Hey there!

You can write out equations for both of these situations. 

The first situation can be represented by f(x) = 382 + 2x, where 382 is the initial cost, x is the total amount of miles, 2x is the cost per additional mile, and f(x) equals to total that Jason has had to pay to drive his truck. 

The second situation can be presented by g(x) = 379 + 5x, where 379 is the initial amount Jason will get paid, x is the amount of miles he's driven, 5x is the money he's being paid depending on how many miles he's driven, and g(x) is the total amount he's been paid. 

You can graph these two equations on the computer or by hand to find where they will meet up. The place where they intersect will be the place where Jason breaks even. You can see on the graph I attached that, after one mile, the lines intersect and Jason spends and makes a total of 384 dollars. 

Hope this helped you out! :-)

With this, you need to find out the total money he needs to make to breaking even. start by subtracting 379 from 382 to get $3 and because he spends $2 on gas every mile he needs $5 for the first mile and 2 more for the rest, but because he makes $5 in one mile that's as far as he needs to drive.

A bicycle store costs ​$2250 per month to operate. The store pays an average of ​$40 per bike. The average selling price of each
lesantik [10]

Answer:

75

Step-by-step explanation:

Given That :

Operation cost = $2250 per month

Purchase price per bike = $40

Average selling price per bike = $70

How many bicycles must the store sell each month to break even ;

Break even point = point at which there is net profit / loss = 0

Let number of bicycles store must sell = x

Operation cost + (purchase price * Number of bicycles) = selling price * Number of bicycles

2250 + 40x = 70x

2250 = 70x - 40x

2250 = 30x

x = 2250 / 30

x = 75

To break even 75 bicycles must be sold

Toys R us is having a 38% off sale on all of their backpacks.If a backpack normally cost 22.00 how much will it be on sale
vovangra [49]

Answer:

$13.64

Step-by-step explanation:

The backpack is originally priced at $22. During the sale, the price would be 38% off which means you pay 62% of the original price. We can find this by multiplying by the percent 62 (converted into a decimal).


22(0.62)=13.64


The sale price at the sale is $13.64.
