Her business will break even when she contains sold 1740 bottles of her lotion.

<h3>How many bottles of lotion must she make and sell before her business breaks even?</h3>

Given: She invests $15,225 in equipment to manufacture and package her lotion each bottle costs $3.25 to manufacture and sells for $12.

"Break even" occurs when Revenue = Costs.

($12/bottle)x = $15225 + ($3.25)x

Simplifying the above equation, we get

$8.75x = $15225

Diving both sides of the equation by 8.75, we get

$8.75x/8.75 = $15225/8.75

x = 1740 bottles

Therefore, the value of x = 1740 bottles.

Her business will break even when she contains sold 1740 bottles of her lotion.

Therefore, the correct answer is option b. 1740 bottles.

Answer:

\displaystyle  \sf h( - 1) =   - \frac{    2}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given a function

\displaystyle \sf h(x) =  \frac{2x - 6}{4 {x}^{2}  + 8}

we would like to simplify it for h(-1)

in order to do so

substitute the value of x

\displaystyle \sf h( - 1) =  \frac{2 \cdot - 1- 6}{4 { (- 1)}^{2}  + 8}

by order of PEMDAS

simplify square:

\displaystyle \sf h( - 1) =  \frac{2 \cdot - 1- 6}{4 { ( 1)}^{}  + 8}

simplify multiplication:

\displaystyle \sf h( - 1) =  \frac{ - 2 - 6}{4 { }^{}  + 8}

simplify addition:

\displaystyle \sf h( - 1) =  \frac{ - 2 - 6}{12}

simplify subtraction:

\displaystyle \sf h( - 1) =  \frac{   - 8}{12}

reduce fraction:

\displaystyle  \sf h( - 1) =   - \frac{    2}{3}

On Monday a company stock closed at a price of $30.80 per share. On Tuesday it increased by $1.20 per share. On Wednesday it fel
aleksley [76]
Tuesday:
30.80 + 1.20 = 32.00

Falling by 6.25% means it ends up being 93.75% of what it used to be (100% - 6.25% = 93.75%)

Wednesday:
32.00 * 0.9375 = 30

Thursday:
30 * 0.96 = 28.8

Friday:
28.8 * 1.025 = 29.52

Net change means you subtract to get the difference.

Net change = Final - initial
= 29.52 - 30.80
= -1.28

The stock fell $1.28
