Production cost = one time cost + variable costs
Let the number of published books for equal production costs be n.
Using the first method:
production cost = 18,853 + 19.75n
Using the second method:
production cost = 64,853 + 8.25n
Now, we need the two production costs to be equal:
18,853 + 19.75n = 64,853 + 8.25n
Solve for n as follows:
18,853 + 19.75n = 64,853 + 8.25n
19.75n - 8.25n = 64,853 - 18,853
11.5n = 46000
n = 46000/11.5
n = 4000 books
Area of trapezoid = 1/2(b1+b2)h
b1 and b2 are top and bottom bases
so b1 = 15.8 and b2 = 21.8
h is height so h = 11.7
so
A = 1/2(15.8 + 21.8)(11.7)
A = 1/2(37.6)(11.7)
A = 219.96

Hello there!
The question asks us to solve using the substitution method. The equations given are:


We are given a value for y, which is x-8. Substituting
into the first equation of the system of equation gives us:


Use the distributive property to help simplify and solve for x

Combine like terms

Add 24 to both sides


Finally, divide both sides by 5

Now, let's use
in the equation
to find the value of y



Now, we have the values x=5 and y=-3. Putting these values into an ordered pair gives us the answer (5,-3), which is the last answer choice.
Let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!
