Answer:

900 coins

Step-by-step explanation:

The Wiseman demands 1 gold coin for the 1st day, then 3 gold coins for the 2nd day, then 5 gold coins for the 3rd day and it continues for 30 days in this pattern.

Therefore, the total number of gold coins that he gets will be,  

1+ 3+ 5+ ..... up to 30 terms.

This is an A.P. series with the first term(a) 1 and a common difference(d) 2 and the number of terms(n) 30.

Hence, the sum of the A.P. series is given by \frac{n}{2} [2a+(n-1)d]

= \frac{30}{2} [2*1+(30-1)*2]

= 900 coins (Answer)

Find the Value of k that will make the function f(x) continuous everywhere.​
cricket20 [7]

well, if that function f(x) were to be continuos on all subfunctions, that means that whatever value 7x + k has when x = 2, meets or matches the value that kx² - 6 has when x = 2 as well, so then 7x + k = kx² - 6 when f(2)

f(x)= \begin{cases} 7x+k,&x\leqslant 2\\ kx^2-6&x > 2 \end{cases}\qquad \qquad f(2)= \begin{cases} 7(2)+k,&x\leqslant 2\\ k(2)^2-6&x > 2 \end{cases} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ 7(2)+k~~ = ~~k(2)^2-6\implies 14+k~~ = ~~4k-6 \\\\\\ 14~~ = ~~3k-6\implies 20~~ = ~~3k\implies \cfrac{20}{3}=k

At 180 it would be 9pi/3 so going past that is 10pi/3.

4. Break-Even Analysis
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

x = 1178 games

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of games = x

Let the total cost = Tc

Let the total revenue = Tr

Given the following data;

Investment = $10,000

Cost of each game = $1.50

Selling cost = $9.99

Total cost, Tc = (Cost of each game * Number of games) + Investment

Tc = 1.50x + 10000

Total revenue, Tr = Selling cost * Number of games

Tr = 9.99x

Breakeven point is when total cost is equal to total revenue;

Tc = Tr

1.50x + 10000 = 9.99x

9.99x - 1.50x = 10000

8.49x = 10000

x = \frac {10000}{8.49}

x = 1177.86 ≈ 1178 games.

<em>Therefore, the number of games that must be sold before the business breaks even is 1178 games. </em>
