Fixed price costs
Crew salaries            350
fuel                              120
overheads                  170
Total fixed cost:          640

Variable costs per passenger
refreshments           $ 6.50
refund                       $ 3.64
total variable cost:   10.14  

Sales income
<span>Average ticket      $ 36 .40

</span><span>Break-even point =   <u>                                 (fixed costs)                           </u>
                                    (income per passenger – costs per passenger) </span><span>

</span>
Break even =  640 / (36.40-10.14) = 640 / 26.26 = 24.37

When the x is slove and you have to slove for the y i got how to do it but i don't know which one am i sloving for in the equati

Since x=8y, subsitute 8y for x in other equation

y=6x-11
y=6(8y)-11
y=48y-11
minus y both sides
0=47y-11
add 11 to both sides
11=47y
divide both sides by 47
\frac{11}{47}=y
subsitute taht for y to find x

x=8y
x=8(\frac{11}{47})
x=\frac{88}{47}



x=\frac{88}{47}
y=\frac{11}{47}
in (x,y) form
(x,y)
(\frac{88}{47},\frac{11}{47})

Add the two expressions.<br><br> 2x + 6 and 6x −1<br><br> Enter your answer in the box.
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

8x +5

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum is found by combining "like" terms—those that have the same arrangement of variables.

The first expression, 2x +6, has terms 2x and 6.

The second expression, 6x -1, has terms 6x and -1.

In each case, the first term listed is first-degree in the variable x. These are "like" terms, so can be added:

... 2x +6x = (2+6)x = 8x

The second term listed in each case is a constant. These are "like" terms, so can be added:

... 6 + (-1) = 5

Then the sum of the given expressions is the sum of the results from adding like terms:

... 8x + 5
