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.

Two sides of a triangle measure 25 cm and 35 cm. What is the meadure of the third side?
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

43cm

Step-by-step explanation:

use the pythagorean theorem:

a² + b² = c²

25² + 35² = c²

625 + 1225 = c²

1850 = c²

√1850 = c

43 cm = c

your a, b and c values depend on where the values are on the triangle.
