Answer:
The company needs to sell 9000 units in order to turn a profit of $40,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello, great question. These types are questions are the beginning steps for learning more advanced Algebraic Equations.
From the question we can get some important hints before creating our formula. First the Selling Price will be profit so it will be a positive number, but both unit cost and fixed costs are losses so they will be negative values in our formula. Also our formula will depend on the amount sold which we can represent as the variable x. With these hints we can create our formula as the following
Where:
- x is the amount of units created and sold
- y is the total profit after selling x-units
Now that we have our formula the question asks how many units need to be sold in order to earn a profit of $40,000. We can calculate this by replacing the $40,000 with y and solving for x like so,
.... add 400,000 on both sides
... divide both sides by 40
The company needs to sell 9000 units in order to turn a profit of $40,000

Answer:
(b) 15.32
Step-by-step explanation:
You can use your triangle sense to answer this.
The side x will always be shorter than the hypotenuse, 20. This eliminates the last two choices.
If the angle is 45°, then the sides are equal at about 0.707 times the length of the hypotenuse. That would make them 0.707×20 = 14.14. Since the angle is greater than 45°, the opposite side will be greater than 14.14. Only one answer choice fits between 14 and 20: the second choice -- 15.32.

The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA reminds you of the relation ...
Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse
sin(50°) = x/20
x = 20×sin(50°) . . . . multiply by 20 to find x
x ≈ 15.32 . . . . . . . . . use your calculator to evaluate
