Let
x--------->number of products
y1--------> <span>the cost of producing a product
y2------> </span><span>the cost of sell a product
</span><span>
we know that
y1=120,000+20x-------> equation 1
y2=50x------> equation 2

equate equation 1 and equation 2
120,000+20x=50x
50x-20x=120,000
30x=120,000
x=4000

the answer is
4000 pieces</span>

Find the value of each measure.
zloy xaker [14]

The two congruent base angles tell us that this is an isosceles triangle, meaning the triangle has two congruent sides. Therefore, we can set these two expressions equal to each other and solve from there.

15x + 7 = 23x - 17

7 = 8x - 17

8x = 24

x = 3

Side = 15(3) + 7 = 45 + 7 = 52

Hope this helps!

A company produces a set of blocks. It costs them $5 to make. They mark it up 300% when they sell it to a toy distributor. The t
Nostrana [21]
Hello! So, the toy company makes blocks that cost $5 to make. Then, they mark it up by 300%, which is marking the price up by 4. 100% markup is doubling the price, 200% is tripling the price, and 300% marks the price up by 4. Then, the blocks would cost $20. After that, the price would be marked up by 150%, so that’s 2.5 times the price of the original. When you do $20 by 2.5, then the blocks cost $50. The local toy store will mark the block up by 200%, which as said before, is tripling the price. Then, you do 50 * 3, and then the price of the blocks is $150. Then, it gets marked off by 30% and 10% of 150 is 15, so 30% off 150 is 45. When you do 150 - 45, the difference is $105. Then, you take off an additional 15%, But you would still have to pay 85% of the original price. You would do 105 * 0.85, and then you would get $89.25 for the blocks. But that’s not all. You have to pay 8% sales tax for the blocks. You can find the tax by doing 89.25 * 0.08 and then adding the prices together. Or, you can do 89.25 * 1.08 to find the total price. Either way, the product should be 96.39. The total price you paid for the blocks is $96.39.
