A school spent $150 on advertising for a breakfast fundraiser. Each plate of food was sold for $8.00 but cost the school $2.00 to prepare. After all expenses were paid, the school raised $2,400 at the fundraiser. Which equation can be used to find x, the number of plates that were sold?

6x – 150 = 2,400
6x + 150 = 2,400
10x – 150 = 2,400
10x + 150 = 2,400

6x-150 = 2400

Given: The selling price of each plate = $8.00

The cost of plate to prepare = $2.00

Let x be the  number of plates that were sold

Then, the profit amount raised by school is given by

The amount spent by school on advertising for a breakfast fundraiser= $150

The final amount raised by school = $2,400

the population of other specie of birds will decline or other specie of birds will find some alternate source of food to survive.

explanation:

according to the competitive exclusion principle, which is also known as gause's law, two specie living in the same niche and feeding on the same resource cannot co-exist stably.

as we have well studied the theory of natural selection which states that only those organisms survive which have better tendency to compete for food and adapt to the environmental conditions.

coming towards the question, what wi ll happen when one species outcompetes the other for the small fish , the other specie will not get enough food and will start to die or decline in population. eventually either other specie needs to find another alternative food source for itself or migrate at some other location where there is less competition otherwise it will just not exist anymore at that niche.

hope it !
