The break even point is when profit is equal to zero, or in this case when p(x)=0

4x^2-28x+40=0

4(x^2-7x+10)=0

4(x^2-2x-5x+10)=0

4(x(x-2)-5(x-2))=0

4(x-5)(x-2)=0

So the break even points are when x=2 and 5, which is when 2000 and 5000 units are sold.

quester [9]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a1 = 6

a2 = 10

a3 = 14

The next member of the sequence is 4 more than the current sequence. Therefore d = 4

a1 = 6

d = 4

n = 13

an = a1 + (n - 1)*d

an = 6 + (n - 1)*4

a_13 = 6 + 12*4

a_13 = 6 + 48

a_13 = 54

[PROBABILITY] THERE ARE FOUR PEOPLE IN A ROOM THAT HAVEN'T MET BEFORE. THEY ARE TOLD TO SHAKE HANDS, EXACTLY ONCE, OF EVERY OTHE
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the 4 people be A, B, C and D. If each of them shakes hands with another person exactly one time then that means

A shakes with B, C and D. So 3 handshakes

B already shakes with A. So B shakes with C and D. 2 handshakes

C already shakes with A and B. So C shakes with D only. 1 handshake.

D already shake hand with all above.

Total handshakes: 3 + 2 + 1 = 6
