6 20) When people buy gold jewelry, it is described in terms of karats. A karat is the unit that measures the purity of gold. This is the same as the percentage of pure gold. Pure gold is 24-karat gold, thus, it is 100% gold. Usually we mix gold with a metal like copper, silver, or zinc to make jewelry (because pure gold is too soft). Each karat indicates 1/24th of the whole. So, if a piece of jewelry is made of metal that is 18 parts gold and 6 parts copper, that is 18-karat gold. Thus, 18-karat gold is 18 / 24 pure gold and is 75% gold. a) Currently an ounce of 24-karat gold costs $1179 per ounce. How much would you expect an ounce of 14-karat gold to cost?

If they lower the price to p = $2.00, they will sell 500 bagels each week. The costs of doing business for a company can be found by adding fixed costs (such as rent, insurance, and wages) and variable costs (which are the costs to produce the product you are selling). The portion of the bagel shop s fixed weekly costs allotted to bagels is $200, and the supplies to produce each bagel cost $0.75. a) Assuming this relationship is linear, write an equation that relates the price, p, to the number of bagels, x, that will be sold. Your equation should look like p = mx + b. b) The revenue generated by selling these bagels comes from the product of the price times the number of bagels sold. Write a revenue equation: R = c) Write an equation for the total cost of x bagels: C = d) Last, write the profit equation: P =
