Answer:

The given parabola opens to the left.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given,

The equation of the parabola is x=ay^2

If in the parabola,

<em>1. If 'a' is positive, then the parabola opens upwards or right.</em>

<em>2.</em><em> If 'a' is negative, then the parabola opens downwards or left.</em>

Moreover,

<em>3. If x is squared, then the parabola opens upwards or downwards.</em>

<em>4. </em><em>If y is squared, then the parabola opens left or right.</em>

Now, as we are given the parabola having y^2 and 'a' is negative.

Thus, from the points 4 and 2, we get,

The given parabola opens to the left.

Suppose you invest $10,400 in equipment to manufacture a new board game. Each game costs $2.65 to manufacture and sells for $20.
tamaranim1 [39]
Answer: 599.42 games
To answer this question, you need to calculate the revenue for every game sold first. The calculation would be:
Revenue= sell cost - manufacture cost= $20-$2.65= $17.35/game.

Break even is the point when the game manufacturing cost(equipment cost included) is covered by the revenue you got. Then the calculation would be:

total game cost= revenue per game * number of game sold
$10400= number of game sold * $17.35
number of game sold= 10400/17.35=  599.42 games
