Answer: The break even point is when they have sold 16 books and have made $288
Step-by-step explanation: The costs are modeled in the equation y = 12x + 96. x is the number of books sold.
The earnings are modeled by he equation y = 18x.
Substitute 18x for y and solve for x.
18x = 12x + 96 Subtract 12x from both sides.
6x = 96 Divide both sides by 6
x = 16
Substitute into the original equations to solve for y
y = 12(16) + 96
y = 192 + 96
Y = 288
y = 18(16)
y = 288
the number is - 1
let the number be n then 6 times the number is 6n and added to -4 is
- 4 + 6n = 10n ( equal to 10 times the number )
subtract 6n from both sides
- 4 = 4n ( divide both sides by 4 )
= n , hence n = - 1

Answer:
11 1/12
Step-by-step explanation:
6 1/3 = 19/3
7 1/4 = 29/4
2 1/2 = 5/2
19/3 + 29/4 - 5/2
We must find the LCM of 3, 4, and 2. This happens to be 12
3*4 = 12
4*3 = 12
2*6 = 12
Multiply each fraction by the factor that'll get it to 12.
19/3 * 4/4 = 76/12
29/4 * 3/3 = 87/12
5/2 * 6/6 = 30/12
Now go through the problem
76/12 + 87/12 - 30/12
76 + 87 = 163
163/12 - 30/12
163 - 30 = 133
133/12
Simplify
133/12 = 11.0833... or 11 1/12
Hope this helps.
