Answer:

The puzzle expert must sell 720 copies to break even.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to solve this problem you have to write two equations analyzing the information given.

initial cost = $864

cost per book = $0.80

price of each book = $2

So, mathematically speaking:

864 + x 0.80 = y

2x = y

Substituting the 2nd equation into the first:

864 + x0.80 = 2x

864= 2x- 0.80x

864 = 1.2x

864/1.2=x

x= 720

In conclusion, the puzzle expert must sell 720 copies to break even.

Feel free to ask for more if it´s necessary or if you did not understand something.

Answer:

  1. -51
  2. -30
  3. -60
  4. 2 or -2

Step-by-step explanation:

The function puts a minus sign on 3 times the magnitude of the input.

1. y = -|3×17| = -51

2. y = -|3×10| = -30

3. y = -|3×20| = -60

4. -6 = -|3x|

  2 = |x| . . . . divide by -3

  x = ±2 . . . . two possibilities

A tub is filled with 18000 cm3 of water. It loses one-tenth of its water every 12 hours. What volume of water would be remaining
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

0 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

the lost of water =

(5×24)/12 x 1/10 × 18000

= 10/10 × 18000 = 18,000 cm³

so, the remaining water in the tub=

18,000 - 18,000 = 0 cm³

(the tub is empty)
