How many computers must the AB Computer Company sell to break even? Let x be the number of computers.

Mathematics

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

so

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

Try making a grid like this. Apologies for the terrible drawing and handwriting. It represents all possible results of rolling two dice and summing their values. The blue column and yellow row represent the values of each die, and the green numbers reptesent their sums.
First, you can see that there are 36 possible values. Second, it's easy to see how many results are greater than 9, since they're all in one corner. And last, you can see just how many are even and how many are odd. Remember to reduce your fractions in the end.

The temperature of magnesium must be at least 650 degrees for the metal to melt. A sample of magnesium is currently 255 degrees.
Agata [3.3K]
The total temperature of the magnesium sample is its original temperature plus the temperature increase which is dependent on time. This total should exceed 650 degrees. Thus, the inequality that best describes the condition is,                
                                        255 + 10m ≥ 650
                                                   m ≥ 39.5
The answer is letter b.
