In this case if x<100 George will be losing money.  So he will only earn a profit when he sells more than 100 DVDs.  Essentially (x-100) represents his break-even point.

Answer:

C)  

That in order to make zero profit he must sell 100 DVDs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is one of the factors then it will meet the zero product property. Since x stands for the number of DVDS he sells then the profit must be 0 when this factor = 0. Therefore, (x - 100) means That in order to make zero profit he must sell 100 DVDs.

Radda [10]

Answer:

the question is incomplete, so I looked for a similar one:

<em>After the release of radioactive material into the atmosphere  from a nuclear power plant, the hay was contaminated by iodine  131 ( half-life, 8 days). If it is all right to feed the hay to cows  when 10% of the iodine 131 remains, how long did the farmers  need to wait to use this hay? </em>

iodine's half life (we are given x, we need to find b):

0.5A₀ = A₀eᵇˣ

x = 8 days

we eliminate A₀ from both sides

0.5 = eᵇ⁸

ln 0.5 = ln eᵇ⁸

-0.69315 = b8

b = -0.69315 / 8 = -0.08664

since the farmers need to wait until only 10% of the iodine remains (we already calculated b, now we need to find x):

0.1A₀ = A₀eᵇˣ

0.1 = eᵇˣ

ln 0.1 = bx

where b = -0.08664

x = ln 0.1 / -0.08664  = -2.302585 / -0.08664  = 26.58 days
