Question

John sells pizzas for $10 each and earns $2 profit per pizza. He pays workers $8 per hour. What is the minimum number of pizzas a worker should produce per hour to be beneficial to John?

Two

Three

Four

Five

Answer 1

Wrong and Wrong. Use your answer in #1 and times it by 10 dollars then add 4 more dollars since 2 dollars are profited from each pizza sold. Now since two pizza were created the workers worked for 2 hours:

2 hours x 8 dollars = 16 dollars

then ask yourself how many dollars john has made already then compare the result

Answer 2

work the same process for Question #2

Answer 3

I looked at number two again... I think its Machine with $5 per hour operating cost, producing 10 pounds of candy per hour.

Answer 4

Correct for number 2. but ask yourself why that is true.

Answer 5

Ummm...I'm not really sure. I just know that option 2 is not the one, and option 4 is defiantly wrong, so it was between those two. So i'm guessing $4 is not correct for the first one?

Answer 6

You have to be logical with your answers and solutions or you won't learn anything from them. I will not help any further until you prove you have learned something in number 1 or 2.

Answer 7

Okay, well, question 1 I think is five, because he sells the pizzas for $10 each. And for the second one, I truly don't understand why that is the answer

Answer 8

It is 5, you were correct.
Four would be a no-profit, it'd just be even.
