A small publishing company is planning to publish a new book. The production costs will include one-time fixed costs (such as ed

iting) and variable costs (such as printing). The one-time fixed costs will total $44,144. The variable costs will be $9.25 per book. The publisher will sell the finished product to bookstores at a price of $24.75 per book. How many books must the publisher produce and sell so that the production costs will equal the money from sales?
Please help.

Answer:

  2848

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost function is ...

  c(n) = 44144 +9.25n

The revenue function is ...

  r(n) = 24.75n

You want revenue to equal cost (the break-even point).

  c(n) = r(n)

  44144 +9.25n = 24.75n

  44144 = 15.50n . . . . . . . . . subtract 9.25n

  44144/15.50 = n = 2848 . . . . . divide by the coefficient of n

The publisher must produce and sell 2848 books to make production cost equal to sales.

Complete the equation for the standard form of the line that has an x-intercept of –4 and a y-intercept of 3
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

The equation for the standard form of the line will be:

  • 3x + (-4y) = -12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

  • x-intercept = –4
  • y-intercept = 3

The equation of a line in standard form

  • Ax + By = C

where A is a positive integer and B, C are integers

We know the equation of a line in  slope-intercept form

y = mx+b

where m is the slope and b the y-intercept

To calculate the slope, use the gradient formula

m = y₂-y₁ / x₂-x₁

let  

(x₁, y₁) = (-4, 0)             ∵ x-intercept = (-4, 0)

(x₂, y₂) = (0, 3)              ∵ y-intercept = (0, 3)

m = y₂-y₁ / x₂-x₁

    = (3 - 0) / (0 - (-4))

    = 3 / 4

Thus, the equation in slope-intercept form:

y = mx+b

y = 3/4x + 3

  • Writing in standard form

Multiply y = 3/4x + 3 by 4

4y = 3x + 12

3x-4y = -12

3x + (-4y) = -12

Thus, the equation for the standard form of the line will be:

  • 3x + (-4y) = -12

I do not know if is a function or not. Please explain
bezimeni [28]
It is a function because in a function the x's do not repeat. So since there are no two numbers in the x column that are the same, yes it is a function.

The slope, m, of a linear equation can be found using the formula <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=m%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7By_2%20-%
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

Answer c: m(x2 - x1) + y1 = y2

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Let´s start writting the formula

m = \frac{y2 -y1}{x2-x1}

If we multiplicate both sides by (x₂ - x₁):

m(x2 - x1) = y2 - y1

Then if we add y₁ to both sides of the equation:

m(x2 - x1) + y1 = y2

Then, the right answer is the answer c)

Have a nice day!
