Answer:

The Company AB must sell 116 computers to break even

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$R(x)=1.5x$ -----> equation A

$C(x)=145+\frac{1}{4}x$ ----> equation B

where

C is the cost function

R is the revenue function

x is the number of computers sold

we know that

Break even is when the cost is equal to the revenue

equate equation A and equation B

$1.5x=145+\frac{1}{4}x$

Solve for x

subtract 1/4x both sides

$1.5x-\frac{1}{4}x=145$

$1.5x-0.25x=145$

$1.25x=145$

Divide by 1.25 both sides

$x=116$

therefore

The Company AB must sell 116 computers to break even

Solve 2 cube root 8x+9=5

Alborosie

2 times the cube root of 8x+9=5
divide both sides by 2
cube root of 8x+9=2.5
cube everybody (put to 3rd power)
8x+9=2.5^3
8x+9=15.625
minus 9 both sides
8x=6.625
divie both sides by 8
x=0.828125

write the logarithm as a sum or difference of logarithms. simplify each term as much as possible. log4(6ab)

Dominik [7]

The logarithm written as a sum of logarithm and simplified as much as possible is $\frac{1}{2} +log_{4 }3 + log_{4 }a + log_{4 }b$

<h3>Simplifying Logarithms</h3>

From the question, we are to write the given logarithm expression as a sum or difference of logarithms

The given logarithm is

$log_{4 }6ab$

This can be written as

$log_{4 }6 \times a \times b$

From one of the rules of logarithm, we have that

$log_{x }yz= log_{x }y + log_{x }z$

Thus,

$log_{4 }6 \times a \times b$ becomes

$log_{4 }6 + log_{4 }a + log_{4 }b$

This can be further simplified into

$log_{4 }3 \times 2 + log_{4 }a + log_{4 }b$

$log_{4 }3 + log_{4 }2 + log_{4 }a + log_{4 }b$

If desired, this can be further simplified into

$log_{4 }3 + log_{2^{2} }2 + log_{4 }a + log_{4 }b$

$log_{4 }3 + \frac{1}{2} log_{2}2 + log_{4 }a + log_{4 }b$

$log_{4 }3 + \frac{1}{2} (1)+ log_{4 }a + log_{4 }b$

$\frac{1}{2} +log_{4 }3 + log_{4 }a + log_{4 }b$

Hence, the logarithm written as a sum of logarithm and simplified as much as possible is $\frac{1}{2} +log_{4 }3 + log_{4 }a + log_{4 }b$
