The answer for your question is 12.
Answer:
5x − 4 = 3x + 8
5x - 4 <em>+ 4</em> = 3x + 8 <em>+ 4</em>
5x = 3x + 12
5x <em>- 3x</em> = 3x + 12 <em>- 3x</em>
2x = 12
2x <em>/ 2</em> = 12 <em>/ 2</em>
x = 6
To determine the equation to represent this situation, we can use 2.5x to show the amount of profit per product, and a y intercept value of -550 to show the cost for rent. Now, we have the equation y=2.5x-550.
The break even point is when the profits balance out the expenses, so in this case, y should equal 0.
0=2.5x-550
Add 550 to both sides...
550=2.5x
Divide both sides by 2.5...
x=220
So, our answer is 220 products.
The line that is parallel to this line will have the same slope of this line, as the two will never intersect. They will run side by side. The line y = 2x - 5 is written in slope-intercept form, which is y = mx + b. The value of m represents the slope, and in this equation m = 2. Therefore, the line we are looking for will have a slope of 2 also.
That line should also be in slope-intercept form. We now know the value of m, but we also know the value of x and y. The ordered pair (8, 10) is a point on the line, and every ordered pair is in the form (x, y). Therefore, x = 8 and y = 10. We can plug those values into y = mx + b, along with m = 2. That gives us:
10 = 2(8) + b We need to solve for b.
10 = 16 + b
b = -6
