Answer:
<em>The company needs to sell 40 desks to break even</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Application of Equations</u>
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
The company needs to sell 40 desks to break even

Answer:
tan 10 degrees.
Step-by-step explanation:
tan x = cot (90 - x) so:
cot 80 = cot (90 - 10)
= tan 10.
Answer:
2x³ + 11x² + 8x - 16
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply:
(x + 4) (2x² +3x - 4)
2x³ + 3x² - 4x + 8x² + 12x - 16
Combine like terms:
2x³ + 11x² + 8x - 16
Step-by-step explanation:
to find a common denominator, you have to find a number that "works" with every other number.
for example, say you have
2/4 and 8/12
First you need to find the common factor between 4 and 12, so list all your fours
4, 8, 12, 16, 20
Now list all your twelves
12, 24, 36, 48, 60
to find the common factor you look at both your list of numbers and find one that's the same, sometimes it takes a long list of numbers to find the common factor, but you will run into one.
So by looking at our list we see that 4 and 12 share the common factor of 12. but since 8/12 already has a denominator of 12, we are going to leave it alone.
now think about what you would multiply 4 by, to get to 12. The answer is
4 x 3 = 12
to make the numerator correct, you multiply it by the same number you did 4, so since your faction is 2/4 you should do 2 x 3 = 6
now you have your answer,
2/4 and 8/12 turns into
6/12 and 8/12
and that's how you find it, let me know if you have questions :)
