Question

The local Walmart sold 67 televisions on Tuesday, 79 televisions on Wednesday, 195 televisions on Saturday, and 82 televisions on Sunday. How many televisions were sold in all over the weekend? The parking rates at the hospital's parking garage are 50 cents for the first hour and 25 cents for each additional hour. If Juan parks in the hospital's parking garage for 8 hours, how much will the total charge for parking be? Tom is on a diet. His diet plan allows him to have 1,000 calories for dinner. He's chosen a menu of enchiladas (537 calories), asparagus (96 calories), orange salad (78 calories), and cake (633 calories). If he eats this meal, will Tom be staying on his diet?

Answer 1

The total televisions sold over the weekend equals 177.

The cost of parking equals 50 cents for the first hour plus 25 cents for the additional 7 hours. Cost = .5 +7 x .25 = $2.25

In order to see if Tom is staying on his diet you need to add the total calories of the food that he is planning on eating for dinner. The total is 1,344 calories, so if he ate all of it he would not be staying on his diet.
