|12x + 1| = 10
Remove the absolute value term and make two equations:
12x +1 = 10
12x +1 = -10
Now solve for both x values:
12x +1 = 10
Subtract 1 from both sides:
12x = 9
Divide both sides by 12:
x = 9/12
12x +1 = -10
Subtract 1 from both sides:
12x = -11
Divide both sides by 12:
x = -11/12
The answer would be (-11/12, 912)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract 13 from 17 to get the length of the base. Then add the 1, 1, and 3 together to get the height. Then you use the area formula for a triangle.
15; it represents the one-time sign-up fee
The y-intercept can be found either on the graph where the line intercepts the y-axis, or b in the equation y=mx+b.
It represents the fee because it will be charged even if the number of months (x) is zero. 10 is the monthly fee because it is multiplied by x, the number of months.
Answer:
<em>Since the profit is positive, Rebotar not only broke even, they had earnings.</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Function Modeling</u>
The costs, incomes, and profits of Rebotar Inc. can be modeled by means of the appropriate function according to known conditions of the market.
It's known their fixed costs are $3,450 and their variable costs are $12 per basketball produced and sold. Thus, the total cost of Rebotar is:
C(x) = 12x + 3,450
Where x is the number of basketballs sold.
It's also known each basketball is sold at $25, thus the revenue (income) function is:
R(x) = 25x
The profit function is the difference between the costs and revenue:
P(x) = 25x - (12x + 3,450)
Operating:
P(x) = 25x - 12x - 3,450
P(x) = 13x - 3,450
If x=300 basketballs are sold, the profits are:
P(300) = 13(300) - 3,450
P(300) = 3,900 - 3,450
P(300) = 450
Since the profit is positive, Rebotar not only broke even, they had earnings.
