Aslush drink machine fills 1440 cups in 24 hours. a. write an equation to find the number c of cups each symbol represents. i came up with c=60t ( t being time ). b. to lower costs, you replace the cups that hold 20% less. write and solve an equation to find the number n of paper cones that the machine can fill in 24 hours. not sure about b.

0.8 n = 1440

n = 1800

Step-by-step explanation:

The slush drink machine makes 1440 cups of slush drink in 24 hours.

The cones hold 20% less than the cups, so each cone has a volume of 0.8 cups.

The number of cones filled in 24 hours, times the volume of each cone, equals the total volume of slush drink in 24 hours.

0.8 n = 1440

Solving for n, we get n = 1800.  Which means the slush drink machine can fill 1800 cones in 24 hours.

points are handed out whenever you post answers.

brainliest answers are handed out by the person asking the question, so whether your answer is picked depends entirely on whether the asker bothers to pick

if you're asking about your rank, it depends on having a certain number of points and a certain number of brainliest answers. for example, at the time of this writing, i have 44338 points out of 15000 needed for the next (nearly triple the requirement! ) but i only have 24 out of 50 required brainliest answers. this number decays, meaning after a certain amount of time (i think about a month), the total number of brainliest answers you've earned doesn't count toward this total. (i've been stuck at the same rank for a long

the lesson to learn here is that you shouldn't worry about points or rank. chances are, no matter how good an answer you may provide, your efforts will go mostly unnoticed unless you focus on the newest/most active questions that get posted.
