Answer:

a.The profit is 40000 when sales are 10000 units.

b.Break-even point quantity and revenue=6000

c.When profits are at P9,000, sales are 6900

d.Fixed cost must decrease

e.The volume of sales to cover the fixed cost is 1500 units

f.If the firm want to break-even at a lower number of units, then the price will rice

Step-by-step explanation:

a.Profit is the difference between sales and cost

Profit= price* sales -((Variable cost * sales) +Fixed cost)

Profit when sales are 10000 units must be

P=40*10000-((30*10000)+60000)

P=400000-(300000+60000)=400000-360000

Profit=40000

The profit is 40000 when sales are 10000 units.

b.The break-even point quantity and revenue is when profit=0

So,  Profit= price* sales -((Variable cost * sales) +Fixed cost)

If profit is 0, then (Variable cost * sales) +Fixed cost =price* sales

30x +60000=40x

10x=60000

x=60000/10=6000

Break-even point quantity and revenue=6000

c. Profit= price* sales -((Variable cost * sales) +Fixed cost)

9000=40x -(30x +60000)=40x -30x -60000)

9000 +60000=40x-30x

69000=10x

x=6900 units

d. break even at sales volume of 500 units

(Variable cost * sales) +Fixed cost =price* sales

30*500+FC=40*500

1500+FC=2000

FC=2000-1500

FC=500 Fixed cost must decrease

e.The volume of sales to cover the fixed cost

To only cover fixed cost, sales have to be 60000

Fixed cost =price* sales

Sales=Fixed cost/price

Sales 60000/40=1500 units

f. If the firm want to break-even at a lower number of units, then the price will rice

Remember that break-even formula is

(Variable cost * sales) +Fixed cost =price* sales

Variable an fixed cost remain constant, if sales go down,  then price must go up.

The graph below shows the height of a tunnel f(x), in feet, depending on the distance from one side of the tunnel x, in feet:
denis23 [38]
Part A) x-intercepts simply show that when the value of the function is zero. Vertex coordinates show that when the function obtains its maximum value. When x=50, function obtains its maximum value and it's 75. The function is increasing in the interval (0, 50) and decreasing in the interval (50, 100). In regard to the height and distance of the tunnel, these numbers show that decreasing and increasing intervals are symmetric. Each number from the intervals has its own pair in the corresponding interval and they are located in the same distance from the midpoint (50,75)

Part B) In order to calculate the average rate of change, we can first write the function. Using the information about the x-intercept and the vertex coordinates, we find that our function is f(x)=-0.03x^{2}+3x.
Plugging 15 and 35 in x, we can find the values of the function, i.e. 
f(15)=38.25 and f(35)=68.25.
Then, the average change is \frac{68.25-38.25}{35-15}=1.5

HELP HELP !!!! PLEASE I NEED HELP WITH THIS PROBLEM !!!
Vesnalui [34]
This one is best done by elimination:

We need to start 4 meters away, so B is clearly wrong. 

We first move towards Mr. Wilson (i.e. distance is decreasing) so A is wrong.

Our speed is faster on the way back, so the two sloped section must have differing slopes, so D is wrong.
(D also doesn't start at 4, it's wrong for two reasons.)

Only C is left.

We can check each part to make sure. First we start at 4m, then move away, then stay still (zero slope) for three seconds, then move back faster (higher slope). All parts check out ok.
