What he's saying is that 7/8 of his ties + 4 ties = all of his ties.
7/8x + 4 = x
Thus, 4 is 1/8 of his ties.
4 = 1/8x
So you simply multiply 4 by 8 to get 32 ties.
32 = x
To check, plug 32 back into the original equation:
7/8(32) + 4 = (32)
28 + 4 = 32
It works!
Hope that helps.

Sophia owns a clothing store that sells graphic T-shirts. n is the number of
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

n = 150

Step-by-step explanation:

If n is the number of T-shirt sell each month, then the revenue function of Sophia's store is r = 21n .......... (1)

and the cost function of her store is C = 16n + 750 ........ (2)

Now, at break-even point, the revenue of a business is equal to its cost.

Therefore, r = C {From equations (1) and (2)}

⇒ 21n = 16n + 750

⇒ 5n = 750

⇒ n = 150

So, the break-even point of the store will occur when the number of T-shirt production is 150. (Answer)
