Northwest Molded molds plastic handles with a variable cost of $1.00 per handle. The fixed cost to run the molding machine is $2

560 per week. If the company sells the handles for $3.00 each, how many handles must be molded weekly to break even? What is the profit if 1500 handles are produced and sold?

Answer:

To break even it  must be molded 1280 handles weekly.

The profit if 1500 handles are produced and sold is $440

Step-by-step explanation:

To break even, the amount of total cost must be the same as the amount of revenues.  

Total Cost is Fixed cost plus unitary variable cost multiplied by the produce quantity.  

Total cost= FC + vc*Q

Where

FC=Fixed cost

vc=unitary variable cos

Q=produce quantity

Revenue= Price * Q

Break even FC + vc*Q=Price * Q

Isolating Q

FC=(Price * Q)-(vc*Q)

FC=(Price-vc) * Q

Q= FC/(Price-vc)

Q= $2560/($3.00-$1.00)=1280

If we sold 1500 handles

Profit = Revenue- Total cost =(Price * Q)-(FC + vc*Q)

P=$3.00 *1500-$2560 - $1.00*1500=

P=$4500-$2560-$1500=440

Use the Commutative Property to write an expression equivalent to -5d + 6
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

6 - 5d is an expression equivalent to -5d + 6 using the commutative Property of Addition.

Step-by-step explanation:

Commutative Property of Addition

We know that we can add two numbers in any order.

For example,

Let 'a' and 'b' be two numbers.

We can add  'a' and 'b' numbers in any order, such as

a + b = b + a

Thus,

a + b = b + a is represented using the commutative Property of Addition.

In our case,

-5d + 6 can be written or represented using the commutative Property of Addition, such as

-5d + 6 = 6 - 5d

It is clear that -5d + 6 can be written in any order such as 6 - 5d.

In other words, 6 - 5d is an expression equivalent to -5d + 6 using the commutative Property of Addition.

Therefore, 6 - 5d is an expression equivalent to -5d + 6 using the commutative Property of Addition.

Mr. phill stopped to fill his car with gas on the way to New York. It took 1 ¼ minutes to fill a 15 liters of gas in his tank. A
KatRina [158]

Answer:

  • 4 1/6 min or 4 min 10 sec

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Filling rate is:</u>

  • 15 ÷ 1 1/4 = 15 ÷ 5/4 = 15 × 4/5 = 12 l/min

<u>Total volume is 50 l, time required to fill is:</u>

  • 50/12 = 4 2/12 = 4 1/6 min or 4 min 10 sec

The parabola opens upward has x = 2 as an axis of symmetry and contains the non -vertex points (1, 9) and (4, 27) write the equa
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

<h3>               f(x) = 6(x - 2)² + 3</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = a(x - h)² + k    - vertex form of the equation of the parabola with vertex (h, k)

"the parabola opens upward" means:  a>0

"the parabola has x = 2 as an axis of symmetry" means:  h = 2

so f(x) = a(x - 2)² + k

"the parabola contains the point (1, 9)" means:

9 = a(1 - 2)² + k

9 = a(-1)² + k

9 = a + k

k = 9 - a

"the parabola contains the point (4, 27)" means:

27 = a(4 - 2)² + k

so:

27 = a(2)² + 9 - a

27 = 4a + 9 - a

3a = 18

a = 6

and  k = 9 - 6 = 3

Therefore the vertex form for this parabola is:

                                     <u> f(x) = 6(x - 2)² + 3</u>
