14000+7x=35x (x being the number of books) solve for x and you have your answer. 14000=35x-7x=28x therefore x=14000/28=500 so he needs to sell 500 books before he breaks even.
Answer;
C) The second arc should be centered at C.
Explanation;
Assuming the goal is to construct a line parallel to AB that passes through given point C.
-Draw a line through C and across AB at an angle creating D.
- With the compass width about half of DC, and center D, draw the first arc to cross both lines.
-Using the same compass width , draw the second arc with center C.
-Then set the compass width to the lower arc (the first arc)
- Move the compass to the second arc. Mark off an arc to make point E
-Draw a straight line through C and E
Thus the line CE will be parallel to line AB

Answer:
x = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
x = 2y - 4 --- Equation 1
7x + 5y = -66 --- Equation 2
I will be using the substitution method to solve this.
Substitute x = 2y - 4 into Equation 2:
7x + 5y = -66
7(2y - 4) + 5y = -66
Evaluate.
14y - 28 + 5y = -66
Evaluate like terms.
19y - 28 = -66
Isolate 19y.
19y = -66 + 28
= -38
Find y.
y = -38 ÷ 19
y = -2 --- Equation 3
Substitute y = -2 into Equation 1:
x = 2y - 4
x = 2(-2) - 4
Evaluate.
x = -4 - 4
x = -8
