tuna, you can write:

r+t=30.

and you can distribute is freely as long as both are 0 or bigger and their sum is 30!
Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:

D.The company cannot provide lunch for all 20 employees and use the entire budget because there is no solution to the system of equations r + t = 20 and 5 r + 5 t = 150.

The information shown here only shows a principal sum, a rate of interest and a period or time. There is no question as to what is needed. But suppose the need is for simple interest, then we calculate using the given information and the formula:I = PRTwhere I is simple interest, P is the principal, R is the rate per year, and T is timeP = 290, T is 6 months which is 0.5 years, R = 12.5 % which is written as 0.125 in decimal fraction.I = 290 × 0.125 x 0.5 → I = 18.125Therefore after 6 months , the interest earned will be 18. 125 dollars
