Answer: 48 sold-out performances must be played in order for you to break even.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of sold-out performances must be played in order for you to break even.

You invest in a new play. The cost includes an overhead of $30,000, plus production costs of $2500 per performance. This means that the total cost of x sold out performances would be

2500x + 30000

A sold-out performance brings you $3125. This means that he total revenue from x sold out performances would be

3125x

To break even, cost = revenue

Therefore,

2500x + 30000 = 3125x

3125x - 2500x = 30000

625x = 30000

x = 30000/625

x = 48

Find the area of a square with a diagonal of 8cm.
klio [65]
You have to use the Pythagorean theorem but there is a little twist here since a square has has equal sides. So:
x^2+x^2=8
2x^2=8
2/2x^2=8/2
x^2=4
√x^2=√4
x=2
The side of the square is 2.
So now the area of a square is:
Side×Side
2×2=4
The area of the square is 4 centimetres

A kite is currently flying at an altitude of 19 meters above the ground. If the angle of elevation from the ground to the kite i
polet [3.4K]
Visualize the kite as a triangle, with the point where the kite is anchored being 'A', the kite being 'B', and the point directly below the kite being 'C'. We know that line segment BC is 19 meters, and can use trigonometry to find the length of the string, line segment AB. The operator 'sin' can be calculated by dividing the opposite leg over the hypotenuse, so given the angle 'A', we can solve for the hypotenuse. sin(33)= \frac{19}{x}. If we solve for 'x', we get x=  \frac{19}{sin(33)}. Plug 19 over sin(33) into your calculator and you get 34.885, so the answer is A, 35 feet
