The two options that are the possible first step to begin to simplify the equation are (c) Multiply both sides of the equation by –2. and (d). Distribute Negative one-half over (x + 4).

<h3>How to determine which two options are the possible first step to begin to simplify the equation?</h3>

The equation is given as:

Negative one-half (x + 4) = 6

Rewrite the above equation properly

So, we have

-1/2(x + 4) = 6

A possible first step is to multiply both sides of the equation -1/2(x + 4) = 6 by -2

So, we have

x + 4 = -12

Another possible first step is to distribute the expression -1/2(x + 4) in the equation

So, we have

-1/2x - 1/2 * 4 = 6

Hence, the two options that are the possible first step to begin to simplify the equation are (c) Multiply both sides of the equation by –2. and (d). Distribute Negative one-half over (x + 4).

Answer:

  360

Step-by-step explanation:

Sam obtains a "contribution margin" of $0.50 -0.25 = $0.25 per cookie. That will cover the cost of baking supplies when he sells ...

  $90 / ($0.25/cookie) = 360 cookies

Sam needs to sell 360 cookies before he can start making a profit.

_____

If you like, you can find Sam's break-even point by equating revenue and cost. The is the number of cookies Sam must sell for a profit of 0, that is, for non-negative profit.

  P = R - C

  0 = R - C

  R = C

  0.50n = 90 +0.25n

  0.25n = 90 . . . . subtract 0.25n

  n = 90/0.25 = 360 . . . .divide by the coefficient of n

You may notice this is similar to our description above.

Express 192 as a prime factors in order
iVinArrow [24]
You can write this two ways - as a list of prime factors, or combine like factors and represent their quantity with an exponent.
If you begin by dividing by two, you can do that six times, with a three as the remaining prime factor.
