A
printing
plant
that
produces
baseball
cards
has
a
monthly
overhead
of
$6,000.
It
costs
18
cents
to
print
each
card,
and
the
cards
sell
for
30
cents
each.
How
many
cards
must
the
printing
plant
sell
each
month
in
order
to
make
a
profit?
-
ANS
50,000
Let
x
=
the
number
of
cards
printed
and
sold
each
month.
Each
card
costs
$0.18
to
print
and
sells
for
$0.30.
Therefore,
the
cost
is
equal
to
6,000
+
0.18x,
and
revenue
is
equal
to
0.30x.
You're
looking
for
the
point
where
revenue
is
greater
than
the
cost
(revenue
>
cost).
The
inequality
is0.30x
>
6,000
+
0.18xNow
solve
for
x.
Subtract
0.18x
from
both
sides
of
the
inequality
and
then
divide
both
sides
by
0.12:The
printing
plant
would
have
to
print
and
sell
50,000
cards
per
month
to
make
a
profit.
Joe
received
an
hourly
wage
of
$8.15.
His
boss
gave
him
a
7%
raise.
How
much
does
Joe
make
per
hour
now?
-
ANS
$8.72
Joe
gets
a
7%
raise.
To
calculate
the
new
wage,
start
off
by
multiplying
$8.15
×
0.07
=
$0.57.
Then
add
that
number
(the
amount
of
Joe's
raise)
to
his
original
hourly
wage.
Joe's
new
hourly
wage
is
$8.15
+
$0.57
=
$8.72.
