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.

Write 2350 million in standard form
AleksAgata [21]

we know that

<u>Standard Form</u> is also known as Scientific Notation, is a method of writing numbers that accommodates value excessively large or small to be suitably written in Standard Decimal Notation

in this problem we have

2,350\ million

Remember that

1\ million=1,000,000

so

2,350\ million=2,350*1,000,000=2,350,000,000

<u>convert to standard form </u>

2,350,000,000=2.35*10^{9}

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

2.35*10^{9}

Parking spaces at a business school are arranged by a random monthly lottery. there are 3 spaces for every 10 students who want
Alexus [3.1K]

27.034%  
Let's define the function P(x) for the probability of getting a parking space exactly x times over a 9 month period. it would be: 
P(x) = (0.3^x)(0.7^(9-x))*9!/(x!(9-x)!)  
Let me explain the above. The raising of (0.3^x)(0.7^(9-x)) is the probability of getting exactly x successes and 9-x failures. Then we shuffle them in the 9! possible arrangements. But since we can't tell the differences between successes, we divide by the x! different ways of arranging the successes. And since we can't distinguish between the different failures, we divide by the (9-x)! different ways of arranging those failures as well. So P(4) = 0.171532242 meaning that there's a 17.153% chance of getting a parking space exactly 4 times. 
Now all we need to do is calculate the sum of P(x) for x ranging from 4 to 9.

So
 P(4) = 0.171532242
 P(5) = 0.073513818
 P(6) = 0.021003948
 P(7) = 0.003857868
 P(8) = 0.000413343
 P(9) = 0.000019683
  And
 0.171532242 + 0.073513818 + 0.021003948 + 0.003857868 + 0.000413343
+ 0.000019683 = 0.270340902 
 So the probability of getting a parking space at least four out of the nine months is 27.034%
