Revenue = 7.5x - 100
Operation Costs = 5.8x + 79.86

To break even, operation cost = Revenue
⇒ 7.5x - 100 = 5.8x + 79.86
7.5x = 5.8x + 179.86 (Add 100 to both sides)

7.5x - 5.8x = 179.86
1.7x = 179.86
x = 105.8

This implies that the company will need to sell at least 106 items to make a profit.

The inequality that will determine the number of items at need to be sold to make a profit is x ≥ 106

The solution to the inequality is as follows

Revenue = 7.5x - 100
if x =106
Revenue = 7.5(106) - 100
Revenue = 695

Operational Cost = 5.8x + 79.86
if x = 106
Operational Cost = 5.8(106) + 79.86
Operational Cost = 694.66

Profit ≥ (695 - 694.66)
Profit ≥ 0.34

The company must sell at least 106 items to make a profit.

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

Reflection about the vertical line x = 2.5 inches will map the square unto itself

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The area of the square = 25 in²

The orientation of the sides of the square are horizontal and vertical

Therefore, we have;

The area, A, of the square given by the following relation;

A = Side²

A = 25 in²

Therefore;

The area of the square = 25 = side²

The length of the sides of the square = √A = √25 = 5

The length of the sides of the square = 5 inches

The reflection of a figure that maps the figure unto itself is a reflection along the line of symmetry

One of the line of symmetry that divides the square into two similar halves is the vertical straight that passes half way through the horizontal side, which is the point 2.5 inches to the right on the x-axis with the coordinates (2.5, 0)

Therefore, reflection about the line x = 2.5 inches will map the square unto itself.
