Step-by-step explanation:

first we need to find the length of CD, so that we can use Pythagoras to find AC.

to get CD we use again Pythagoras. there is a smaller right-angled triangle on top of the BCD rectangle.

so, AD = 11 = 4 + 7

7 = the vertical leg of the upper right-angled triangle.

the horizontal leg is congruent to CD and is

sqrt(16² - 7²) = sqrt(256 - 49) = sqrt(207).

AC² = sqrt(207)² + 11² = 207 + 121 = 328

AC = sqrt(328) = 18.11077028... cm ≈ 18.1 cm

Answer:

The company needs to sell 40 desks to break even

Step-by-step explanation:

Application of Equations

There is virtually no limit to the possible situations where equations can help to find the solution of specific problems related to areas like economy, where one could need to establish some important indicators about the business.

B. The fixed cost for Abstract Office Supplies to sell a new computer desk is $14,000. Each desk will cost $150 to produce. The cost function to produce X desks is

C(x)=150x+14,000

A. The revenue for each desk is estimated at $500, for X desks will be

R(x)=500x

C. The company will break even when the cost and the revenue are the same. We'll find how many desks need to be sold for that to happen. We equate

C(x)=R(x)

Or equivalently

150x+14,000=500x

Rearranging

500x-150x=14,000

350x=14,000

Solving for x

x=14,000/350= 40
